FENTY BEAUTY CHEEKS SUEDE WATERPROOF POWDER BLUSH (lolly poppy)

F · High PFAS

Skip until Fenty Beauty discloses waterproofing chemistry, cosmetic PFAS isn't routine tested.

Fenty Beauty's Cheeks Suede Waterproof Powder Blush uses waterproofing technology but makes no public disclosure of the chemical binders or film-formers used. Waterproof cosmetics sometimes employ PFAS, though many alternatives exist.

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.
