Why it's dangerous

Chemical

The product has an excessive concentration of nickel and lead (measured values up to 244.87 µg/cm²/week and 4%, respectively). Nickel is a strong sensitiser and causes allergic reactions if present in articles that come into direct and prolonged contact with the skin. Lead is harmful to human health, accumulates in the body, can cause developmental neurotoxicity and may also affect breast-fed or unborn children.
