L’Oreal Waterproof Mascaras Contain PFAS Complaint

May 13, 2022

Cosmetics are applied directly to the skin, usually to the face, and even around the eyes and mouth, and consumers must trust cosmetics companies to make sure their products are safe. The complaint for this class action brings suit against L’Oreal USA, Inc., alleging that its waterproof mascaras are in fact not safe and contain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), a line of synthetic materials that may have toxic effects.
