An urgent recall has been issued for an ultra-popular face cream which was distributed by accident and could cause 'severe health consequences'.

But thr FDA says that close to 3,000 'unfit' pots of the Coconut Vanilla scented edition have been accidentally distributed and consumers have been warned to check which batches they have. 

The affected 14oz jars have lot numbers 24D44 and 24D45, with expiration dates between 4/10/2026 and 4/11/2026.

I'm really interested in knowing what's in it that would warrant such a dire warning.

The possible health consequences certainly should and usually are mentioned.  New secrecy on such recalls to protect a corporation?

The FDA recall notice does not specify how First Aid Beauty's Ultra Repair Cream could cause harm.
 

It merely states that the product was 'intended for quarantine'.

In line with 'good manufacturing practices' for drug products, all items should be 'stored under quarantine until they have been tested or examined, whichever is appropriate, and released'.

However, 2756 jars of the Coconut Vanilla First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream slipped through the net and accidentally went to market.

I just looked on their website. The Ultimate Repair Cream recall only refered to what was sold directly from their website. They stated they directly contacted those customers and have sent a replacement.

@Sooner.  Except for the people whom they can't contact.

I suspect they've used the address of where the original order was sent. 

Is there something more they should do?

So, they cannot explain any possible risks since they have not tested it. Can’t they test the returns or remaining inventory of that lot number? Hmmmm.
