Reading this ingredient record
Use prevalence before concern
Only 16.7% of linked products carry any separately flagged ingredient. The stronger differentiator here is market placement: Acrylates/octylacrylamide Copolymer spans 2 named brands and is led by the Sunscreen group. Start with Premium Moisturizing Sunscreen Spray Broad Spectrum SPF 50; Premium Moisturizing Sunscreen Spray SPF 50; Premium Moisturizing Sunscreen Spray SPF 70 when comparing real formulations. Because the flagged component may be something else, neither the low co-occurrence rate nor the 83.3/100 product average proves this ingredient safe.
2 named brands carry this ingredient
The processing evidence is heterogeneous rather than a single shelf pattern: the largest NOVA group contains 4 of 4 classified products, leaving a meaningful remainder elsewhere. This breadth is why the page reports label depth, category, and product examples separately. Those dimensions help locate comparable products; combining them into a stronger safety claim would hide the variation the catalog actually contains.
Next check: compare label position across two brands before treating prevalence as equivalent exposure.
How do the sampled products compare?
Each point is one of the 6 sampled products listed below: its overall safety score against how many separately flagged ingredients its label carries. Bubble size is the number of ingredient rows the label actually resolved to.
