Clean Personal Care Brands You Can Buy on Amazon

clean personal care brands

Most links are for reference only. However, EarthyB occasionally includes affiliate links and may earn money if you buy a product from these links.

Last week I wrote about the toxic ingredients in many personal care products. There are way more choices now than there were ten years ago, but most drug stores and department stores still only offer a few clean options. So I created this list. These are the best clean personal care brands you can buy on Amazon, and a few you can find at Target.

Many come from are B-Corporations, which means they balance purpose and profit as part of the business plan. Others offer squeaky clean skincare for kids and eczema-prone skin. Some have Made Safe and EWG Verifications. A few are 1% for the planet members. I include a few nature-based personal care budget brands without certifications because we all define clean beauty differently. You can buy them all on Amazon (and a few at Target!)
