Everything you need to make the call - who each one is for, and who should skip it.
Go for it if you...
You want the shortest, most transparent organic ingredient list you can buy in stores
You prefer plant-oil moisture and like a richer feel on the skin
You like a naturally scented lotion and peppermint essential oil appeals to you
You want a clean lotion you can restock on a normal Target or grocery run
You want a fragrance-free daily lotion with the full ingredient list published, not hidden behind a vague label.
An independent certification like EWG VERIFIED matters more to you than a brand's own clean claims.
You need solid everyday hydration from glycerin, plant oils, and shea butter without petroleum or PEGs.
You are comfortable re-ordering online rather than buying in a store.
The main thing to know
The moisturizing system is built from plant oils with no glycerin or hyaluronic acid, so it softens and seals well but does not pull water into the skin the way a complete formula does. If your skin is very dry or cracked, you may want a lotion that adds a humectant.
This is one of the cleanest daily body lotions we have scored: fragrance-free, fully disclosed, and EWG VERIFIED. The one thing to know is that it uses phenoxyethanol as a preservative, which is allowed under EWG VERIFIED within concentration limits but is not what you want if you are after a preservative-free formula.
Skip this if you...
You need a truly fragrance-free lotion because essential oils irritate your skin
Your skin is very dry or compromised and needs a glycerin or hyaluronic acid humectant
You prefer a fast-absorbing, lightweight lotion over a rich oil-based one
You want a completely preservative-free lotion, since this one contains phenoxyethanol.
You need a ceramide barrier formula to repair severely dry or eczema-prone skin.
You only buy lotions you can pick up in person at a drugstore or big-box store.
Neither of these quite what you're looking for?

Not necessarily. The overall score reflects how we weight those three pillars, but your priorities may differ. If you care most about safety, compare the safety scores directly. If budget drives your decision, the prices tell a clearer story. The "right" pick is the one that matches what matters most to your family.
