Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Wear Foundation

D · Elevated

Insufficient public transparency; no known PFAS risk profile published.

Lancôme does not publicly disclose PFAS ingredients or testing for this foundation. Liquid cosmetics typically carry lower inherent PFAS risk than water-resistant or long-wear treatments, but the brand's silence on supply-chain oversight leaves uncertainty. No independent lab data or third-party verification is publicly available.

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.
