You can also dive deeper into the ratings by seeing each ingredient’s grade and the scary concerns that may come from each chemical, such as developmental or reproductive toxicity or endocrine disruption. But if a product contains toxic ingredients, often potentially carcinogenic or cancer-causing, you’ll see a very stern, red “10” telling you to stay away. If a product scores a green “1,” it’s considered non-toxic and most consumers race to the store to snatch it up.
The EWG score is on a scale from 1 to 10, with 0 reserved for the most coveted award: EWG Verified. How does the EWG Skin Deep database work? Unfortunately, there are flaws with the EWG Skin Deep database that you should consider before buying into the EWG rating system. And some brands now even reference their low scores on EWG as a badge of honor for product safety. Enter the EWG Skin Deep Database.ĮWG Skin Deep is a searchable list of personal care products with EWG’s internal product rating based on whether it has toxic ingredients. More and more companies are promoting clean beauty and advertising all-natural and chemical-free ingredients. You’ve probably heard of the EWG’s Dirty Dozen (a list of the “dirtiest” or pesticide-covered fruits and vegetables) and the EWG’s annual sunscreen report. And would be extra helpful if also included information on where can purchase from and also how the product smells!!! I’d like a nice clean natural product that is good for my hair but at the same time I’d like to be able to weigh the pros and cons and may rather buy a product that is rated a 2 or 3 if it makes my hair softer and has a really nice smell.EWG or the Environmental Working Group is a private, non-profit organization funded by private foundations, individuals and companies.
Would also be nice if included helpful reviews and had options to sort by ewg rating, price, top reviews…). I can’t go in and filter my search with options such as price, hair type (thin, oily, wavy…), hair goal (volume, shine, frizz control, etc.), or even by the ewg rating. It simply gives me a giant list of shampoos which seems to start for best (being EWG rated). For example under “browse” I can go to “hair” and then pick from “baby shampoo”, “shampoo”, or “conditioner”. You can search for a particular brand but if unsure what you want and want to browse it’s hard to narrow down options. Needs better browsing filters and sorting options
