The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

    The product, in the report: Olay Beauty Bar soap 3.17oz. White 4 Pk already used 1 bar with no problems

    I saw some black spots on my husband and granddaughters hand soap, Olay Body Bar and was trying to wash them off. One particular spot wasnt rubbing off, under running water. I used my fingernail to try to scrape it out. Then my nail hit a hard spot. I dug into the soap on that spot and found a sliver of metal!!! It looks like a needle but its thicker and not as long.
