Nail Lacquer Orly

D · Elevated

Insufficient public data; typical nail polish risk is low but Orly does not disclose PFAS avoidance.

Orly nail lacquers contain film-forming resins and plasticizers whose PFAS content is not publicly disclosed by the brand. Standard nail polish formulations generally pose lower PFAS concern than waterproofing or non-stick coatings, but Orly provides no transparency.

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.
