The wepink cosmetics brand, of the influencer Virginia Fonseca, deals with new criticisms after a relationship of a consumer on a serious adverse reaction caused by one of its products. The episode obtained a repercussion last weekend, when the resident of Nova Iguaçu (RJ), Lidiane Herculano, shared a video on her YouTube channel that she reported that she had suffered from burns for the eyes after using the strengthening of the eyelashes of a company.
According to Lidiane, the discomfort started shortly after application. “I heard a burnt light and went to sleep. When I woke up, I saw everything very cloudy, all very gray,” he said. Even trying to relieve the symptoms with saline and boric water, the situation worsened the next day. During working hours, colleagues noticed the seriousness of the Council and recommended to seek medical assistance.

Subsequently, Lidiane was diagnosed by an ophthalmologist with Burn in the Corneas and had to be addressed to a hospital specialized in Duque de Caxias, Baixada Fluminense. “If I hadn’t washed, he could have been worse,” he said. The victim’s son Otávio Lopes commented on social networks showing indignation with what happened. “My mother cannot open her eyes with so much pain and burning. The doctors gave five to seven days to recovery,” he wrote in an X publication (ex Twitter).
In response, the Virginia Fonseca team said that the consumer was asked to reinsert the product through an inverse or authorized collection in order to allow the analysis of the experts. “However, she refused to return, just as she refused to present the relationship. Therefore, we continue to wait for the product to analyze what happened,” said the consultant. When asked about previous records, the brand’s lawyer said he did not remember other similar cases.
By the way, this is not the first controversy involving Wepink. The brand has already had to face criticisms of failures in make -up products, such as the foundations with the formula contested by influencers, as well as thousands of complaints in complaints here for delays in delivery and faults at the service between 2024 and 2025.
