How scores are calculated
Materials (40%): How plastic-free the product is — raw materials, construction, and coatings.
Packaging (20%): Is the product packaged in plastic? Is it recyclable?
Transparency (20%): Does the brand disclose ingredients, sourcing, and manufacturing?
Durability (20%): How long does it last? Longer-lasting products reduce plastic waste over time.
This is a rating of this specific product only — not the company. Other products from this brand may score differently.

The average American uses 9 personal care products per day, containing 126 unique chemical ingredients. Many of these chemicals — parabens, phthalates, formaldehyde-releasing preservatives, synthetic fragrances — are endocrine disruptors that absorb through the skin. The FDA does not require safety testing of cosmetic ingredients before they go to market.
Why We Rated It This Way
Aveeno's 'natural' branding is misleading — it contains synthetic fragrances, dimethicone (silicone), and benzyl alcohol. Natural moisturizers without synthetic fragrances and silicones are available.
