Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day Lemon Verbena Foaming Hand Soap

Breakdown

4 ingredients to avoid

Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day Lemon Verbena Foaming Hand Soap scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day Lemon Verbena Foaming Hand Soap lists 18 ingredients, starting with Water, Lauryl Glucoside, Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine, Sodium Methyl 2-sulfolaurate and Sodium Lauryl Glucose Carboxylate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day Lemon Verbena Foaming Hand Soap scores worse than most hand soap we have scored. A higher-scoring option in hand soap is Natural Sense Pure Castile Soap Peppermint at 97/100.
