A California company has recalled all of its tattoo inks and needles due to a bacterial contamination, according to a new report.

White & Blue Lion announced the details of the recall, stating that use of its current products could lead to bacterial infections. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration also noted that an infection could also cause a dangerous condition called sepsis.
