First Aid Beauty has voluntarily issued a nationwide recall for its popular face moisturizer, with the recall receiving a Class II risk classification from the FDA. 

Beauty product recalls are not as frequent as those for prescription drugs or food, but they can still present health or safety risks to consumers. 

On December 23, the company recalled 2,756 jars of Ultra Repair Cream due to a violation of Current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations. 

According to the FDA, the recall was triggered by the accidental distribution of a product intended for quarantine. 

The FDA defines a recall as the removal or correction of a product that violates their regulations and would lead to legal action if not addressed. 

The agency classified the recall as a Class II risk, indicating potential temporary or medically reversible health consequences, but low chances of serious harm. 

First Aid Beauty’s products are widely popular, especially on social media, with the affected items being distributed nationwide. 

The recalled products have lot numbers 24D44 and 24D45, and expiration dates of April 10 and 11, 2026. 

Other recent product recalls include issues with red dot sights on firearms and several food products, such as contaminated barbecue sauce and yogurt. 

The FDA advises cosmetic companies to implement corrective actions to prevent future violations, such as understanding why the violation occurred and ensuring it doesn’t happen again. 

Consumers with the affected products are urged to check the batch codes and visit the FDA website for more details or contact the distributor directly.
