  • Skin Care Line Review of Preservatives

    Posted by Ocean on August 27, 2025 at 12:06 am

    Hi there,

    Creating an ayurvedic skincare line and would like a review of the preservatives used to ensure safety (from fungus, mold, gram negative bacteria etc). I want to ensure the products align with the companies ethos and my goal of creating a skincare line that is “clean”, as natural as possible, free of toxins and has skin benefits. Would be great if they could be EWG Verified and Sephora Clean one day. I have been working with a 3rd party and have been in R&D for 2 years.

    Please note I am new to the group and learning. Any and all feedback is welcome. I am passionate about creating a quality skincare line for consumers.

    I would also like to find alternatives for the following:
    TBHQ (Tert-butylhydroquinone)
    PEG derivatives such as PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, and PEG-100 since the supplier can not verify the absence of impurities (1,4-dioxane/ethylene oxide).

    I’ve uploaded the PDF file of all 5 products.
