How to choose the best EWG Verified beauty & personal care

  1. Confirm the EWG Verified mark. Look for the official EWG Verified logo on the packaging or product page — self-declared claims without the mark are not audited.
  2. Stack complementary certifications. Check whether the product also carries Vegan, Leaping Bunny, USDA Organic, Fair Trade or B Corp — each certifies a different dimension of ethics.
  3. Read the ethics score breakdown. Our 0–100 ethics score weights certifications, sourcing transparency, ingredient and material safety, packaging and brand practices. Prefer products scoring 75+.
  4. Match to your priorities. Filter by price tier and use case (sensitive skin, travel, zero-waste) to narrow to the pick that fits your life.

Frequently asked about EWG Verified beauty & personal care
