Statement from SOSU Cosmetics

We understand that many of you have questions following recent media reports about our Peach Dreams Eyeshadow Palette. We want to take a moment to clarify the facts and reassure our community. 

Earlier this year, SOSU Cosmetics withdrew the Peach Dreams Palette from sale following a review with the Health Products Regulatory Authority (HPRA).

This palette, which dates back to 2022 and is no longer in production, was found to contain elevated levels of arsenic. As the health and wellbeing of our customers is our number one priority, and out of an abundance of caution, SOSU accepted and implemented a withdrawal of this individual product based on HPRA’s conclusions. It is important to note that the product was withdrawn and not recalled as has been inaccurately referenced and reported.

We’ve since engaged independent third-party experts who have confirmed that while trace levels of heavy metals, including arsenic, can be present in cosmetics, the levels identified in this product do not present a safety concern. Trace elements like these are permitted under strict EU cosmetic regulations. We are engaging with the HPRA on this. 

We would like to reassure you that there is no safety issue relating to any of our existing products across our SOSU, Dripping Gold and Bahama Official brands.

We want to thank our incredible community for your continued trust and support. Your support and confidence mean everything to us.
