Charlotte Tilbury has voluntarily recalled selected batches of its Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray globally owing to poor quality, which was discovered during routine testing. This decision, revealed by Puig, the parent company of Charlotte Tilbury, has had major effects on both the firm's identity and financial prospects.
The recall occurred after the standard quality check discovered a single matter in individual portions of the setting spray. While Puig is keen to point out that this is not a safety issue for consumers, the batches in question were recalled for what might be their customers’ dissatisfaction.
Reasons for the recall by Charlotte Tilbury
The recall was due to an isolated quality concern that affected a few batches of the setting spray. This conclusion was derived from standard testing procedures that form part of regular business indicating approval of the brand’s high-quality products.
Even though the company affirmed that the depicted product is harmless for consumers, such actions are considered examples of an appropriate strategy in terms of quality management and consumer protection.
Charlotte Tilbury which is under the management of Puig decided to go for a worldwide recall of affected batches in order to avert possible later complaints or situations like these. This decision can also be attributed to the fact that the brand will be keen on protecting consumers' confidence by reducing any adverse effects it may have on its reputation and consumer loyalty.
Puig’s shares
Nevertheless, even the isolated problem that has been indicated in the given recall speaks volumes of the significance of quality management in the sphere of luxury cosmetics production.
Such occurrences may call for significant costs; the shares of Puig plunged to 9% lower after the announcement of this recall which raised concerns among investors about possible effects on sales, as reported by Reuters. However, Puig has said that while this withdrawal will hit its makeup segment, it is not likely to be a great concern to the company this year.
