Vichy Idéal soleil
No. No, Vichy Idéal soleil is not alcohol-free.
It lists Alcohol Denat.
- Alcohol Denat
Why
Alcohol-free means no drying alcohol: Alcohol Denat, Ethanol, SD Alcohol, Isopropyl Alcohol. Fatty alcohols like Cetearyl Alcohol are waxes and never count, and Benzyl Alcohol is a preservative.
No, Vichy Idéal soleil is not alcohol-free. It lists Alcohol Denat.
This is not a safety warning. It is a label fact, useful if you avoid this group on purpose.
