Legal Woes For LiLo

Lindsay Lohan is being sued over stealing the formula for fake bake spray Sevin Nyne.

Lindsay Lohan is being sued over stealing the formula for fake bake spray Sevin Nyne.

Lindsay Lohan and her business partners have been accused of stealing the formula for Sevin Nyne Tanning Mist. In a complaint filed in federal court in Tampa, Fla., inventor Jennifer Sunday said she pitched the idea to Lohan and the partners this year, the parties entered into a confidentiality agreement and were on the verge of a deal but could not agree on final terms. Sunday alleged that the final product contains “exactly the same or nearly identical ingredients” as her creation and that Lohan has publicly taken credit for the formula. A representative for Sevin Nyne said the company had no comment. Lohan launched the product this spring at Sephora with the help of her personal tanning guru, Lorit Simon, and other partners in Lorit LLC, the spray’s parent company. Sunday, who operates as White Wave International Labs Inc., is suing for breach of contract, theft of trade secrets and conspiracy, among other counts. She is seeking an injunction and unspecified damages.
