It’s not easy viewing and if true could lead to a huge legal mess for the company.
A woman named Lily Cleopatra Maurice from Orlando, Florida came on Facebook and shared photos of her swollen lower lip from a hospital bed.
She claimed that it was a line of lipstick called Covergirl she used and was what was responsible for her lip growing to such a preposterous size.
Here’s her post:
“WARNING!
Please be aware of the queen collection cover girl lipstick. Purchased lip this week woke up choking with huge swollen lips. I had to be rushed to the
ER! Could’ve died in my sleep. Plz be careful with the harmful products in lipsticks.
Share this to save your love ones from a fatal lipstick reaction
CovergirlQueenCollection!”

And in a second post, Ms. Maurice wrote:
“I know everyone is laughing and people can be so cruel even on my way to the ER people can be so hurtful with their stares and whispering.
I am a mother of 4 and my kids could’ve woke up without me over a lipstick…
I am trembling thinking about how lucky i was to have choked enough to awake for who know what could’ve happened to be. I all my family have. No uncles no aunties just me and hubby. Thankful to be alive and spend this day with my family.
All this because of a lipstick. Peace and love everyone”
