Weekday Wonderings: Substitutes for parabens in an emulsified scrub"
In this post, One ingredient, ten products: Incroquat BTMS-50 in an emulsified scrub, Febe asks: Love the recipe. I am concerned about Phenonip and the parabens. As I see the INCI Phenonip is Phenoxyethanol (and) Methylparaben (and) Ethylparaben (and) Butylparaben (and) Propylparaben. It has parabens and I am trying to stay away from them. I see others in the blog mention Optiphen. Do you think that is an alternative to Phenonip" Thanks in advance for your comments.
I love love love emulsified scrubs, and it sounds like you do, too! Although they don't contain water, they will be exposed to water, which means we have to use a preservative. But which kind"
There's a debate in our community as to which kind of preservative we should use in our products - oil soluble or water soluble - and I'll summarize it a bit here, then encourage everyone who's interested to check out the longer post for more information. The gist of it is that using an oil soluble only preservative means the preservative will be locked away in the oils of the scrub and won't be available when water is introduced. This means we should use a water soluble preservative. It's suggested to include an emulsifier in the scrub regardless of the type of preservative you're using to ensure it is available when the time comes for it to act on its preserving power! I use something like liquid Germall Plus or Phenonip as they have water and oil soluble properties.
What about Optiphen" Yes,...
