Minimum Shelf life:
Do not blend different preservatives with each other unless you are experienced in this area and can have the result tested for efficacy. If you are adding extra materials to a base product, you may need to add extra preservative as well. Ensure the same preservative as the base product is used.
We do not recommend this preservative for use with clays. We found in our tests, that the clay absorbed the preservative leaving the water element vulnerable to contamination.
Preservatives are needed for most cosmetic formulations that include water. There are some companies that have very stringent manufacturing procedures to ensure the hygiene of the product and the ratio of some of the materials may make the product quite stable against contamination. Shampoos can sometimes do this as they are often very alkaline, However, that alkalinity is not very comfortable on the scalp.
Vitamin E used to be referred to as a preservative because it preserved the shelf life of the product. However, Vitamin E only acts as an antioxidant for the oils in the product, preventing them from going rancid too quickly. It is not a preservative by today's accepted standards. For more information on the difference between preservatives and antioxidants, and the importance of preservatives in cosmetics, take a look at this article; Preservatives & Antioxidants in Cosmetics

United KingdomPreserative 12 is very good preservative. I have used my new cream to make sure I have introduced bacteria to it. I am testing it by using dipslides for over month now. The result is no bacteria present at all. The test is performed in elevated temperature which is more prone to develop bacteria. Preservative 12 is really effective products to use in creams and lotions. I recommend it to beginners and experienced formulators.
