No, our range of natural and organic sun creams does not contain nanoparticles. Instead, we use non-nano Zinc Oxide and non-nano Titanium Dioxide as part of our UV filters.

Green People are and always have been totally opposed to any cruelty to animals. Since starting the Green People in 1997, we have operated to the following principles:

Ingredients we never use are: Parabens, alcohol (ethyl alcohol, ethanol), harsh foaming agents, SLS/SLES, gluten, petrochemicals, mineral oils, silicones, lanolin, phthalates, triclosan, propylene glycol, irritating emulsifiers, synthetic fragrance, ethoxylated ingredients...

If people have severe allergies to nuts, then it would be wisest to avoid all products made in premises that use or handle nuts. Although many of our products are made without nut-sourced ingredients, because almond oil is present on the premises there is always a risk of accidental contamination, albeit extremely slight. 

All Green People products that contain essential oils use them at concentrations of less than 1.5% therefore all of our organic beauty products can be safely used during pregnancy.

With the exception of products containing an SPF, our products do not have an expiry or best before date. Find out more.

We know it’s annoying when you accidentally run out of your favourite skin care product so we have a great tip for staying on top your beauty stash.

To get an idea of how much product you have left in our skin care tubes and hand wash bottles, switch your mobile phone torch on and lie the phone on a flat surface before placing the product on the torch light.

Our children's sun lotion offers 97% coverage from UVB rays, which is considered a high level of protection.

The palm oil used in Green People products is from certified organic sources in countries that do not have native orang-utans such as the Philippines and Ecuador.

It is possible to ascertain the date of manufacture from the batch number of the product.

All of our products are vegetarian and the majority are Vegan, however there is the odd product which contains Beeswax or Propolis. All vegan products are marked as being such.
