A prominent Australian beauty and makeup company has urgently recalled one of its products over fears it could cause “serious injury”.
MCoBeauty has issued a recall for all of its Lip Lights Lip Gloss products, warning they do not meet the mandatory safety and information standards for products containing button and coin batteries.
The products contain an LED light in the lid, as well as a built-in mirror.

“There is a risk of choking or serious injury if young children gain access to the button or coin batteries and swallow or place them inside their body,” the recall said.
The affected batches are A23A07, A23A08 and A23A10, and items were sold at Woolworths, Big W, Chemist Warehouse and OZ Hair and Beauty between October 1, 2023, and April 17, 2024.
Batch numbers can be found on the bottom of purchased products, available in clear, morocco, striptease, berry pink and marshmallow shades.
Customers who purchased products with the A23A07 batch number are told to “stop using immediately”, as button batteries were “not adequately secured” and are accessible to young children.
The lip gloss should be kept away from children and customers should get in contact with staff at MCoBeauty to arrange a replacement product to be sent out.
Those who purchased products with the A23A08 and A23A10 batch numbers can download new warning labels for the products from the MCoBeauty website.
MCoBeauty is Australia’s “leading luxe for less, cruelty-free brand creating on trend beauty essentials” according to its website.
