Alcohol in skin care products

Alcohol = dehydration, you have learned, which is true.

But when I read the table of contents of Weleda's products which are natural and very good, and saw that they contain alcohol, I started googling around and have found a lot of information on the subject that you probably find interesting! :)

For example, products with alcohol should not be used to dry out e.g. pimples, an oily skin only produces even more fat if it becomes dry and the skin does not feel good from being dried out with alcohol. And you should also be careful and not use alcohol products too often, for example Mixing Liquid (which is used to attach glitter) is not something you should use daily.

BUT organic / organic products can usually contain alcohol, and there should be no danger at all as the caring and natural ingredients compensate so that the product never becomes dehydrating for the skin.

Det alkoholen gör i organiska produkter, är dels att konservera produkten så att den inte blir gammal – på så vis slipper man använda syntetiska konserveringsmedel vilket är bra! Dessutom så “tar den fram” det nyttiga ur växterna så att de ämnena blir mer aktiva.

So do not be afraid that there is alcohol in the table of contents of natural products! :)

Hug!
