  1. Hurt, care not known

    Made Jul 16, 2023, sent to the company Jul 18, 2023, published by CPSC Aug 17, 2023

    The product, in the report: Crystal Mermaid Terarrium UPC 0 9263331767 9

    We were following the toys instructions and after 2 minutes we noticed a very chemical smell that is an aromatic solvent, possibly dichlorobenzene. We then noticed our daughter had a red rash around her eyes with raised bumps, akin to a sensitizing response to harsh chemicals. The product smelled very strongly of solvents, the only reason we know is because my husband is an organic chemist.
