I almost never use any of these products anywhere anyway and travel with my own (or ask the hotel to stock my favorite). I recently saw that even the Organic Pharmacy now partners with Groupe GM.

I assume most think that only Chinese amenities are not actually produced by the brand on the label, but this is the same everywhere. I don't think the stuff there is especially bad, just the same harmful ingredients du jour.
Thanks for a nuanced answer. It’s everywhere . same here , carry my own stuff.
Organic pharmacy works with Groupe GM ? ... so the Six Senses Organic pharmacy bath amenities are not direct ?
