Serious risk
Fancy-dress wig
The wig poses a risk of burns due to its high flammability. Moreover, the plastic of the packaging is too thin: If a child plays with it, the plastic might cover the nose and mouth, causing the child to suffocate. The product does not comply with the Toy Safety Directive and the relevant European standards EN 71-1 and EN 71-2.
Amber bracelet
The cord can easily break and release the beads. A small child may put them in the mouth and choke.
Travel plug adaptor
One pin of a plug can be inserted leaving the other live pin accessible. The product does not comply with the relevant national standard.
Soap bubble toy
The soap solution is contaminated with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (measured value 4.4 x 10? cfu/ml) and can cause skin rush and infections when in contact with eyes and damaged skin. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive.
Passenger car
Wooden cot
The bars of the cot can detach and a child could fall through the gap created. In addition, the gaps between the bars at the base of the cot are too large. While playing a child could put its arms through the bars and become trapped. The product does not comply with the relevant European standard EN 716.
Silicone remover/cleaning agent
The product contains 10-20% 1-Ethylpyrrolidine-2-on, which is toxic to reproduction, and (R)-p-Mentha-1,8-diene, which is skin irritating, but it lacks the required labelling and warnings. The safety data sheet does not properly state the risks connected with the product, thus users are not sufficiently informed of the dangers of the product. The product does not comply with the REACH regulation and with the Regulation on the classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures (CLP).
Ink for permanent make-up
The ink contains nickel (measured value: 22 mg/kg), arsenic (measured value: 6.8 mg/kg) and lead (measured value: 3.3 mg/kg). Nickel can cause skin irritation and induce sensitisation or elicit allergic responses, arsenic is carcinogenic and exposure to lead is harmful for human health and can cause developmental neurotoxicity.
Hood hair dryer
The product overheats and could burst into flames during use causing burns to the scalp, head and hands and leaving live parts accessible that could lead to an electric shock if touched by users. The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60335.
