A reliable broad spectrum preservative for advanced DIY users only. For those familiar with formulating their own DIY skincare regimen, use Germaben as a preservative in your water-based personal care products. This water soluble preservative is recommended for lotions, creams, serums, shampoos, and other water-based personal care products. We do not recommend it for use in anhydrous products.
How to use it
Advanced: This ingredient is a highly effective broad spectrum preservative that is recommended for use at 0.5-1% and in a pH range of 3-7.5 in formulations. Add during the cool down phase of production, but before the addition of any fragrance.
Quick Tips
