Two lawsuits have been filed against Ulta Beauty, alleging the retailer cleans up and resells used makeup products as new.
The most recent lawsuit was filed this week by Ulta customer Meghan Devries in Illinois, where the company is based. The suit claims the company “has a routine practice of repackaging and resealing beauty products that have been previously purchased, used, and returned… before returning those used products to its shelves to be purchased by other consumers.” Less than a month ago, a Los Angeles woman filed a similar lawsuit, reports the Los Angeles Times. Both suits were inspired by a confessional from someone who claims to be a former Ulta employee on Twitter.
