Understanding Scores
Cosmetics and personal care products are not required to be tested for safety before being allowed on the market. The Skin Deep® scoring system was designed to help the public understand whether a product is safe to use or whether it contains ingredients of concern.
Every product and ingredient in Skin Deep gets a two-part score – one for hazard and one for data availability. The safest products score well by both measures, with a low hazard rating and a fair or better data availability rating.
HAZARD SCORE
The Skin Deep ingredient hazard score, from 1 to 10, reflects known and suspected hazards linked to the ingredients. The EWG VERIFIED® mark means a product meets EWG's strictest criteria for transparency and health.
WEIGHT-OF-EVIDENCE APPROACH
A product's hazard score is not an average of the ingredients' hazard scores. It is calculated using a weight-of-evidence approach that factors in all of the hazards or health impacts associated with the ingredients.
EWG Verification Process
An EWG VERIFIED® mark on a product indicates that the company's ingredient disclosures show the product has met our full criteria to ensure it adheres to our standards for health.
A PRODUCT CAN BECOME EWG VERIFIED IF IT:
Meets EWG's criteria for overall product hazard score.
Does not contain any ingredients on EWG's "Unacceptable" list.
Discloses all ingredients, including those in fragrance.
