EWG HAZARD
Low
Learn about EWG Scores Understanding the EWG rating EWG Skin Deep® uses a 1–10 hazard scale based on known and suspected hazards associated with an ingredient. Lower scores indicate a lower hazard rating: 1–2 Low 3–6 Moderate 7–10 High The rating is a useful reference point, but it is not a complete safety assessment. It does not take into account factors such as concentration, exposure or individual sensitivity. Lupito considers EWG information alongside other relevant research and safety information when selection ingredients for our dog-care formulations.

WHAT IS IT?
Meadowfoam Seed Oil is pressed from the seeds of the white meadowfoam plant. Its distinctive long-chain fatty-acid composition gives it a smooth texture and excellent natural resistance to oxidation.
ORIGIN
Plant-derived from the seeds of Limnanthes alba, a flowering plant native to the Pacific Northwest of North America.
BENEFITS
Helps soften and condition dry skin; supports moisture retention; creates a light protective layer; improves the balm’s glide and spreadability; and contributes to the formula’s overall stability.
DID YOU KNOW?
Meadowfoam received its name because its masses of small white flowers can make a blooming field appear covered in foam. Its seed oil is also one of the most oxidation-stable botanical oils used in skincare.
