F.A.F. Recalls Wal-Mart Lip Gloss and Jewelry Sets

The lobster claw clasp on the bracelet contains high levels of lead

F.A.F. has recalled about 30,000 lip gloss and jewelry sets sold exclusively at Wal-Mart. The lobster claw clasp on the bracelet contains high levels of lead, which is toxic and can cause adverse health effects if ingested.

The recalled three-piece sets contain a rectangle-shaped lip gloss container, a heart-shaped locket necklace, and a charm bracelet. The following models are included in the recall:

Item | Model Number | UPC

Frog Set | 6709-4250 | 72783357703

Monkey Set | 6709-4251 | 72783357704

Cat Set | 6709-4252 | 72783357705

"Faded Glory", the model number, and UPC are printed on the product's hangtag.

These sets were manufactured in China and sold at Wal-Mart stores nationwide from May 2008 through June 2008 for about $6.

Consumers should immediately take the bracelet away from children and return the set to any Wal-Mart store for a full refund. For additional information, contact F.A.F. Inc. at (800) 949-3311 between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's Web site at www.faf.com
