Coverage & match quality
7 ratings · 2 of 4 axes

- Fewer raters reach smaller-brand products, so a missing rating is not a clean bill of health, only a gap.

- PETROLATUM: A barrier that sits on the surface of the skin, which is also why it feels heavy. FDA OTC skin protectant monograph, 21 CFR 347.10(m) and (r), lists petrolatum and white petrolatum as skin protectants at 30 to 100%.
