A range of products have been urgently recalled over safety concerns this week.

Some items are for children, with regulators warning of a choking risk and as well as damage to health.

A make-up product sold by Missguided has also been found to not meet legal quality standards.

The report with the latest recalls was published on Friday by the Office for Product and Safety Standards, one of the market surveillance authorities in the UK.
