PFAS score
Oribe · Hair Spray
Oribe Maximista Thickening Spray
No public PFAS disclosure; hair sprays historically use fluorinated propellants, request ingredient list before purchase.
Oribe does not publicly disclose PFAS presence or absence in Maximista Thickening Spray. Aerosol cosmetics sometimes rely on fluorinated propellants (HFC-152a) or silicone polymers; without a detailed ingredient statement or brand commitment, PFAS risk cannot be ruled out.

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.
