Thanks for the response. I m checking for bacteria and mould with microbial test kit. I feel what u r suggesting is possible since this particular time the extra water that I added to compensate for the water lost to evaporation was straight from the distilled water jar. Generally I bring water to boil and then add.

Thanks a lot!

I have a foot cream made with magnesium oil. In just 1 instance it turned pink on the surface in 2-3 days. I m clueless why it happened. My formulation includes

Shea butter

Jojoba oil

Magnesium chloride

Distilled water

Olivem1000

Olivem800

Cetyl alcohol

Arrowroot powder

Geoguard ECT

Potassium Sorbate and sodium Benzoate

Tea tree, Rosemary and eucalyptus EO

I am making a hair conditioner with Shea Butter, Olive Oil, BTMS50, Cetyl Alcohol, Water, Glycerin, Aloe Vera Extract, D Panthenol, Silk Proteins. The water phase is 65% of the formulation. It is a thick creamy consistency and will be put in a jar and not a pump bottle. Is it safe to use Euxyl PE 9010 @1% along with Sodium Benzoate & Potassium sorbate (liquid blend) @1% ?
