DE LAURIER · Bath milk - Deliciously creamy
The product poses a chemical risk because on the basis of the product's presentation and appearance, consumers, especially small children and elderly persons, could mistake it for a foodstuff and therefore put it in their mouth and swallow it. This could result in serious damage to their health due to the high surfactant content. The product contains the anionic surfactant, sodium laureth sulphate, measured at 12.5%. There is no bittering agent in the product. The product does not comply with the Directive 87/357/EEC on products which, appearing to be other than they are, endanger the health or safety of consumers.

Product description
Transparent plastic bottle (height: 17 cm) similar to certain milk bottles on the market. The bottle cap is made of white plastic. The bottle contains a mildly viscous, white, lightly perfumed liquid. From the label and the overall presentation of the product (appearance, shape and packaging) it would be perfectly reasonable to assume that the bottle contains a milk drink.
