Dear Customers and Friends,
I have recently pulled several eye shadows from the Gothcupcake shop. I have recently discovered that one of my suppliers made an error in their ingredients disclosure. While the ingredients were vegan, these removed colors contain ingredients that are safe for use in blushes, lipsticks and nail polishes, but have not been FDA approved for use on the eyes. At the time of purchase I was assured that these ingredients were approved for ALL makeup types including use around the eyes. I was both dismayed and upset by the news that these ingredients are not in fact approved for use near the eyes. The supplier and I have reached an agreement and they are currently upgrading their website to avoid such cases in the future.
The following colors have been pulled from the shop: Nuclear Napalm, Brains, O-Positive, Pumpkin Guts, Hellfire, Cadaver Cabaret, Chibi, and Bruise.
I have already begun research on all-natural ingredients to reformulate the aforementioned colors. Though I am a very small business, I will gladly replace any of the colors above with a free eye shadow of your choice or a refund for the full eye shadow value ($6 USD/each). There is no need to return the above colors to me for replacement, you may dispose of those colors or, if you wish, use those colors to mix with lip balm or nail polish, as the color is safe for use in those items. For replacement or refund please e-mail gothcupcake@gmail.com or send me a conversation on Etsy at www.gothcupcake.etsy.com.
I started making my own makeup so I would no longer have to question what I was putting on my eyes or worry about it being safe or vegan. I wanted the same for others and that is what inspired me to start Zombify. I strive to run my business with honesty and integrity and I apologize for this mistake.
Sincerely,
Mary C.
