PHOENIX — When you pay for something, you expect to get what's advertised! But the Let ABC15 Know team is tracking three class action lawsuits involving popular beauty and exercise products that claim otherwise.
A promise of effectively smoothing wrinkles and clearing acne, but a class action lawsuit alleges that Proctor & Gamble falsely advertised that their Olay cleansers contained retinal. The lawsuit maintains that when consumers rinse off a cleanser, the retinol would rinse off as well - minimizing its impact. According to the lawsuit, consumers would not have paid as much if they had known the truth. The lawsuit also claims the Olay retinol in the cleansers was not shipped nor stored properly, which would have impacted it as well.
The lawsuit claimed the following Olay retinol cleansers are falsely advertised:
Olay Cleaning & Renewing Body Wash with Retinol
Olay Nighttime Rinse-off Body Conditioner with Retinol
Olay Smoothing Daily Facial Cleanser Retinol 24 + Peptide
Olay Renewing Exfoliating Cleanser with Retinol
Olay Cleansing Melts + Retinol
Another class action lawsuit has reached a settlement: Saks Off 5th has agreed to pay $1.5 million after claims it advertised false discounts on products to trick customers into making purchases. Consumers who shopped at a location in California or anyone who shopped online between January 1, 2011, and November 1, 2024, and who has not received a refund or credit for their purchases could benefit.
Consumers have until March 16 to submit a claim.
Saks Off 5th has not admitted any wrongdoing.
