Chemical Formaldehyde in CREAMSILK and SUNSILK. This is Girl Power?!!! Formaldehyde is FORMALIN for EMBALMING!

I received an email saying that Creamsilk and Sunsilk have formaldehyde and the person called up Unilever and the company said its just a small amount. My goodness, but if i take it regularly, doesnt it accumulate? I am alarmed bec. recently the govt has been monitoring products from China as well like candies, foodstuff with formaldehyde. Btw, formaldehyde is FORMALIN. The chemical used to embalm and preserve corpses.. Eeewww...dont buy all their products if they feel that "this is just a small amount"..

check your sachet and bottles, what im saying is true (though diff. countries may differ; im referring to sachets/bottles from some countries in Asia) - I checked my shampoo and its says there - FORMALDEHDYE!!

IF ENOUGH PEOPLE CALL UP THE COMPANY, THEY WILL TAKE ACTION. LETS NOT ALLOW BIG COMPANIES TO TAKE US CONSUMERS FOR GRANTED.

Update:

to add, remember when some chemicals like pesticides were banned? and we acquire pesticides thru the veggies we eat which is ACQUIRED INDIRECTLY. What more if we place the chemical directly to our bodies which seeps in -in this case our head/brain? Btw, Unilever's hotline # is 1-800-10-5647258
