Charges against the celebrities involved in Magic Skin product review advertisements became clear as the Food and Drugs Administration has already supplied information to police, he said. The operation came after authorities received complaints that around 200 stores at the market were openly selling illegal products, including the brands Magic Skin and Lyn. Magic Skin was found to be producing cosmetics and food supplements which were both substandard and unlicensed.
