Vermont Soap Introduces Unscented Version of Award-Winning GREEN GOLD

Vermont Soap is excited to offer a new, unscented version of GREEN GOLD, the award-winning, certified organic herbal moisturizer it successfully launched last September. GREEN GOLD is an age defying beauty treatment for face, hands, neck and all sun damaged skin. This unique, non-toxic and anti-aging moisturizer is safe for the most sensitive skin. With 100% organic plant-based ingredients, it is a healthier alternative to petrochemical-based lotions, salves, serums and balms.

“At Vermont Soap we’ve concluded that petroleum-based ingredients and products are clearly contaminated with traces of benzene and other toxic volatiles from the vagaries of the petroleum refining process,” says Founder Larry Plesent. “Only USDA certified organic skin care guarantees that a product is truly safe, non-toxic and natural,” adds Plesent.

GREEN GOLD Organic Herbal Moisturizer is the result of years of research by Vermont Soap into enhancing the moisturizing and healing effects of shea nut butter. GREEN GOLD smoothes and soothes while reducing the appearance of fine line wrinkles. GREEN GOLD goes in deep to rebuild and restore tired collagen beneath the surface of the skin. Vermont Soap suggests using GREEN GOLD along with their HONEY LOVE BEAUTY MASK and BUTTER BAR as an integrated organic beauty treatment to exfoliate, cleanse, moisturize and restore your skin.

On its own, shea butter is an effective skin unguent known to reduce inflammation. Vermont Soap has enhanced shea butter’s natural properties with essential fatty acids from organic hemp seed oil and with potent anti-inflammatory healing herbs like Calendula, St. Johns Wort and Rosemary. This improves the legendary and well documented skin regenerating properties of natural shea butter.

GREEN GOLD Organic Herbal Moisturizer bears the USDA 95% organic content seal. It contains no preservatives or artificial colors or fragrances. It is also gluten, animal and lactose -free. This revolutionary product is offered in 2.5 ounce bottles for a suggested retail price of $12.48 and 1.5 ounce bottles for only $7.98.

Now in their 20th year in business, Vermont Soapworks is an organic and natural soap innovator. In addition to offering the new Unscented Version of its award-winning GREEN GOLD Organic Herbal Moisturizer, an organic Honey Love Beauty Mask was also recently launched. The company also created the first certified organic floor cleaner and the first certified organic toothbrush sanitizer spray. Other breakthroughs achieved by their Vermont Soap Organics line include the first USDA approved, certified organic: foaming hand soap; bath & shower gel; pet wash; spray cleaner; multipurpose concentrated cleaner; and yoga/exercise mat cleaner.
