Tht basically ans 1, 2, 3, 5,.<br />As for the sugar scrub the reason why we add preservative is because it will be exposed to humid watery area and watery hands will be scooping it out so it needs preservative; as mentioned in the article too: (100oil product or product with no water). As for how long; if unused its 2 yrs but once exposed to air (started using it in bathroom) try to finish it within 1-2 months.

I have a few question about preservative
1) ...Hi,<br /><br />I have a few question about preservative<br /><br />1) Does cool process soap required to add preservative? <br /><br />2) Is the preservative only required in liquid soap, but not solid soap?<br /><br />3) Does your soap base contain preservative? Do I need to add preservative for longer shelf life ? If solid soap if not required preservative which you have already answered in question 1, please ignore.<br /><br />4) I notice you have mentioned if the product doesn't contain water, preservative is not required (Which I have googled it as well). However, in one of your course "HOW TO MAKE SUGAR SCRUB (NON GREASY)", "6)4.5g DMDM Hydantoin (Preservative)" is one of the ingredient you have mentioned. Could you please briefly explain it? <br />(Link to the course : http://www.soaplabmalaysia.com/2015/05/how-to-make-sugar-scrub-non-greasy.html)<br /><br />5) I have just go through "HOW TO MAKE: PINEAPPLE JASMINE SHAMPOO" and found there is no preservative in the ingredient list. Again, is the preservative already included in the base? Or we have to add it ourselves in order to expend the shelf life? <br />(Again, I know this is probably repeated for question no.2 and 3. Just a confirmation) <br />(Link to the course : http://www.soaplabmalaysia.com/2017/08/how-to-make-pineapple-jasmine-shampoo.html#more)<br /><br />6) May I know how long can I keep for your soap base?<br /><br />Thank you for your patient to answer my question above in advance. =)<br /><br />Best Regards,<br />Lee Fu SoonAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07372465374882875818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-824362562151537624.post-64777205702198582912017-06-15T14:29:39.623+08:002017-06-15T14:29:39.623+08:00This is a good info about preservative.

In lab we do this 'challenge test' to see whether the preservative is strong enough or not for the cosmetics :)<br /><br />As for the preservative, normally it is added at the end stage where temperature and pH have stabilized, due to the fact most of them are sensitive to high pH and temperature. <br />darkcoco88https://www.blogger.com/profile/02058041275115406366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-824362562151537624.post-68889424297918004512016-12-05T11:44:14.670+08:002016-12-05T11:44:14.670+08:00Edayah- If you add preservatives, it depends again...Edayah- If you add preservatives, it depends again on ur cleanliness and other items thats inside. If you are adding something that has a short shelf life it will still expire fast. But if you dont add any preservatives, anything u make you have to discard within 3 days unless u refrigerate it which will expand the shelf life to about 7 days.<br /><br />Gloria- if your cp soap usually doesnt require preservatives because the ph will usually be above 8; which is not a favourable environment for bacteria and mold to grow:-)Soap Lab Malaysiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02689905945267922834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-824362562151537624.post-48713972615120770972016-11-28T14:05:50.554+08:002016-11-28T14:05:50.554+08:00when to put in the preservative for cp soap? into ...when to put in the preservative for cp soap? into oil or during thin trace?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14079232129116765091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-824362562151537624.post-9285496648552530442016-11-23T05:29:55.041+08:002016-11-23T05:29:55.041+08:00If we add preservvatife, how long it will extend l...If we add preservvatife, how long it will extend lifeEdayahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12831019174655458575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-824362562151537624.post-27502473664050575022016-11-14T10:45:37.720+08:002016-11-14T10:45:37.720+08:00Nurasmara yes.
