How are OHA products preserved?
OHA uses organic corn and/or grape derived alcohol to preserve products. We use this same gentle alcohol to extract our herbs, such as our green tea extract. Our ingredient list may only list the herbal extract and not the organic alcohol. We do not use denatured alcohol (SD) or any with added synthetics or petroleum products, such as isopropyl alcohol. The alcohol OHA uses is food grade, extremely safe, and does not dry the skin. Many, in fact most, of our ingredients have some preservative properties to them. This is especially true of the antioxidant vitamins E and C, and the antiseptic essential oils used in our product formulations.
