ARE DOVE SHAMPOO SAFE?

Unilever recently recalled 19 popular aerosol dry shampoos from the United States market after it was found that the shampoos contain a chemical called Benzene and may cause cancer. Unilever maintained that it recalled the shampoos out of caution as no adverse effect was reported. The recall order came after the US Food and Drug Administration’s observation and covers products like Nexxus, Suave and Tigi which makes Rockaholic and Bed Head dry shampoos. Benzene is often termed as a human carcinogen and may cause cancers including leukaemia and blood cancer of the bone marrow.

Dove’s Beauty Message

“We believe beauty should be a source of confidence, and not anxiety. That’s why we are here to help women everywhere develop a positive relationship with the way they look, helping them raise their self-esteem and realize their full potential.”

The list of affected products include:

• Dove Dry Shampoo Volume and Fullness
  
• Dove Dry Shampoo Fresh Coconut
• Dove Dry Shampoo Fresh and Floral
• Dove Dry Shampoo Ultra Clean
• Dove Dry Shampoo Invisible
• Dove Dry Shampoo Detox and Purify
• Dove Dry Shampoo Clarifying Charcoal
• Dove Dry Shampoo Go Active    

According to US FDA, the Dove dry shampoos - particularly manufactured before October 2021 - contain higher levels of benzene that may cause “leukemia and blood cancer of the bone marrow and blood disorders which can be life threatening”.
