Revlon ColorStay Makeup for Normal/Dry Skin
Skip until Revlon discloses waterproof formula ingredients or third-party tests the product.
ColorStay is a long-wear waterproof makeup, a category where PFAS use has been documented in competitors. Revlon makes no public PFAS disclosures and provides no third-party testing or PFAS-free certification. Without ingredient transparency or independent lab data, the waterproof coating's chemical composition remains unclear.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 35% 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.
