Okay, searching for anything about preservatives is useless! No matter how I word the query it comes back with too many items found! :x I remember reading in one of the threads that one of the preservatives commonly used can smell a bit fishy... which was it? When I venture into conditioner I want to use a non-fishy preservative! I need to add all of these things to my wishlist on BB so I can mention to my fiance that I want to make this stuff at home. And then mention the wishlist :mrgreen: Also, is there one preservative that is "better" for more allergy prone skin than the others? NEVER thought I'd be making things with preservatives! But.... conditioner and lotion are calling. I must heed their call! :mrgreen:

I'm NOT an addict! *twitches* I swear! :shock: :o :?

BTMS might be the one you're thinking of that can smell fishy if heated too high. That's an emulsifier, not a preservative though. Read my thread on preservatives, make your own decision, use it at a proper %, take good notes, have an accurate scale and don't forget to get your lotion tested. :)

How the heck did I miss that sticky? Ugh! Either the flu, or the flu meds LOL :lol: That is exactly what I needed to see, looks like germall plus (liquid) is paraben and formaldehyde free. And good for lotion and conditioner. Just what I need!

I see it also says liquid soaps, none of my liquid soap recipes call for a preservative... should I be adding one?

I ordered germall plus liquid. It says 0.5-1% usage. Just want to make sure I have this right in my head. Add that amount to the 32oz batch of diluted paste once it has cooled, yes? Does it matter if I do it before or after the scent/colour?

Hehehe, ahhh the learning process. Irena is lucky we don't have her number, she'd be getting 300 texts a minute LOL :lol: I got my pot today, and my FO, colour and preservative should be here next week. Then I shall make shampoo! And some foam soap for my bathroom, its so much easier to use than a bar (yes, I am lazy). You guys are sooo feeding my addiction! .....and I love you for it :mrgreen:
