Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation + Concealer - CN 02 Breeze
No public PFAS risk flags, but lack of transparency and no third-party testing leave uncertainty.
This is a conventional liquid foundation-concealer hybrid with no known fluorinated polymers or water-repellent treatments. Clinique has not disclosed PFAS presence or absence, and no independent lab data is publicly available.

Why this grade
Category baseline
cosmetics is a category where PFAS exposure is more common.
No PFAS disclosure
No public statement about PFAS in this product.
What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 45% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
