A nine-year-old girl has been left with an iPhone-shaped scar for life after toxic pink glitter from her phone case burned her skin.
Olivia Retter was in bed when her phone case leaked onto her leg - leaving her with an angry chemical burn in the exact shape of her iPhone 5c.
The youngster, from Ware, Hertfordshire, bought the £5.99 phone case - decorated with unicorns and rainbows - from a New Look store in Cambridge.
Now her shocked mum Karly Retter's post warning other parents to be aware of the danger posed by similar phone cases has gone viral, racking up nearly 13,000 Facebook shares.
