Pass a law stating cosmetic products mustn’t have sharp corners & must be round

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

Injuries are repeatedly sustained from the pointed corners of cosmetics bottles, these corners are resulting in cuts and abrasions for many and could be fatal to infants. I want to put a stop to this!! Making the corners of cosmetic products rounded would stop this and make them generally safer.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what products you'd like this to apply to.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
