Does the Innisfree series contain alcohol? Why does the Innisfree Green Tea series contain alcohol?

The alcohol contained in skin care products causes many girls to have allergies on their faces, enlarged skin pores, etc., so many people seem to be resistant to alcohol. So, does the Innisfree series contain alcohol?

Does the Innisfree series contain alcohol?

The Innisfree series contains alcohol. For example, the Green Tea series contains alcohol and the alcohol concentration is not low. However, containing alcohol does not mean it is bad. People nowadays say that alcohol is too bad, but in fact, alcohol has many benefits. If the Innisfree Green Tea series did not have alcohol, it would not be so refreshing and it would not be possible to control the oil production rate of the skin. So, it’s not that skin care products containing alcohol should not be used, but that skin care products containing alcohol are more suitable for oily skin, as they target different skin types.

Why does Innisfree Green Tea contain alcohol?

1. Alcohol is required to extract ingredients

The green tea ingredient in Innisfree needs to be extracted from the raw materials using alcohol. This is the only way to extract the most ideal green tea ingredient and ensure that the green tea effect can be maximized in the Innisfree green tea series.

2. Alcohol can keep the ingredients of Innisfree Green Tea series stable

Alcohol can play a bactericidal role and prevent bacteria from multiplying. It can effectively ensure that skin care products are not easy to expire and can act as a stabilizing ingredient.

3. Optimize the user experience

Water cannot penetrate human skin. In order to allow moisturizing ingredients to penetrate, skin care products use surfactants. However, it still takes time for the active ingredients to penetrate, and the longer this time is, the more users will feel that the product is greasy, sticky, and unabsorbable. Skin care product manufacturers all know that products that are branded as "greasy and non-absorbent" will not be liked by consumers. Therefore, they use alcohol to evaporate water, creating the illusion of rapid absorption and making the skin care products feel refreshing when used. However, because of this, excessive moisture on the skin surface may evaporate, causing the skin to become dry. Therefore, if you have dry skin, try to avoid using skin care products containing alcohol.

What skin types are suitable for Innisfree Green Tea series?

1. Acne-prone skin

Skin care products containing alcohol can keep the skin clean, shrink large pores on the face, and clean dirt on the skin surface. This is an essential ingredient for improving acne skin. The fact that the Innisfree Green Tea series contains alcohol does not mean it is bad, it just targets different skin types.

2. Oily skin

Innisfree Green Tea series is suitable for oily skin because it contains alcohol, which can inhibit the oil production rate of the skin. However, skin care products containing alcohol ingredients do not have good moisturizing effect, so they are not suitable for dry skin and for use in winter.
