CeraVe Baby Moisturizing Lotion vs Hempz Sensitive Skin Moisturizing Body Lotion

CeraVe Baby Moisturizing Lotion is the lower-concern pick, scoring 21 points higher on the PlainScore rubric.

Score, factor by factor

Concern55 / 5542 / 55

How much genuine, cited concern the ingredients carry, weighted by how much of each is likely present and whether the product stays on or rinses off. Commonly feared but low-concern ingredients cost nothing.

Transparency20 / 2020 / 20

Whether the full ingredient list, and any fragrance, are actually disclosed. An undisclosed "fragrance/parfum" blend hides its allergens and costs points.

Formulation restraint25 / 2517 / 25

Needless irritant or allergen load for the product type. A clean, purposeful formula scores well without any "free-from" theater.

PlainScore100 / 10079 / 100

The three factors summed: concern out of 55, transparency out of 20, formulation restraint out of 25. Higher is lower concern.

Left column: CeraVe Baby Moisturizing Lotion. Right: Hempz Sensitive Skin Moisturizing Body Lotion. The bold number wins the factor.
