Crack the Crown, a collaboration of anti-MLM YouTubers, commissioned a lab to test Paparazzi jewelry for toxic metals.

The report details dangerous levels of arsenic, cadmium and lead across a range of Paparazzi pieces.

Crack the Crown commissioned Waypoint Analytical to test Paparazzi jewelry samples last month.

On its website, Waypoint Analytical claims it’s

arguably the largest agricultural laboratory group and among the top 50 environmental lab groups in the United States.

Crack the Crown submitted ten Paparazzi jewelry samples for testing.

The following is a list, including where specifically on the jewelry metal was tested:

Colorfully Cosmic Multi Bracelet (right) – metal around fake beads

Lookin’ Like a Million Blue Necklace – metal from around where the blue pendant is set in

You Know HUE Green Earring – metal part where the green bead is centered on

A Silver Spell Silver Blockbuster Necklace – oval rings

Money On My Mind White Ring – metal part that would sit on top of finger

Number One Knockout Pink Bracelet – silver part that the tiny white beads are set in

Camera Chic Black Bracelet – silver part that the tiny white beads are set in

Treasury Fund White Ring – metal part that would sit on top of finger

Sugar-coated Sparks Pink Bracelet – metal settings the pink beads are set in

Bow Before the Queen White Necklace – chunky metal pieces between curved bars

Here are the more concerning results:

Colorfully Cosmic Multi Bracelet contained 67.2 mg/kg of arsenic and 132 mg/kg of nickel

You Know HUE Green Earring contained 16.9 mg/kg of cadmium

A Silver Spell Blockbuster Necklace contained 62 mg/kg of arsenic, 113 mg/kg of lead and 70.2 mg/kg of nickel

Camera Chic Black Bracelet contained
1130 mg/kg of lead
and 1900 mg/kg of nickel

Treasury Fund White Ring contained 
819,000 mg/kg of cadmium
 
and 95.3 mg/kg of lead

Sugar-coated Sparks Pink Bracelet contained 18.7 mg/kg of cadmium and 41.4 mg/kg of lead

Up until December 2021, Paparazzi included the claim “lead and nickel free” in their advertising.

And this was of course dutifully parroted by Paparazzi distributors (click to enlarge):

As of late December or early January, Paparazzi has removed “lead and nickel free” claims from its website and marketing.

Instead, the company
now claims its jewelry

is required to undergo testing for compliance with California’s Proposition 65, which includes testing for all heavy metals including lead, nickel, cadmium as well as phthalates.

California’s Proposition 65 is one of the most stringent consumer laws in the US, and Paparazzi’s jewelry complies with Proposition 65.
