Re: Preservative for sugar/salt scrub advice needed

you will need to use the germall at about 1% as a preservative. any kind of

scrub that may get water in it needs a preservative.

hope this helps. when is she leaving and for how long?

Preservative for sugar/salt scrub advice needed

I have a youngster at camp who gets very grimy.

I found a couple sugar scrub recipes that I thought I could try. If anyone has

a favorite

without exotci ingredients( I can do those later) would love to try them out.

Okay at home I have Covi-ox T-50 (vit.e) and liquid germall.

Most of the recipes I found are sugar and oil, and fo/eo's for fragrance.

Can I use them to preserve?

Thanks in advance (as always!)

Covi-ox T-50 is an antioxidant and will retard rancidity.

Liquid Germall Plus is used in water soluble systems. If your scrub

is anhydrous (with out water), you'll need a preservative that is oil

soluble.

Phenonip is one choice. Here are some others.
