thank you so much
DRBOB, so if I’m adding sweetener at 40C at what temperature should I pour the lip balm? I’m pouring at 65-70C right now. Does it mean that i need to reheat it again? -
Thank you so much for your reply!
I do agree with you on all of it. Usually I’m very cautious and do preserve everything on full scale. However this case, I felt was a bit different.
The product will come out of the tube unlike so many scrubs that come in a jar. So this will reduce contamination by a consumer. (but then you never know what might happen:).
Secondly, since this is a foaming product I found that the phenoxy being a solubilizer by nature, reduces my viscosity. Of course I might go to another preservative but then I’m adding to the cost. And parabens (As much as I love them) are out of the question with our “parable free” claim:) MIT and other are in the same boat.
PS thanks for the book reference, I’ll try to find it:) -
It looks like Lexgard GCP from Inolex ( Inci: Phenethyl Alcohol (and) Glyceryl Caprylate)
