---------------------------------------

CONSUMER LAW GROUP has launched a Canada-wide class action lawsuit against Beiersdorf on behalf of individuals who have purchased the product Nivea Good-bye Cellulite Gel and Patch (together “Good-bye Cellulite”).

The class action involves the deceptive, misleading, false, and unfair advertising of Nivea Good-bye Cellulite as a product that is capable of toning and smoothing the skin and visibly reduce the signs of cellulite on the skin. In truth and in fact, there is no evidence to support these claims.

As a result, consumers were induced into purchasing Good-bye Cellulite under the premise that it would visibly reduce the appearance of cellulite, a false and misleading representation, thereby vitiating their consent and entitling them to claim a refund for the purchase price of the product.
