Purpose of Preservatives and Antioxidants

• Geogard Ultra – a natural, ECOCERT-approved preservative

• Phenoxyethanol – a gentle, broad-spectrum preservative for creams and gels

• Potassium Sorbate – ideal for baby care, soap, and sanitizing products

Antioxidants protect oils and actives from oxidative degradation:

• Tocopherol (Vitamin E) – stabilizes oils and fats

• Ascorbyl Palmitate – a fat-soluble form of Vitamin C

• Rosemary Extract – a natural antioxidant with antimicrobial properties
