Compared to any given episode of "The Real Housewives," beauty products seem relatively drama-free. So when lawsuits arise, hair extensions and foundation are probably the last things that come to mind. But you'd be surprised to find seemingly harmless things like lipstick and shampoo can land beauty brands and celebrities smack dab in the middle of high-profile litigation. Click ahead to see how these beauty treatments and hair products landed someone in hot water.

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.

The Plaintiff: Frownies
The Defendant: Kris Jenner

The Complaint: Frownies, the maker of Beautiful Eyes Bag, a wrinkle treatment for deep lines around the eyes, wasn't too happy with Kris Jenner's highly publicized facelift before Kim's second wedding. They claim it destroyed the momager's ability to endorse a line of natural, non-surgical skin care products, but she insisted the facelift only affected her neck, not her face.

Jenner is counter suing the company for her advance, compensatory damages and legal fees. But with the exclusive photos from Kim's latest wedding just waiting to be sold for public viewing, something tells us that regardless of the outcome, Jenner will have the last, wrinkle-free laugh.

The Plaintiff: Rorie Weisberg
The Defendant: L'Oréal and Lancôme

The Complaint: Weisberg, an Orthodox Jewish woman from New York, purchased a 1 oz. bottle of Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra 24H Foundation, $45, to wear to her son's bar mitzvah. Since Jewish law forbids women from applying makeup from sundown on Friday until Saturday night, Weisberg hoped the 24-hour foundation would help her comply with her religious practices and keep her looking flawless for the big event. Weisberg tested the foundation, wearing it for a full 24 hours (AKA sleeping in it), and found that it left her skin cakey and had almost completely come off by 3pm the following day.

She's currently suing Lancôme and its parent company L'Oréal for "deceptive acts and practices," and seeking "unspecified damages," and "a corrective advertising campaign." No word on if she's found another option for the bar mitzvah.

The Plaintiff: Jennifer Fahey
The Defendant: Wal-Mart and Vi-Jon

The Complaint: Fahey, a Portland woman who has had hair reaching the small of her back since childhood, is suing Wal-Mart and personal care brand Vi-Jon to the tune of $10,000. Fahey claims that within seconds of using the Equate Everyday Clean Dandruff Shampoo, $3.44, she picked up at Wal-Mart, her hair became so tangled, she had to cut out a few feet of hair, leaving her with a measly four inches of hair and "past, present and future physical and emotional pain and suffering, anxiety, humiliation and embarrassment, expenses for replacement hair, along with diminished and lost wages."

The lawsuit is still pending, but we hope Fahey can embrace her extremely on-trend pixie cut in the meantime.
