The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has announced a recall of nearly 2,800 containers of First Aid Beauty’s Ultra Repair Cream in Coconut Vanilla due to a “Current Good Manufacturing Practice deviation.”
According to First Aid Beauty, the product was intended to be quarantined but was mistakenly sold exclusively through the company’s website.
In response, First Aid Beauty has directly contacted affected customers, offering a replacement product — Ultra Repair Cream Grapefruit — and instructing users to discontinue use of the recalled product and dispose of it.
The recall applies only to the Coconut Vanilla version, with no other Ultra Repair Cream products affected.
Earlier this year, the FDA issued a recall for nearly 80,000 pounds of Kirkland Signature Sweet Cream Butter, produced in Texas for Costco, due to an allergen labeling issue.
The recall, classified as Class II, was announced on November 7 and affects 79,200 pounds of both salted and unsalted varieties of the butter.
According to the FDA, while the product packaging lists “cream” as an ingredient, it fails to include the “Contains Milk” allergy warning required for those with milk allergies.
Kirkland Signature is Costco’s private label, and this butter is manufactured by Continental Dairy Facilities Southwest, LLC. The recalled items were produced and distributed in Texas.
Over 56,000 Covid-19 antigen rapid tests were also recalled in the United States due to false results, according to a statement released by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) at the time.
The FDA was not provided with “adequate data to show the test works correctly.”
The Skippack Medical Lab SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Tests were distributed by Universal Meditech Inc and were manufactured from October to December 2021.
The FDA warned that the tests should not be used as they were likely to produce inaccurate results.
