    Preservatives are necessary here as Aloe vera is from natural source.

    There’s a very simple rule - if you are selling something commercially, you ALWAYS need to have a PET run. No exceptions.

    As Perry stated, Aloe has a high water content. It in and of itself must be preserved and any product using Aloe Vera must have a broad spectrum preservative.
