Paraben Free
Parabens are synthetic chemical preservatives, commonly used in beauty products like shampoo, lotion, and deodorants. Parabens can accumulate in your body, and have been linked to hormonal disruption and reproductive problems. In studies of breast cancer patients, parabens have been found in the tissue of cancerous tumors–yikes! If you want to avoid Parabens in your beauty products, keep an eye out for methylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, and ethylparaben in the ingredients list.
Sulfate Free
Sulfates are synthetic chemical ingredients commonly used in beauty products and household cleaners, like shampoos and dish soaps. You can usually identify sulfates in an ingredients list by looking out for the most common types: Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLC) and Sodium Laureth Sulfates (SLES). These chemicals, often derived from petroleum, are used to help form the “lather” we’re used to seeing in our beauty and cleaning products. When used in the shower or sink, these chemicals can flow through the pipes and into our waterways. Synthetic sulfates have been linked to allergic reactions, eye and skin irritation, and hair loss, and some studies suggest they contain carcinogenic ingredients.

Love it so much, a wonderful clean smell and not sticky or overpowering. My kids love it as well so rather then hearing them whine about how much they hate using so much hand sanitizer they go, “Okay!”. It makes my life just a little bit easier. I bought this and the small bottle so that we could take it in public. LOVE IT!! 10/10 do recommend!

I already have a few other plaine products bottles so I expected the pump to be more of a gel, but was pleasantly surprised when it turned out to be a mist! I must have MISTED it! The product goes on so easily, doesn’t leave you with a sticky, gross feeling, and the scent is nice and light! I now carry it everywhere.
