Question 1

Alcohol  is a driying agent why is this in the ingredients

Accepted Answer

Hello Angel, great question. Cetearyl Alcohol (Cetyl + Stearyl Alcohol) is a fatty alcohol that is an organic compound derived from coconut, palm, corn, soy or coconut palm trees and acts as a great emollient, emulsifier and amazing moisturizer. Fatty alcohols (aka high molecular alcohols) are a hybrid between alcohols and fatty oils and they are completely different to regular alcohols like ethanol (aka low molecular alcohols). There is often a misconception when the word alcohol is seen that it will dry out hair and skin, when the complete opposite is true. Fatty alcohols don’t have the same drying effect on hair and skin like more commonly known low molecular alcohols because of their structure. Because of their unique structure, fatty alcohols trap water and provides a soothing and moisturizing feel to the skin and hair. In addition, The Cosmetic Ingredient Review has deemed Cetearyl alcohol safe in cosmetic ingredients and Whole Foods has deemed the ingredient acceptable in its body care quality standards and EWG scores a 1 for this ingredient (1 being the best and 10 the worst) We hope that we answered your question and shed some light on this ingredient.

Question 2

Isn’t phenoxyethanol toxic?

Accepted Answer

Hello Mistya

Thank you for asking the question, we believe reviewing every ingredient is extremely important so that you know what you are purchasing.

Phenoxyethanol occurs naturally in green tea but can also be man-made in a lab to create a nature like ingredient. The main purpose and goal for this ingredient is to fight off bacteria. Because we use plant derived ingredients in our products it can create a breeding ground for bacteria even to the point where the product will appear and smell fine but crawling with bacteria which would be un safe. By using a very small amount of Phenoxyethanol it acts as a biodegradable preservative, far better than the most used alternatives, parabens and formaldehyde which we would never use in any of our products. Phenoxyethanol is extremely safe at low levels of up to 1%. Japan and the Cosmetics Regulation of the European Union (which has more stringent and protective laws for cosmetics than any other region globally) approved phenoxyethanol in concentrations up to 1 percent. Aside from that, Whole Foods has also deemed the ingredient acceptable in its body care quality standards and the Cosmetics Ingredient Review Panel reviewed the available data in 1990 and 2007 and have indicated that it’s safe for its approved uses up to 1%. There is a misconception around this ingredient because most studies have found negative effects on full 100% strength use. On actual usage the amount is extremely small and that is why the ingredient is  approved at 1% by the FDA. We go a step further and use less than the global approved percentage in our detangler. We hope that this information shines more light on this safe and global approved ingredient and that we answered your question and concerns regarding why we use this ingredient and why we believe this ingredient is a far better and safer alternative to Formaldehyde and Parabens that most companies use in their products.
