Herpes vs. M.A.C. The Plaintiff: Starkeema Greenidge
The Defendant: M.A.C.
The Complaint: Greenidge claims she contracted oral herpes at a Rihanna concert in Brooklyn after a M.A.C. representative at a pop-up counter applied a sample tube of RiRi Woo to her lips. "[She] didn't use a fresh or new lipstick tube, but rather one that had been used for other patrons," the lawsuit claimed. Thanks to the infection, Greenidge, a waitress, wasn't able to work for two weeks and experienced "mental anguish and emotional distress" from the cold sore.
M.A.C. hasn't officially commented on the suit, but we're considering it fair game to reference an emotionally distressing cold sore next time we call in sick to work.
