Victoria's Secret Bras
Did you purchase bras from Victoria's Secret Stores in the hopes of achieving a sexier, more alluring look? Have you been horrified to discover that instead of leaving you looking and feeling more attractive, your Victoria's Secret bra caused a serious - and even disfiguring - skin rash or scar? If so, you are not alone.
Like you, thousands of women have suffered serious and painful rashes, hives and even permanent scarring caused by Victoria's Secret bras. Victoria's Secret Stores has even admitted to receiving thousands of reports from customers who said the bras they purchased caused rashes and other skin problems.
Formaldehyde in Victoria's Secret Bras
Tests have revealed that some Victoria's Secret bras may contain the chemical formaldehyde. Formaldehyde is used in the textile industry to make fabrics crease-resistant. If you have suffered a skin rash or other problem from a Victoria's Secret bra, it is likely that you may have an allergic reaction to formaldehyde.
You may be a victim of this allergic reaction if you experienced any of the following symptoms in places where your skin made contact with your Victoria's Secret bra:
- Eczema type lesions at the site of intimate contact with clothing.
- In the preliminary stages, this allergy can appear as itchy, red, fluid filled pimples, which gradually become chronic and lichen like if not diagnosed and treated quickly.
- Presence of red, macerated skin on the waistband area. This rash can become secondarily infected with bacterial organisms in hot, humid environments.
- Itching at the site of contact.
- In some extreme cases, people allergic to formaldehyde in clothing may experience itching and tearing eyes and, shortness of breath.
