How we picked
We compare products only on what their ingredient lists show — we haven't tested them on skin, and no brand pays to be included. On UK and EU labels, ingredients above 1% must be listed from highest to lowest concentration, so we rank products higher when the key ingredient sits nearer the top — a useful guide, though not an exact measure of strength. Products with no fragrance listed score higher; drying alcohol near the top and essential oils score lower; and we give credit when the brand says a product is made for the skin type in question. Whether a product is available on Amazon never affects its rank.
