RMS Beauty SuperNatural Radiance Serum Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Sunscreen
Skip until RMS Beauty discloses waterproofing chemistry; SPF actives are safer, but broad-spectrum waterproof cosmetics often contain PFAS.
RMS Beauty's SuperNatural Radiance SPF 30 uses mineral sunscreen (lower concern for PFAS risk vs. chemical filters), but the product is labeled waterproof. Waterproofing in cosmetics frequently requires fluorinated polymers or fluorotelomer coatings to repel water.

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.
