Rare Beauty is not labeled as “clean” at Sephora because it does not meet Sephora’s specific standards for this label. Sephora’s “Clean at Sephora” label requires products to exclude certain harmful ingredients like parabens, sulfates, phthalates, and mineral oil.
Although Rare Beauty is safe, vegan, and cruelty-free, it does not adhere to these strict definitions. This means that while Rare Beauty products are ethical and safe, they include some ingredients that Sephora does not consider “clean.”
The “Clean at Sephora” label is designed to help customers easily find products free from specific harmful ingredients. Rare Beauty’s formulations may contain some of these excluded ingredients, thus not qualifying for the label.
However, this does not mean Rare Beauty products are unsafe. They are formulated with a focus on safety and ethics, aligning with many consumers’ values. So, while not labeled as “clean,” Rare Beauty remains a popular choice for many beauty enthusiasts.
