Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Formaldehyde releasers and Glass container breakage on the Puracy and not on the Tom's of Maine.
  • We flag Skin irritation from mineral salts on the Tom's of Maine and not on the Puracy.
  • Both carry a flag for Fragrance allergens, so neither choice avoids it.
  • The Puracy is Glass jar; water-based cream formula where the Tom's of Maine is mineral-based and plant-derived actives; stick formulation, 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 →
