Why Are Some Anti-Aging Skin Care Companies Risking Our Health?

Recently, the FDA seized Jan Marini Skin Research's (JMSR) Age Intervention Eyelash product. This then caused Athena to withdraw it's current stock of Revitalash and begin the reformulation process. Let me clarify that the FDA seized JMSR's dicontinued eye lash conditioner. The discontinued product contained bimatoprost, an FDA regulated glaucoma drug not indicated for cosmetics. The original formula was launched in October of 2005, but JMSR was forced to reformulate in September of 2006 with a nearly identical product -- without bimatoprost, but instead latanoprost. JMSR still firmly denies either formula posed health risks, but the FDA said that the product may cause swelling of the retina, which could lead to decreased vision.

Revitalash, which was formulated by an ophthalmologist with the highly concerning ingredient bimatoprost, continued to sell it's product until the recent seizure. My question is why are some anti-aging skin care companies risking our health? If something poses a threat, shouldn't it be tested until all concerns are resolved? Are some skin care companies worried more about their bottom line than their client's safety? My next big question is, if Athena withdrawled the Revitalash, why is Skinstore.com still selling the product, even with a holiday promotion? Does anyone care about it's customers?
