Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Fragrance allergens, Formaldehyde releasers and Glass container breakage on the Puracy and not on the Tarte.
  • We flag Fragrance allergens and undisclosed fragrance chemicals and Skin irritation or sensitization from botanical extracts on the Tarte and not on the Puracy.
  • The Puracy is Glass jar; water-based cream formula where the Tarte is Vegan powder/talc-free base with proprietary blend (stick deodorant), 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 Puracy 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 →
