NYX Professional Makeup Jelly Job Lip Gloss
Jelly lip gloss has low inherent PFAS risk; NYX discloses nothing, skip only if PFAS transparency matters to you.
NYX's Jelly Job Lip Gloss is a silicone-based cosmetic with no published PFAS claims or third-party verification. Lip glosses rarely require water-resistance or non-stick coatings that drive PFAS use, lowering structural risk.

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.
