Plain-English summary

F.A.F. Inc. is recalling Faded Glory Lip Gloss, Locket, and Bracelet Sets sold exclusively at Wal-Mart stores nationwide from May 2008 through June 2008. The recalled three-piece sets contain a rectangle-shaped lip gloss container, a heart-shaped locket necklace, and a charm bracelet. The specific models included in the recall are the Frog Set (Model 6709-4250, UPC 72783357703), Monkey Set (Model 6709-4251, UPC 72783357704), and Cat Set (Model 6709-4252, UPC 72783357705). The "Faded Glory" brand name, model number, and UPC are printed on the product's hangtag.

The recall is due to the lobster claw clasp on the bracelet containing high levels of lead. Lead is toxic if ingested and can cause adverse health effects. No injuries have been reported in connection with this recall.

Consumers should immediately take the bracelet away from children and return the set to any Wal-Mart store for a full refund. For additional information, consumers can contact F.A.F. Inc. at (800) 949-3311 between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's website at www.faf.com.
