Common questions

Is PURPOSE Gentle Cleansing Wash healthy?

PURPOSE Gentle Cleansing Wash scores 34/100 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.

What is in PURPOSE Gentle Cleansing Wash?

PURPOSE Gentle Cleansing Wash lists 7 ingredients, starting with Peg-80 Sorbitan Laurate, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Peg-150 Distearate, Fragrance and Quaternium-15. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does PURPOSE Gentle Cleansing Wash contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in PURPOSE Gentle Cleansing Wash’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is PURPOSE Gentle Cleansing Wash?

We don’t have a NOVA classification on file for PURPOSE Gentle Cleansing Wash yet, so the processing axis scores it neutrally.

How does PURPOSE Gentle Cleansing Wash compare to other skin care?

At 34/100 PURPOSE Gentle Cleansing Wash scores worse than most skin care we have scored. A higher-scoring option in skin care is Hanasia Aloe Vera Drink at 100/100.

Is PURPOSE Gentle Cleansing Wash organic?

Has PURPOSE Gentle Cleansing Wash been lab tested?

Not yet. No independent lab has published results for PURPOSE Gentle Cleansing Wash, so its score is based on its ingredient list, processing and packaging alone.
