European Court of Justice rules disinfectants cannot be labeled "skin friendly" due to potential misleading advertising.

The European Union's top court has ruled that disinfectants cannot be advertised as "skin friendly". The European Court of Justice made this decision after a German federal court sought its opinion in a case against a drugstore chain that sold a disinfectant product with a label claiming it was "skin friendly". The court found that the term "skin friendly" has positive connotations and may imply that the product could be beneficial for the skin, but this could lead to misleading advertising.
