EWG Rated vs. EWG Verified
EWG Verified is the highest safety score a product can receive. At Think, we have several personal care products that are fully EWG Verified. An EWG Top Rating score of 1 or 2 (considered by the EWG to be the lowest hazard) is the next safest option. Top rated EWG products are considerably safer than something that is rated moderate or high hazard.Â
