Nigeria’s National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has published an update to an alert notifying Nigerians of a recall for Nivea’s Black&White Invisible roll-on deodorant. The regulatory body has now declared that products manufactured in Nigeria are safe to use.
According to a report published by The Cable, an investigation carried out by the regulatory body found that the product in question manufactured in Nigeria does not contain the non-compliant ingredient BMHCA.
Beiersdorf clarified, per The Cable, that the batch subject to the recall expired in January 2022, was fully compliant with EU regulations at the time, and has not been marketed in Nigeria. The deodorant has since been reformulated to be Lilial-free following the ingredient’s 2022 ban.
