Cosmetics are recalled when they cause short term and long term skin irritation or other signs of illness. Whatever the type of recall may be, it typically occurs because the company producing the recalled product in Los Angeles or San Diego did not take adequate measures to ensure the safety of their products. Consumers who have developed illnesses or been otherwise injured because of defective products often hire personal injury attorneys to help them file damages claims against these negligent companies.
One of the most recent cases of product recall occurred within the last three weeks. The Food and Drug Administration advised customers all over the nation to desist from using face paints that have been reported to be contaminated with mold and yeast growth. The warning came out because of mild and severe skin rashes that were reportedly a result of using defective face paints. Rashes were not the only problem reported with the use of the paints, however. Burning and swelling were also symptoms that caused pain and irritation to many of the victims.
The defective face paints were first discovered when a group of Girl Scouts attended a function where face painting was a popular activity in which they could participate. Many of the girls did, in fact, get their faces painted, many of which experienced redness, burning, and swelling on their faces soon after. A local school nurse in the area noticed that there were many girls that had the same rash-like symptoms on their faces and eventually discovered the link connecting these students—the Girl Scouts function. Many of these girls reported that the rash lasted up to and even longer than two weeks. Some stated that after a few days, the rash and its accompanying symptoms disappeared, only to return when the girls went outside into the sun.
As this has happened so recently, it has not yet been determined whether or not the parents of these girls will file a product liability claim with personal injury attorneys. Many people who become the unsuspecting victims of products that are later recalled because of defects go to personal injury attorneys for help with the wounds they’ve received. Although the rashes that these girls sustained from the face paints may not have required a hospital visit, many people do end up in critical condition because of defective products. This can lead to huge medical bills that can financially devastate a victim and their family. In these instances, personal injury attorneys can help victims receive monetary compensation from those who produced or sold the defective product. This compensation is then used to cover medical costs and other expenses incurred from the victim’s injuries.
