Is Otherland non-toxic?

Otherland scores 65/100 (Grade C, moderate risk) and holds no third-party certifications on record. The brand has no documented CPSC recalls, FDA warning letters, or active lawsuits, but lacks transparent ingredient disclosure and fragrance policies that would clarify whether products meet non-toxic standards.

Certifications

No third-party non-toxic certifications on record.

Otherland is an independent US-based candle brand with an unknown founding year. The company does not appear to maintain full ingredient disclosure on its website, and fragrance transparency policies are not documented. This opacity makes it difficult for consumers to independently verify whether formulations align with non-toxic principles. The brand's regulatory standing with the FDA under the Modernized Cosmetics Regulatory Modernization Act (MoCRA) registry is unknown, and no warning letters or adverse event reports have been identified. On the enforcement side, Otherland has a clean record: zero CPSC recalls and no active or historic lawsuits are on file. However, the absence of enforcement action does not constitute positive evidence of safety or non-toxicity. Without third-party certifications, ingredient transparency, or published testing data, consumers cannot independently verify claims about product safety or ingredient sourcing. The moderate risk score reflects this gap between a clean regulatory history and insufficient transparency.

Flagged ingredients

No flagged ingredients surfaced by INCI parsing or the EWG Skin Deep database.
