This comes as Next recalls a household item that could cause “serious damage”, as it poses a choking risk.
Customers who have the Drop Dead Gorgeous Pumpkin Spice Light Up Diffuser should stop using it immediately.
The OPSS explained that the product presents a risk of injuries as it has been identified that the batteries can be removed too easily.
Britons have also been warned that a cosmetic product poses a “serious chemical risk” due to a “prohibited” ingredient.
