Professional heist crew empties warehouse of 42,000 skincare products

A professional heist crew left a family run Liverpool business rocked to its core after emptying a warehouse of around 42,000 skincare products worth in excess of £250,000.

Crystal Clear Skincare, based in Rodney Street in the city centre, has been supplying salons and hairdressers with products for around 26 years. Director Sharon Hillditch said while the business is insured, she is facing around three months of delays before she can fulfill orders, leaving her company at risk of losing hard-won clients.

She told the ECHO: "I'm just angry. We're a Liverpool company, we got through Brexit, we got through the covid pandemic, and some b***ers have come along and taken £250,000 worth of skincare products from our warehouse in Bootle.
