Teach Soap

I have finally come up with a cream/butter I like on my face, though I may find it's too heavy for the summer. So far I've been making tiny batches but would like to make a larger batch and use it on my body as well. But I want to put a preservative in it as I keep it in the bathroom. Plus you guys scared me with comments about stuff near your eyes!

I am using shea butter, SAO, candula (which I know I spelled wrong), hemp seed oil, walnut oil and jojoba.

I have phenip and one other preservative, I think Germaben - I think one is for oil and one is for water. I'm guessing I need to use the one for oils here? What is the percentage of use?

Thanks so much!
Diane

Since there is no water in it, I would suggest Phenonip. It's oil soluble and it's used at 0.5%-1.0%

Awesome, thanks so much! Cant wait to make a bigger batch now

You're welcome. Make sure you have an accurate scale and don't go higher then the maximum of 1%.
