A study published today (June 15, 2021) in Environmental Science & Technology Letters surveyed some 231 cosmetics and revealed the presence of high levels of fluorinated compounds in some
products. According to the authors, this indicates the probable presence of PFAS and calls the safety of the products into question.
Additionally, the PFAS were undisclosed in product ingredient lists—exposing a gap in U.S. and Canadian label laws, the authors report. As a result, U.S. senators are introducing the “No PFAS in Cosmetics” Act to ban PFAS from makeup and personal care products.
