A Swiss firm is using tissue from aborted babies to make anti-wrinkle creams.

 

Debi VinnedgeThe process creating this cream was produced at the University of Luasanne from a 14-week-gestation aborted male baby. Debi Vinnedge, executive director of a ministry called Children of God for Life, discovered the happening.
 
"There's a company by the name of Neocutis, and they make several different types of skin care creams," she explains. "They have a product called PSP, which is a skin protein, actually purified skin proteins, that are taken from the tissue from an aborted baby."

However, "Neocutis has put this boldly right on their own website and in their package material," she affirms. According to the Neocutis website, the technology for the product "relies on the use of cultured fetal skin cells obtained from a cell bank."
 
Vinnedge is encouraging people to express their outrage directly to the San Francisco-based company, and provides information for doing so on the Children of God for Life website. The ministry also plans to promote cosmetic companies that do not use tissue from aborted babies.
