- Gwyneth Paltrow's lifestyle company, Goop, was selling $66 vaginal eggs they said balanced hormones, and made it easier to wait for the restroom.
- Ten prosecutors across California together brought a lawsuit against Goop on Friday, and won a $145,000 civil penalty on Tuesday.
- Goop has to refund people who bought the Jade or Rose Quartz Egg, or an essential oil which claimed to cure depression.
- In future it also has to get scientific proof for products before claiming their health benefits.
- You can still buy the eggs on Goop's website.
