You Tube superstarJoJo Siwa,known for her upbeat, online persona and sparkly attitude, has just earned some not so sparkly news.
The 16-year-old singer and dancer partnered with accessories store giant, Claire’s, to bring her a one-of-kind make up kit, which contained eyeshadow, two lip glosses and nail polish, to her teenage fans. But now, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has deemed the fun-filled makeup kit as dangerous after it was tested positive for asbestos.
The FDA wasted no time inissuing a warningto stop using the product it was quickly recalled from the Claire’s shelves.
On June 6, the FDA released a formal statement about the product’s recall reasoning on Twitter.
“Today, the FDA is releasing new results from its continued testing of cosmetic products for asbestos & is warning consumers to not use 2 additional products that have tested positive for asbestos & have been recalled,” the statement read along with an image of Siwa’s metallic, heart-shaped set.
According toUSA TODAY, The FDA announcement regarding Siwa’s makeup kit comes just three months after other Claire’s products were pulled from the shelvesfor also containing asbestos.
And while Claire’s and the FDA has spoken out about the product, Siwa has yet to make a statement on the subject.
