Guest guest Posted June 12, 2003 Report Share Posted June 12, 2003 Hi, To my knowledge, vitamin E is good for both lipbalm & lotion. Grapeseed extract is good for lotion Essential oil is a good option for both too. HTH Tara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 12, 2003 Report Share Posted June 12, 2003 Be careful ... Vit E and grapeseed extract are antioxidants, not preservatives. There is a difference. Your best bet is to go with Phenonip or Germaben II. Most supply sites carry them. I use antioxidants and preservatives so that I can use a small amount of the preservative. All in all, though, it's worth it to avoid someone being injured by a product that has bacterial growth. (ewwwwwwwwwwwwww) pamela ... vitamin E is good for both lipbalm & lotion.

If you go to the calculator section they have a calculator for nearly everything, soap making recipes, recpie measurments to % calcs, metric converters, and even pricing calculators and of course a preservative calculator.
