Sensitive Skin Warning

some customers are complaining our lotion stings their face and a few even their body skin since we switched to Optiphen Plus. It was suggested it could be the Sorbic Acid. Backing off to 1% may help in future batches.

A must have for safe DIYs!

Safety must always comes first. I rarely create anything without the use of a safe preservative system and especially if the end product is in a jar. I love that this preservative is Formaldehyde free and Paraben free; plus broad spectrum and mixes well with other ingredients. Thanks Voyageur.
