'Dance Moms' Alum JoJo Siwa Has A Makeup Kit At Claire's That Has Asbestos In It
Bubbly teen sensation JoJo Siwa, known for her former role on Lifetime's "Dance Moms," may now be known for something a bit darker. The 16-year-old recently partnered with Claire's, the tween accessories giant, to develop a makeup kit that includes eye shadow, lip gloss, and nail polish.
However, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has now determined that the kits are dangerous after they tested positive for trace amounts of asbestos fibers. This prompted the FDA to issue a warning, telling anyone who had the product that they needed to stop using it immediately. This was followed by a quick recall from Claire's shelves nationwide, as reported by People.
According to Claire's website, the kit was available for purchase from July 2018 through May 2019, both in store and online. The affected makeup kit (Batch/Lot No. S180109) was voluntarily pulled from the shelves of the retail chain, according to an issued statement, "out of an abundance of caution."
"Claire's stands behind the safety of this item and all other Claire's cosmetics items, as such small trace amounts are considered acceptable under European and Canadian cosmetic safety regulations," the company said in a statement.
Siwa has yet to issue a comment. Anyone with questions concerning the recall can contact Claire's here.
