Cra-Z-Art Gemex and Gel2Gem Jewelry Kits Recalled for Irritation Risk

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

LaRose Industries is recalling approximately 224,100 Cra-Z-Art Gemex and Gel2Gem jewelry-making kits sold nationwide from January 2023 through September 2024. The liquid resin included in these kits contains an acrylate chemical (HEMA) that can cause severe irritation or allergic reactions if touched, inhaled, or swallowed. Consumers should stop using the kits immediately and contact the manufacturer for a full refund.

Risk

The liquid resin in these kits can cause skin, eye, and respiratory irritation or sensitization, and it contains levels of chemicals prohibited in children's products by federal safety standards. While the resin is safe once fully cured into solid jewelry, any liquid or residue remaining on creations poses a significant health hazard to children.

What You Should Do

  1. This recall involves 10 models of Cra-Z-Art Gemex and Gel2Gem jewelry-making kits and one refill pack, including themes like Disney Minnie, Princess, and Frozen.
  2. Identify your product by checking the item number and 12-digit UPC code printed on the bottom of the rectangular product box. See the Affected Products section below for the full list of affected codes.
  3. Immediately stop using any un-cured liquid resin from these kits and contact LaRose Industries toll-free at 877-770-7029 from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT Monday through Friday, or online at www.recallrtr.com/gemgel to receive a full refund. The manufacturer is also contacting known purchasers directly.
  4. Inspect any previously created jewelry to confirm it is fully cured; if there is any liquid or residue present, do not wear the jewelry and store it out of reach of children.
  5. Call the CPSC Hotline at 800-638-2772 if you have additional questions regarding this safety recall.
