PossibleSkin sensitization or irritation from essential oils or botanical extracts
Where these two actually differ
- We flag Heavy metals in colorants (iron oxides, mica, synthetic pigments) and Skin sensitization or irritation from essential oils or botanical extracts on the NARS and not on the Becca Cosmetics.
- Both carry a flag for Fragrance allergens and undisclosed components, so neither choice avoids it.
- The Becca Cosmetics is Glycerin, silicones, pigments, film-formers (typical liquid cosmetic gloss) where the NARS is Oil-based lip formulation (likely plant/ester oils, wax, pigments), which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.
Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
