Loved this article!( like every other I have been reading) I honestly didn’T know about the good and bad alcohols in products!!
I must say I have been obsessed with your website! I have read so many of your articles and I want to thank you, I have gotten a few products from your reviews and loving them so far (at 34 I have been meaning to get quality products) Thanks again! You are doing an amazing job.
Can’t wait to read more articles!

In reply to Mon. Mon, it's really low on the list, so it shouldn't cause any problems. Unless you have an allergic reaction to it, I don't see any reason to switch.

Thanks for the article. I just realised my liquid gel foundation (Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum) has ‘alcohol denat’ listed as the 17th ingredient, out of 29 ingredients. Do you think this should be ok, or should I discontinue using? It does also seem to include moisturising ingredients too.

In reply to JD. JD, that is so annoying. Unfortunately, some people believe only what they want to believe.
