Eight beauty salons in Lloret de Mar sanctioned over dangerous products

The police operation in Lloret de Mar has uncovered serious irregularities in beauty centres. Unlabelled products and banned substances are putting clients on alert. The authorities are stepping up checks to ensure safety. The seized cosmetics have been taken out of circulation.

Safety in beauty treatments is an increasing concern for those who frequent aesthetic centres in the province of Girona. This week, a joint operation by the Guardia Civil and local police in Lloret de Mar has exposed a worrying reality: eight beauty salons have been sanctioned after around fifty infringements related to the products they used were detected.

Officers found cosmetics without any labelling whatsoever, some with prohibited ingredients and others that directly posed a risk to clients’ health. The operation has involved not only the seizure and sealing of all irregular goods, but also the imposition of fines on those responsible for the establishments.

The news has generated concern among people seeking beauty services in the area, especially because of the lack of previous checks and the ease with which dangerous products can reach professionals’ hands. The authorities have announced that they will strengthen inspections of this type of business to prevent similar situations from happening again.

In a context in which demand for beauty treatments continues to grow, trust in aesthetic centres becomes a key factor for users. The operation in Lloret de Mar highlights the importance of demanding guarantees and transparency in the products used.

Regulation of cosmetic products in Spain is strict and requires all items to be properly labelled, with clear information about their composition and origin. In addition, the rules prohibit the use of certain substances considered dangerous to health. Regular checks in beauty salons seek to protect both consumers and professionals, although the proliferation of illegal products remains a challenge for the authorities.
