Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Fragrance allergens and undisclosed components and Skin irritation from sodium lauryl sulfate on the Irish Spring and not on the Olay.
  • We flag Fragrance allergens and Microbial growth if contaminated during use on the Olay and not on the Irish Spring.
  • The Irish Spring is aqueous surfactant solution, no known PFAS-targeted additives where the Olay is water, glycerin, surfactants, botanical extracts, 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: 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 →
