Everything you need to make the call - who each one is for, and who should skip it.
Go for it if you...
You want a clean everyday lotion that clears parabens, phenoxyethanol, PEG emulsifiers, and petrolatum
You like that an outside audit, EWG Verified, confirms the full ingredient list
You do not mind a light, naturally derived lavender scent on your skin
You want a clean lotion you can pick up at mainstream stores and reorder easily
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
This is a genuinely clean, independently certified lotion, and the one thing to know before you buy is that it is lightly scented with named lavender essential oils rather than unscented, so a fragrance-sensitive household may prefer an unscented option.
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 have reactive or fragrance-sensitive skin and need a completely unscented formula
Your child has diagnosed eczema and needs a ceramide barrier-repair formula
You prefer a lotion with no botanical scent compounds at all on the label
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.
