Johnson & Johnson has decided to stop selling skin whitening creams popular in Asia and the Middle East, it has said, after such products have come under renewed social pressure in recent weeks amid a global debate about racial inequality.

Johnson & Johnson will stop selling its Clean & Clear Fairness line of products, sold in India, a spokeswoman told Reuters on Friday.

News that it would pull its Neutrogena Fine Fairness line, available in Asia and the Middle East, was reported earlier this month.
