Useful this morning: If there is a bathroom shelf or travel washbag you have not checked in a while, GOV.UK's Office for Product Safety and Standards has a recent recall for Simple 730ml Kind to Skin Micellar Cleansing Water because affected batches may be microbiologically contaminated and could cause eye inflammation. Quick move: check the product name and batch details before using it, especially if it has been sitting in a shared household.
