  1. No one hurt

    Made Mar 7, 2023, sent to the company Sep 28, 2023, published by CPSC Oct 13, 2023

    The product, in the report: Basic Cotton Rounds Nail Polish and Makeup Remover Pads - 300ct - up & up™ White, 2.25” in diameter Comes in one plastic package with 3 other plastic packages inside of it, each with 100 cotton rounds, totaling 300. The outer packaging says “Gentle, effective option for removal of eye makeup” TIN: 14794129 DPCI: 052-14-0034 UPC: 048341008385

    I purchased the 300ct pack of Basic Cotton Rounds Nail Polish and Makeup Remover Pads - 300ct - up & up™ on 3/1/2023 from Target. I am making this report as their encouraged use is for eye makeup, but they are extremely dangerous for the eyes. I used two of the cotton rounds to remove eye makeup and realized they are covered in concerning stains and have hard plastic pieces in them. I checked the rest of the cotton rounds in the package, and they all have the same stains and hard plastic-like pieces. I looked at reviews and you can see multiple reviewers have been scratched on their faces and eyes. This product is marketed as being a good option to remove eye makeup, and it’s a serious eye injury just waiting to happen. I can’t speak to what the stains are or if they are a true hazard, but the product is extremely concerning. I am lucky I was not injured or made sick by using this product.

  2. First aid

    Made Oct 10, 2013, sent to the company Oct 24, 2013, published by CPSC Nov 15, 2013

    The product, in the report: it’s a foot file to scrape off callouses of the foot. I have pictures.

    please beware of this foot file! (2 pics) I got it at Target and used it gently on my feet for mild calluses (after soaking). Just part of the regular upkeep! It CUT MY FEET with its sharpness!!! OUCH!!! I didn’t realize it at first, but when I examined the material, it felt like GLASS shards!!! I don’t know how they can sell such a BAD PRODUCT. (yes, made in China) I didn’t have my pumice stone, so that’s why I got this darn thing in the first place.
