The actress is being sued by Hydroderm, a skincare company who employed Hatcher to promote their product range.

Hydroderm paid the "Desperate Housewives" star $2.4 million to exclusively promote their creams, however, Hatcher has not been faithful.

The company has filed a suit against the 42-year-old, demanding their $2.4 million paycheck back, legal costs and damages.

Court documents filmed by Hydroderm state, "Hatcher's name, image and likeness have been linked to so many competitors' products (at least 17!) that it is anyone's guess as to what product keeps her skin and lips youthful."

One of the many other endorsement deals Hatcher has been employed to do include promoting a lip plumper by City Cosmetics called CityLips, which is in direct competition with Hyroderm's Volumizing Lip Serum.

However, Hatcher's lawyer Alan Wertheimer responded to the law suit saying it is an "unjustified and public assault on Teri Hatcher's good name, reputation and celebrity in a transparent and pathetic effort to distract from its own failure to live up to its end of the agreement."

According to Wertheiner, it isn't Hydroderm who will win from the claims. He said that the star will recover "everything she is owed under her contract, as well as compensatory and punitive damages for Hydroderm's outrageous accusations."
