Clean Beauty Guide: What is 'EWG Green Grade' & Why MIBYUL Insists On It 🌿💚

Hello, skincare family!

Welcome back to the STAR IN SEOUL beauty blog! This is Byul, your favorite skincare researcher from MIBYUL, here to share an essential guide on ingredient safety and clean formulation! 💖

In our previous post, we unlocked the deep hydration benefits of Beta-Glucan. Today, we’re stepping back to address a question many clean beauty enthusiasts ask: "What exactly is the EWG Green Grade, and why is it so important?"

If you've ever checked the back of your skincare bottles and noticed the term "EWG Green," today I'm breaking down what it means and how MIBYUL applies these rigorous safety standards across our entire lineup! Let’s get into the details! 👏

🚨 Global Safety Benchmark: What is the EWG? 🛡️

EWG stands for the Environmental Working Group, a renowned non-profit environmental organization based in the United States.

To protect human health and the environment, the EWG researches and analyzes the toxicity, allergenicity, and safety profiles of ingredients used in cosmetics, personal care products, agricultural goods, and water supplies.

Using extensive scientific literature and clinical data, the EWG rates cosmetics ingredients on a hazard scale from 1 to 10, giving consumers an objective metric for safety.

🟢 The Safe Signal: Understanding the 'EWG Green Grade' 🚦

The EWG organizes its hazard ratings into three distinct color-coded tiers:

• 1–2 Grade (Green): Low hazard and high safety margin. Ingredients in this tier are verified as safe, gentle, and suitable for hypersensitive skin—this is the EWG Green Grade! 💚

• 3–6 Grade (Yellow): Moderate hazard tier; ingredients that require moderate caution or further research.

• 7–10 Grade (Red): High hazard tier; ingredients associated with potential irritations, toxicities, or allergies.

Earning an EWG Green Grade signifies that an ingredient has been thoroughly evaluated and poses no known significant risk to human health or skin health.
