Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Fragrance allergens and sensitizers and Photocatalytic activity of titanium dioxide under UV (potential oxidative stress) on the Blue Tansy and not on the Goddess Garden.
  • We flag Fragrance allergens and undisclosed fragrance components and Skin irritation or photosensitivity from plant oils on the Goddess Garden and not on the Blue Tansy.
  • The Blue Tansy is cosmetic lotion with mineral SPF (titanium dioxide/zinc oxide assumed) where the Goddess Garden is mineral-based UV filters, plant-derived waxes, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • The gap is 25 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Goddess Garden is the one to buy.

Both products run through the same public rubric: 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 →
