Anti-oxidants for Facial Oil
I am in the process of creating a facial oil (rosehip, jojoba and others) and am wondering what the best anti-oxidant would be. The product is aimed at the natural market so something more “natural” is preferred.
Is Vitamin E (Tocopherol) suitable? Or do I need something stronger?
Has anyone used Rosemary Oleoresin Extract? Would this be suitable for a facial product?
Or will I need to use something like BHT?
Any experience or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate may be worth a shot if the budget allows for it.
Also, this product looks like something similar and makes some pretty hefty claims about the antioxidant content of Moringa Seed Oil -
Just realizing you were likely referring to antioxidants to delay rancidity in the oils rather than as claims ingredients.
In that case, I can say that I’ve played around quite a bit with Rosamox from Kemin in facial products and not found them to be irritating in the least. -
We like Rosamox here also - although we’ve recently had supply issues, ymmv.

Thanks for the information. I will check out the availability of Rosamox here in Oz.
