Which listings may be out of date?

Formulas change and databases keep the list they were given. Where one database's ingredient list differs from the others on a clear marker (parabens or fragrance), or EWG labels its listing with a formulation year, we show it here as a question, not a finding: a majority of published lists is evidence, not proof of the current formula.

Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Kiss Cupuacu Lip Butter: EWG Skin Deep omits fragrance (4 lists with / 1 without; EWG Skin Deep date March 2020)
Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Kiss Cupuacu Lip Butter: EWG titles its listing "Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Kiss Cupuacu Lip Butter (2020 formulation)" (updated March 2020)
