OEKO-TEST regularly tests a wide range of consumer products in the interests of public health and safety. These tests are conducted by independant labs and the results published monthly. Lavera products have been tested over 350 times by OEKO-TEST magazine since June of 1994. The classification used for these tests are: Sehr gut (very good), gut (good), befriedigend (satisfactory), ausreichend (sufficient), mangelhaft (inadequate), ungenugend (unsatisfactory)
Since March 2007, the certified natural cosmetic products and conventional cosmetic products are tested separately. Prior to this, a review of a product category such as Lipstick would have conventional lipsticks ranked alongside lipsticks from certified natural manufacturers.
Below are some Lavera products which scored Good or Very Good in recent tests.
