Eco Lips recalls vegan lip balm with mislabeled active ingredients. The product contains different ingredients than listed on the label, which may cause confusion about safety.
Mislabeling: The active ingredient list on the label does not match the product's actual ingredients Specifically, the label states Octinoxate 7.5% and Oxybenzone 3%, while the product therein is made with Octinoxate 7.5%, Octisalate 5%, Octocrylene 5%, and Avobenzone 3%.
Eco Lips is recalling their Higher Education Make Out Ready Vegan Lip Balm due to mislabeling. The product contains ingredients not listed on the label, which could lead to confusion about its safety and intended use.
The label lists Octinoxate 7.5% and Oxybenzone 3%, but the actual product contains Octinoxate 7.5%, Octisalate 5%, Octocrylene 5%, and Avobenzone 3%. This mismatch means the product's sun protection properties may differ from what's advertised, potentially affecting how well it protects against UV rays.
Anyone who owns this lip balm, especially those using it for sun protection. People with sensitive skin or allergies to the ingredients may be at slightly higher risk.
