A leading retailer in Singapore has withdrawn a cosmetics range with a Jesus theme after complaints from local Roman Catholics, local media report.
The range, named Looking Good for Jesus, was on sale at three Top Shop outlets in the Asian city state. Catholics complained the cosmetics’ marketing was disrespectful, full of sexual innuendo and trivialised Christianity.
About 15% of Singapore’s 4.4 million population is Christian.
The products included a “Virtuous vanilla” lip balm and a “Get Tight with Christ” hand and body cream, featuring a picture of Christ flanked by two adoring women.
