Where these two actually differ
- We flag Fragrance compound allergens and sensitizers, Inhalation exposure to aerosolized propellant and fragrance volatiles and Skin irritation from alcohol and fragrance combination on the Chanel and not on the Primally Pure.
- We flag Skin irritation from magnesium hydroxide alkalinity on the Primally Pure and not on the Chanel.
- The Chanel is Aerosol spray fragrance (alcohol base, fragrance compounds, propellant) where the Primally Pure is mineral-based powder blend (arrowroot, magnesium hydroxide, mica), 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 Primally Pure is the one to buy.
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 →
