Hmmm… since Nutrigarnics has started listing their ingredients, I was a bit surprised to see “Parfum” aka “Fragrance”, Benzyl Alcohol, Cetearyl Alcohol , Stearyl Alcohol, etc. which are known irritants. Ouch… I would not want to put those ingredients on my face at all. Those who’re fairly daring would probably not mind, though.
Btw, you mentioned that the Skin Blossom hand cream was fairly attractive due to its pricing. Have you tried that yet?
Plant based alcohol are quite common in many natural/organic formulations. The argument is that they need the alcohol to hold the ingredients together. Personally, I try to avoid because I find them drying for me…but if it’s listed at the end, I’m less concerned. For parfum…I’ve heard from a reader that essential oils are also listed as fragrance in Europe. But I’m not sure about TBS’s.
No, not tried Skin Blossom yet. I’ve just bought a ton of body products from Lavera recently and need to clear those first before I move on.
Hi Sesame, I am the Nutriganics giveaway winner and am looking forward to using them in my daily routine. I was wondering if you got my reply to your email notifying me of my win and to provide you my address.
Thanks!
