Hi,

could you at least share what the lipid portion? In total? 
And extracts?

When you state you add Tocopherol into Oil phase. Does that mean you are heating it with all the lipid portion for emulsification? 
That might be the problem. Tocopherol (I am guessing you are not using Tocopherol Acetate) is heat sensitive and if you are using it in balm/hot pour, you need to increase its input significantly as some of it does oxidase due to the high temperature. 

Also, I am not really sure about your preservation system. 
Gluconactone does help with preservation of the product, but I would not rely on it. Especially with Potassium Sorbate only. (You have a very nutrient rich formula)

Hi! Paprik, tocopherol acetate has no antioxidant protective benefits in formulas, it only provides antioxidant benefits to the skin. It’s a very common mistake though.
