Guest guest Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 Is that question for me?? I usually use Vit. e, and ROE, and no water. So yes. Does the steric acid act as a preservative?

Guest guest Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 I used stearic in the last batch of body butter I made and I love it. Stearic is used as a thickener, not a preservative.

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Now that I have added Steric to my formula, I will not go back. It is not too stiff but just right, where it won't melt during the hot seasons. Hugs Shere' -----Original Message----- From: Rita S. [mailto:rcsoap@...] Hi Shere Yes hon, it is to add stiffness to the mixture to help it not melt so quickly in the jars. Here in Georgia it gets pretty hot in the summer months and I wanted it to be able to travel without melting all in my purse. Hope you enjoy the formulas honey. God Bless :-) Rita...
