History of Olaplex Lawsuits
Olaplex's legal trouble began in early 2022, just a few months after their IPO. The European Union banned a chemical called lilial (butylphenyl methylpropional) for cosmetic use, stating that it was potentially toxic for reproduction. At the time of the ban, Olaplex was using lilial in its best-selling product. It removed the ingredient, stating that it was not an active ingredient and, thus, the formulation was not affected by its removal.
There was some unrest on social media in the wake of the lilial removal. However, things settled down for almost a year—until February 2023. In that month a lawsuit was filed by nearly 30 women. The lawsuit alleges that Olaplex caused hair loss, breakage, bald spots, and other injuries to their hair and scalp.
One of the allegations was that Olaplex had not recalled any product containing lilial after the reformulation, instead allowing stock on shelves to be sold prior to restocking with the new formulation.
The use of Vitamin B5 (panthenol) was also mentioned. This ingredient can sometimes cause an allergic reaction and contact dermatitis. In addition, plaintiffs pointed out that the products contain sodium benzoate and ascorbic acid. When mixed together, these chemicals can create benzene, a known carcinogen.
1. I see Amazon on the "Authorized Reseller" list from the Olaplex site itself (image attached).
2. I see an Amazon store for Olaplex that directs you to the discounted products in this Slickdeals post: Link Here [amazon.com]
3. The products have over 60,000 reviews of 4.6 out of 5.0 stars. (Fake Spot shows high confidence in reviews: Here [fakespot.com])
