Procter & Gamble is conducting a voluntary recall of 10 shades of Clairol Natural Instincts in the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico. The company said it's taking the step due to a mismatched ColorFresh!™ Revitalizer sachet in the kits that may create an unwanted colour result. The primary hair colourant is not affected and all of the products contained in the kit remain safe to use.

The following shades are affected:
Natural Instincts Shade 16 Light Auburn (Spiced Tea)
Natural Instincts Shade 35 Brown Black (Ebony Mocha)
Natural Instincts Crème Shade 03G Light Golden Blonde (Honey Crème)
Natural Instincts Crème Shade 7.5 Dark Blonde (Maple Crème)
Natural Instincts Crème Shade 21G Medium Golden Brown (Caramel Crème)
Natural Instincts Crème Shade 23R Medium Auburn (Raspberry Crème)
Natural Instincts Crème Shade 30R Dark Auburn (Cherry Crème)
Natural Instincts Crème Shade 31 Darkest Brown (Coffee Crème)
Natural Instincts Vibrant Shade 9 Light Blonde (Blonde Vibrance)
Natural Instincts Vibrant Shade 10 Extra Light Blonde (Sun-Kissed Blonde)

P&G is removing the products in question from store shelves and consumers with one of the impacted sachets can still use everything else in the kit, but should discard the ColorFresh.

People who have purchased the affected shades should call Clairol for a replacement coupon or refund at 866-493-0512 (M-F, 9 am - 6 pm ET)
