Council note
If you are pregnant, Octinoxate is the reason we would skip this bottle. The disc already knows. You should not have to hunt for it.

Why this number
The toughest extra is worth watching — it caps this bottle at Poor.
Poor · 49/100
- Formula80/100
The toughest extra on the list is the limit. A calm rest of the formula cannot lift that.
What pulled it down
The toughest extra sets the ceiling
The lowest-rated ingredient caps this bottle at 49. A pretty list cannot outrun one high-concern extra.
Octinoxate
-10Chemical UV filter with endocrine activity signals.
Octinoxate · hormone signal
-4Flagged for endocrine activity in the literature we track. It never inflates the score — it only pulls it down.
For creams and washes, every flagged extra knocks the formula. The lowest-rated ingredient is the limit.
Better neighbours
Same aisle, cleaner number. Ranked by how close the job is — not by who paid.

Zinc oxide
No concernA keep. White cast is the trade. Worth it.
Hyaluronic acid
No concernA keep. It is not magic; it is a well-mannered moisturiser.
Niacinamide
No concernA keep at modest percentages. Too much can flush some faces.
