Now, Green People are not a new brand, they have been around for nearly twenty years and we have been selling their natural cosmetics range since the beginning of Ethical Superstore so it\u2019s probably a good time to get to know the brand.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\n*<strong>Don&#8217;t miss our special offer &#8211; 15% off <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ethicalsuperstore.com\/products\/green-people\/\">Green People<\/a><\/strong>, offer expires 5th June 2015*<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ethicalsuperstore.com\/products\/green-people\/\">Green People<\/a> was established in 1997, but the real story started three years before with Charlotte and her two-year-old daughter Sandra who suffered from multiple skin allergies and eczema \u2013 conditions that were worsened by the chemicals found in regular skin care products and everyday toiletries. While most people are encouraged to start their own business because they wish to be their own boss, make more money or start something new, for Charlotte it was all about finding a way to help treat the skin conditions her daughter was suffering from. <\/p>\n<p>Now, fast forward three years to the creation of Green People, a brand founded on ethical principles ensuring that product performance and practice would never be sacrificed for profit. Green People stands out from regular cosmetics brands because they are committed to producing all natural skin care made with organic ingredients certified by three different bodies \u2013 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.soilassociation.org\/\">The Soil Association<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.orgfoodfed.com\/\">Organic Food Federation<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ecocert.com\/en\">EcoCert<\/a>. They promise to never use synthetic ingredients and irritating chemicals that can be found in mainstream brands, so you won\u2019t find sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS), parabens, phthalates, petrochemicals, alcohol (ethanol) or synthetic fragrances or colourants in any Green People products (which are also completely cruelty free)!<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ethicalsuperstore.com\/products\/green-people\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ethicalsuperstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Green-People.jpg\" alt=\"Green-People\" width=\"500\" height=\"279\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6685\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ethicalsuperstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Green-People.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.ethicalsuperstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Green-People-300x167.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>I think it\u2019s easy to see why we would choose to offer this great brand to you, certified organic with all natural ingredients means these products are much better for you as well as being kind to the environment, it\u2019s a win-win! But their great work goes deeper than just what they make, in 1999 Charlotte approached the Soil Association to encourage the organisation to create standards for organic health and beauty products at a time when you only needed 1% of natural ingredients to call your products \u2018natural\u2019. Charlotte was invited to be on the committee and Green People have had a huge role in designing and setting natural and organic cosmetic standards.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not expecting you to take our word on the high quality of these products, personally I have used a few and honestly I think they\u2019re great, they smell gorgeous and make my skin feel soft and refreshed \u2013 more so than any artificial additive infused cosmetics! However, Green People is an award winning brand, and I don\u2019t know about you but to me that means something. It proves that these products have performed above and beyond others \u2013 Green People won 36 awards in 2014 alone! <\/p>\n<p>To enable you make informed, ethical choices, we like to offer the widest range possible so that there is something for everyone, and Green People helps us with their unscented range for extra sensitive skin and products made specifically for baby &#038; child so parents can be safe in the knowledge that there little ones are not being exposed to potentially harmful and irritating chemicals.
