Brands International recalls 8 fl oz oatmeal moisturizing body lotion due to mold contamination in non-sterile products. Affected lots manufactured in Canada with specific expiration dates.
Microbial Contamination of Non-Sterile Products: confirmed presence of mold contamination
Brands International is recalling their Oatmeal Daily Moisturizing Body Lotion (8 fl oz) because mold was found in the product. This poses a health risk as mold can cause skin irritation or infection, especially for people with sensitive skin.
The lotion contains mold due to improper manufacturing processes. Mold can grow in non-sterile products and may cause skin irritation, allergic reactions, or infections in individuals with sensitive skin or weakened immune systems.
People who own or use the recalled lotion, particularly those with sensitive skin or compromised immune systems, are at higher risk of irritation or infection from the mold.
Check for the product name 'Oatmeal Daily Moisturizing Body Lotion (1.3% Dimethicone)', 8 fl oz size, HDPE bottle packaging, and 12 bottles per case. The affected lots have specific expiration dates: Lot# 24092009 expires 03/27 and Lot# 24094010 expires 04/27.
Identify the lot number and expiration date on the bottle to determine if it's affected.
If the product matches the recalled lots, discard it immediately to avoid potential skin irritation or infection.
