What to do now
The problem with Beeline 3 Pack Stud Earrings is chemical: it contains something that should not be there at that level.
- Take it away from children now and stop using it.
- Wash your hands after handling it.
- Contact the business or the shop you bought it from to arrange the remedy set out in the notice.
- If someone has been hurt or the product has failed, report it to Trading Standards through the Citizens Advice consumer service.
Why it matters. Limits on substances such as lead, cadmium, phthalates and formaldehyde exist because of their effects on health over time. Children are more exposed because they chew and handle products.

Look out for
- skin redness, itching or a rash where it touched
Get help urgently
- if a child has chewed or swallowed part of it and is unwell, contact NHS 111 or your GP
This is general information based on NHS public guidance, not medical advice. In an emergency call 999. For urgent advice use NHS 111 (NHS 24 on 111 in Scotland) or, in Northern Ireland, your GP or out-of-hours service.
