FAMOUS anime character Sailor Moon has been recruited by Japan to raise awareness about sexually transmitted infections such as HIV and syphilis.
The country's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare is planning to distribute 60,000 pink, heart-shaped educational boxes (pictured below) to launch the push.
They have also reworked Sailor Moon's catch cry "In the name of the moon, I will punish you!" to "If you don't get tested, I will punish you!"
Do it for Sailor Moon, stay safe from STIs!
ALOE VERA gel containing no traces of aloe vera?
Just what the consumer has always wanted - not!
Well, it's out there on the shelves of some US stores.
Bloomberg is reporting that samples of store brand aloe gel from Wal-Mart, Target and CVS showed no indication of aloe vera present at all when they underwent lab testing.
What the samples did contain though is a cheaper element called maltodextrin, a sugar sometimes used to imitate aloe.
Good luck soothing your sunburn with that!
