  Can I combine two preservatives?

  Can I combine phenoxyethanol and Geogard Ect for my natural shampoo and face wash?…
  What’s should be the ratio for both these preservatives?
  Will that be ok if I use phenoxyethanol-0.5%+ Geogard Ect -0.5% ??

  You can - but the combination is not great.  Benzyl or phenoxy with benzoate AND a chelator will do well in a shampoo.  But “natural”
