Ingredients: Denatured Alcohol Ethanol
Ethanol, also called alcohol, ethyl alcohol and grain alcohol, is a clear, colorless liquid and the principle ingredient in alcoholic beverages like beer, wine or brandy. Because it can readily dissolve in water and other organic compounds, ethanol also is an ingredient in a range of products, from personal care and beauty products to paints and varnishes to fuel.
Ethyl alcohol must be made unfit for drinking before it can be used in cosmetics. Various substances such as denatnium benzoate are added to the alcohol to make it malodorous and obnoxious in order to completely prevent its use for drinking.
Commonly used in cosmetic ingredients as an astringent and as a preservative in lotions and can even help hairspray adhere to the hair.
Ethanol is also effective in killing microorganisms like bacteria, fungi and viruses, therefore is popular for the use of hand sanitsers and cleaning products.
