Specially formulated, natural and organic sun protection and after sun care products.
Green People was started in 1997 by Charlotte Vøhtz, who had a background in nursing, herbal medicine and the pharmaceutical industry. She created the brand to help her daughter, Sandra, who suffered from eczema. From the start, Charlotte avoided using harmful ingredients like SLS, parabens and synthetic fragrances, focusing on natural and safe products. After years of research and development, Green People now offers a high quality selection of natural and organic personal care products, designed to be both safe and effective.
Green People sunscreens are free from harsh chemicals and artificial fragrances, making them gentle and suitable for even the most sensitive skin. With their award-winning range of sun creams, you can enjoy the sun's rays without worrying about irritation or discomfort.
Unlike some mainstream sun creams, Green People products do not contain ingredients that promote viral infections in coral reefs. And, unlike pore-clogging waterproof sunscreens that use silicones and mineral oils, Green People sun cream is organic but still water repellent. This allows your skin to maintain its natural balance without feeling suffocated.
Rich in natural antioxidants, let your skin breathe and feel nourished with Green People sunscreens and after sun lotion. As a UK stockist of Green People products, browse the selection at Healf.

Green People sun cream can sometimes stain clothes, particularly lighter fabrics. The natural UV filters used in their sun creams might cause yellow stains on white or light-coloured clothing. To minimise staining, it's best to let the sun cream fully absorb into your skin before dressing.
