St. Ives Sued Because Apricot Scrub Is Damaging Faces

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
St. Ives is under fire after two women say the crushed walnut shells in the Apricot scrub can tear your face up and leave you with loads of acnes.⠀⠀⠀

In the lawsuit filed, the women say the exfoliating facial scrub feels like sandpaper when being used on their face. To back up their claim, they say dermatology research proves walnuts shells to the face can cause inflammation leading to breakouts and speeds up the aging process. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Their main issue is, the St. Ives product says it's "dermatologist tested," which is misleading because although it's tested it's not recommended. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They've filed a class action suit against parent company, Unilever, for more than $5 million. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
