Alcohol (ethanol/ethyl alcohol) can be extremely drying for the skin and hair and may cause reactions for people with sensitive skin. Alcohol is often used to give skin care products a light skin feel, in reality the alcohol evaporates on contact with the skin, stripping away the beneficial oils that maintain its healthy balance.

All Green People products are free from drying alcohol (ethanol/ethyl alcohol) and contain only gentle ingredients that are suitable for even the most sensitive skin. 

Alcohol may be used by mainstream skin care companies as part of the preservative blend. Because alcohol isn’t technically a preservative, it can be used at high levels of around 15-20% which may cause irritation and dryness.

Green People’s alcohol-free skin care uses gentle, non-irritating preservatives that are approved for use in certified organic cosmetics. All Green People beauty products are formulated with nature and science in balance to nourish, hydrate and protect your skin.

The drying effects of alcohol can also impact your hair. Using hair care products that contain alcohol may cause hair to become dry, brittle and damaged and can also cause scalp irritation and flakiness.

Green People’s alcohol-free hair care contains very high levels of certified organic ingredients and is free from irritating chemicals. Aloe Vera and Avocado are soothing and nourishing for the hair and scalp, whilst naturally derived foaming agents cleanse the hair without stripping its natural, beneficial oils.
