“Out of an abundance of caution,” Claire’s Stores, Inc. today announced a voluntary recall of 3 of their cosmetic products: Claire’s Eye Shadows, Claire’s Compact Powder and Claire’s Contour Palette.
“We initiated this voluntary recall after testing by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration indicated the possible presence of asbestos fibers in product samples from one lot of each product,” the company said in a press release. Inhalation of asbestos over time has been linked to serious adverse health consequences.
The products are no longer available in Claire’s Stores locations but may still be in the homes of consumers the company warned.
