“Actually — I like my freckles.”

China has banned TV ads for a freckle remover, touted as being so good it could remove spots from fish, when it not only killed fish but led to rashes, blisters and skin inflammation on the humans who tried it.

Advertisements promoting “Magic Freckle Removing Gel,” produced by a Shanghai company, used a celebrity, bogus experts and fish to endorse the cosmetic, but fish exposed to the gel by a research institute later died from poisoning, the Beijing News said.

“(The institute) carried out a test washing the fish’s spots in the gel. Two fish died successively on the third and sixth days,” the paper said, citing an investigative report on Chinese state television.

Claims that the cleanser was produced by an American company using “American technology” were also found to be false.

China’s trade watchdog, the State Administration of Commerce and Industry, had banned the ad and ordered provincial offices to investigate, the paper said.

The advertisements were no longer on television, but Internet sales were still available, the paper said.

This crap will probably show up in WalMart, Walgreens and the center for serious medical treatment — eBay — in the next 2 weeks: “As seen on TV!“
