Essential Oils

You may notice that some products contain the following ingredients: benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, benzyl salicylate, citral, citronellol, coumarin, eugenol, farnesol, geraniol, isoeugenol, limonene and linalool. The reason that these are listed is because they are naturally present in the essential oils we use. We do not add them separately as isolated fragrance ingredients.

If you have diagnosed allergies to any of these ingredients, we recommend trying our Scent Free range, which is completely free from perfume or essential oils.

Ingredients We Never Use

These are just a few of the ingredients you will never find in our products (excluding scalp massage tool, which contains silicone). We prioritise gentle, natural and organic ingredients to create truly skin-friendly products. Our products are:

• Alcohol free (Ethyl alcohol/ethanol), Paraben free, Silicone free, Gluten free, SLS free (Sodium lauryl sulphate), Lanolin free, Artificial perfume free, Phthalate free

Organic Certifications

We believe that it is very important for companies claiming to produce organic cosmetics to have some form of independent certification to back up these claims. Independent certification guarantees to consumers that products are genuinely made with high levels of organic ingredients, and are free from a wide range of synthetic ingredients that are prohibited from use in certified organic cosmetics.

In 1999 Charlotte was invited to be on a Soil Association committee to design the first standards for organic beauty. Charlotte, and later Green People’s Cosmetic Scientist Ian Taylor, played a huge role in setting natural and organic cosmetic regulations.

Green People was one of the very first companies to have cosmetic products certified organic by the Soil Association just after their Cosmetic Standard was launched in 2002, followed by Organic Food Federation in 2003. Finally, we achieved certification with EcoCert in 2009 making us the only cosmetics company to be independently certified by three different certification bodies.

All three of these certification bodies have very strict rules on the nature and type of ingredients that can be used. Full formulation details have to be submitted for approval, and annual inspections are carried out to check on manufacturing and packaging operations. Full traceability of every organic ingredient is an integral part of the certification process, which makes it possible to track raw materials right back to the farmer and patch of land where the crop was grown from which that ingredient came.

At the time of writing Green People have 140 products of which almost 90% are certified by one or more of the certification bodies mentioned above.
