Our “Planet” rating evaluates brands based on the environmental policies in their supply chains, from carbon emissions to wastewater, ingredients' impacts, product circularity, and more. Here we rate ICI PARIS XL “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• There’s no evidence it uses any lower-impact ingredients.
• It’s set a science-based target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in both its direct operations and supply chain but there’s no evidence it is on track.
• It has no policy to evaluate the biodegradability and environmental toxicity of its ingredients.
• It recycles product packaging and discloses the amount.
• A medium proportion of its palm oil is RSPO-certified. 

Workers’ rights are central to our “People” rating, which assesses brands’ policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate ICI PARIS XL “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• Part of its final production stage is certified by Business Social Compliance Initiative Code of Conduct - BSCI.
• There’s no evidence it provides financial security to its suppliers, which can result in poor working conditions and wages.
• Its Code of Conduct covers ILO Four Fundamental Freedoms principles.
• It audits some of its suppliers but does not specify what proportion.
• It uses mica, but it hasn't disclosed any information regarding responsible sourcing that mitigates human rights risks.
• There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.

Note that the "People" rating in Good On You’s methodology is defined by labour rights and does not consider consumer health.

Brands’ animal welfare policies and, where applicable, how well they trace their animal-derived products, are the focus of our “Animals” rating. Here we rate ICI PARIS XL “Very Poor”. 

• It doesn’t clearly state what animal-derived ingredients it uses.
• It does not have a certification, policy, or statement against the use of animal testing in its supply chain.

Based on all the publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate ICI PARIS XL “Not Good Enough” overall.
