Today's Organic Beauty Buy is...


Green People
Foaming Face Wash
100ml £10.95
This foaming cleanser is different from most cleansers, it is incredibly gentle and is free from soap and alcohol, therefore it doesn't leave your skin feeling too tight or raw. I think it works well as an everyday face wash particularly for those who suffer from breakouts. As Green People explain 'Chronic stress can lead to raised hormone levels and increased sebum production, blocked pores and infection.' For someone who suffers with hormonally induced dermatitis I thought this sounded quite appealing and I love how Green People cram full their products with great, organic ingredients. It has worked well, I have found it very gentle, it doesn't irritate my skin and yet it does feel like its giving it a good clean. The cleanser uses green tea to soothe and reduce redness and larch tree extract to form a breathable layer on the skin to protect against pollutants, reducing water loss and improving skin texture.
It feels quite 'down to earth' (maybe its the name...) but it is functional and I think it is reasonably priced. It smells like geranium (also a good plant essence to calm hormones). Certainly an everyday, staple product rather than a luxury one...
This product is 96.4% Organic ingredients and does not contain any of the following: Parabens, lanolin, sodium lauryl, phthalates, propylene glycol, foaming agents, irritating emulsifiers, urea, DEA, TEA or PEGs.
Green People are Fair Trade, Vegan and 10% of net profit is donated to charity.
