## Summary

**Ban on intentionally added perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in cosmetics.** This bill would amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to declare a cosmetic adulterated if it contains intentionally added PFAS, with the standard taking effect January 1, 2027 and repealing Section 3506 of the 2022 Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act to avoid overlapping provisions. - Families and consumers: Cosmetic products could not contain intentionally added PFAS after January 1, 2027. - Manufacturers and suppliers: Would be prohibited from intentionally adding PFAS to any ingredient, raw material, product, or packaging. - FDA and regulators: Adds definitions for “perfluoroalkyl or polyfluoroalkyl substance” and for “intentionally added” to guide enforcement and treats covered cosmetics as adulterated under the FD&C Act.
