Experts have identified an alopecia remedy with a non-existent substance on sale
Izvestia has found out that a cosmetic product with a non-existent drug complex Xynoxin is being actively sold in Russia under the guise of a baldness remedy. The declaration of conformity (which allows trading the product in the EAEU and Russia in particular) of this lotion was issued based on the results of research of the Light Group laboratory of the Certification Group testing center.
The eponymous center in 2023 confirmed the quality of non-existent sneakers generated by artificial intelligence. This time, on the basis of tests conducted by Certification Group, the individual entrepreneur was issued a declaration of conformity for a cosmetic product against alopecia - Vikinord lotion for hair and beard growth. Its composition allegedly includes a certain "American complex" "Xynoxin", which promotes hair growth. As Izvestia found out, such a remedy does not exist.
"In the open registers of cosmetic components, international and Russian, there is no such component as "Xinoxin" or Xinoxin. What is Xinoxin - no one knows," confirmed pharmaceutical safety expert Alexander Nosenko.
However, "Xinoxin" has an official website, which says that "the innovative formula of Xinoxin for men stops hair loss, restores, strengthens and stimulates the growth of new hair, gives additional volume". Also on the site is a certificate for Xinoxin, indicating the manufacturer - allegedly a U.S. company called Unixinos LLC with a branch in China.
"Such a company does not exist, the official domain of the site is registered in Russia," Nosenko noted.
Vikinord is sold on the Internet together with a mesoroller and pipette for 719 rubles with a discount (if you believe the seller, earlier the booster cost 2.7 thousand rubles).
