"Clean" and "natural" have no legal meaning. Paste the INCI list and see what's actually in it. The hidden fragrance allergens, the drying alcohols and sulfates, and the ingredients worth a second look.

How to read this report

Wrong claims vs the source

Claims made for this brand that could not be confirmed in a certifier's own register. A brand website is a claim, not a source.

'Vegan; cruelty-free' were listed as certifications, these are self-declared brand claims, not independent third-party certifications. Not necessarily false, but should not be presented as certifications.

Sources checked:
sephora.com/brand/brown-girl-jane (Clean at Sephora); browngirljane.com/pages/about-us and /pages/brown-girl-jane-clean (brand claims via search snippet; page returned 429 on direct fetch); scentbird.com/brand/brown-girl-jane

Not yet independently verified. The certifications listed for this brand are as the brand states them. They have not yet been checked against the certifiers own registers, so they should be read as a claim rather than a confirmed fact.
