Reported risk: The recalled sunglasses have a pink tint to the eyeglasses, have floating glitter in the temple of the sunglasses, say "Barbie™" and "Mattel®" on the left side of the earpiece, and say "China" on the right side. Hazards: The frames of the sunglasses can break, allowing the petroleum distillate and floating glitter to leak out. Petroleum distillates could be harmful to children's eyes and skin and could be fatal if ingested.
