Nykaa is one of India’s most trusted beauty and wellness platforms, but even big names can make big mistakes. One of the most serious issues customers face is receiving expired skincare or makeup products. Using expired items is not just a waste of money it can cause serious skin reactions and health risks.
If Nykaa sent you an expired product, don’t ignore it. Here’s how you can take action and file a complaint that actually gets results with help from Choice4Voice.com
🚨 Why Expired Products Are a Serious Problem
Issue | Risk Level | Potential Consequences |
---|---|---|
Expired skincare | High | Skin rashes, acne, burns |
Expired makeup (foundation, etc.) | Medium | Eye infections, breakouts, allergic reaction |
Expired hair products | Low–Medium | Scalp irritation, hair fall |
Expired sunscreen or creams | High | Ineffective protection, sunburn, irritation |
Selling expired or near-expiry products is a clear violation of consumer rights and falls under unfair trade practices as per the Consumer Protection Act of India.
