Sephora Collection Cream Lip Stain 10HR Liquid Lipstick
Waterproof liquid lipstick with no public PFAS disclosure, proceed with caution if PFAS-sensitive.
Sephora Collection's 10-hour cream liquid lipstick contains waterproofing chemistry typical of long-wear cosmetics, but the brand does not publicly disclose PFAS presence or absence. No third-party testing or certification is publicly available. The waterproof polymer matrix raises concern without transparency.

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.
