Seal of Acceptance™ Criteria

The Seal’s Scientific Oversight Committee has developed a set of strict criteria for all products that obtain the Seal, which demonstrates that a product meets our highest standards, as outlined below.

  • Products cannot contain any ingredients on the Ecz-clusion List.  
  • All products must be fragrance free with no scent present in the formula. U.S. labeling laws require a company to note on the label if there is a fragrance.
  • Chemical UV absorbers, such as chemical-based sunscreens, will not be accepted. Only physical sunscreen products containing titanium, zinc and iron will be considered.
  • Products with formaldehyde releasers will not be accepted. 
  • Products with cannabidiol (CBD) will not be accepted.

Products must fall into one of the Seal product categories approved for licensing:

  • Personal care products
    • Moisturizers
    • Cleansers
    • Hair products
    • Disposable wipes
    • Deodorant/Anti-perspirant
    • Lip care, which includes: (if the lip product does not fit the below type then the product will be considered on a case-by-case basis.)
      • Lip balm
      • Lip salve
      • Lip oil
      • Lip gel
      • Lip butter
