    @PhilGeis

    thank you for your suggestion, so would you say 50/50 benzoate/phenoxy at a combined percentage of maybe 1%?

    I have been using sodium phytate as my chelating agent and would prefer to continue with that instead of edta.

    I was recently struggling with not being to fully hydrate my cationic guar gum in water or glycerin. It would keep separating. I finally let the guar sit in the glycerin for 24hrs and that seemed to do the trick. Not sure why my particular grade of guar seems to take so much longer to hydrate than other people’s, but that’s what finally worked for me.
