Did you know that we have between 10 to 20 million receptors cells just for smell?
The profound effects of Aromatherapy thru the olfactory neurons, remain to be responsible for the perceptible changes in brainwaves. Upon inhalation, impulses to many areas of our brain, triggers memories and different emotional responses, and are able to distinguish over 100,000 different odors. The extensive scientific studies on Essential Oils continues to validate the measurable benefits, from immunity and infectious illness, to  Alzheimer's and Dementia, to wound healing and pain relief, to sleep, mood and cognitive effects, and many more.
The use of Organic therapeutic-grade Essential oils can produce quick and significant results and complement other therapies being used.  These formulas have been properly blended and safe for use as Pulse Point (P.P.A) or Direct Inhalation Aromatherapy (D.I.A).  
Make sure to inhale the aroma deeply, which in turn stimulates the pituitary gland to release chemical endorphins, and sending messages into the brain. Essential Oils unique small molecular structure, allows them to penetrate the epidermis, delivering them directly into the bloodstream, without causing injury or inflammation and creating great therapeutic benefits.
Even though, Essential Oils have been used for thousand of years for many treatments, and they have been thru controlled clinical research and trials,  it is NOT a replacement for medical treatment and No medical claims are being made as to the medicinal value of each formula. The FDA has not evaluated the statements on this website. The information presented here is for educational purposes and not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any diseases.



PULSE POINT AROMATHERAPY (PPA)


Apply to all pulse points, including the Occipital region (back, low area of the skull by the neck), and bottom of the feet and lightly rub in.


PPA  is a form of Holistic alternative treatment using a single note or a synergy of well selected Organic Essential Oils, to balance, harmonize, restore and enhance your emotional well-being. Essential Oils have been therapeutically used for over 6,000 years, and are known for their delicate and small molecular chemical structure. They penetrate the cell wall and transport oxygen and nutrients into the blood stream. Pulse Point Aromatherapy (PPA) can deliver rapid results physically and emotionally. Each synergy has been carefully created with a specific purpose and properly diluted with a carrier oil, making it safe to used directly on the skin. Essential Oils are very powerful and pure plant extracts and have the capability of being harmful if not properly used or diluted when used on the skin.

Pay careful attention if you are pregnant, planning to get pregnant, or breast feeding. As a general rule Lavender, Geranium, Rose, Chamomile and some citrus oils are safe to use, but it is critical you do research and check for contraindications before using any form of essential oil.
If in doubt, check the charts at the end of this article.


How does Pulse Point or Inhalation Aromatherapy work? 
Applying Aromatherapy oils to your pulse points, enhances the absorption and efficiency of the blend, by penetrating into the bloodstream and affecting the olfactory receptors. Inhalation works in a similar manner by also stimulating the olfactory nerves, but without the oil. 


Were and how do I locate my Pulse points? 

With Aromatherapy, the pulse points are areas where the oil is applied to, like the temples, wrist, inside and outer side of the ankles, the breast bone, the base of the skull, back of the earlobes, inside and outer side of the elbows and sometimes the small of your back for that special occasion. You can  follow the chart above to give you a little hint. One drop (or roll) goes a long ways and can be reapplied as needed. Our blends come in a roll-on bottle already diluted with a carrier oil and safe for skin application.




DIRECT INHALATION AROMATHERAPY (DIA)


Recipes are the same as Pulse Point but the oils are pure and undiluted.


The use of a “Nasal Inhaler” is another rapid, and affective way to deliver the benefits of Essential Oils. It helps with the physical and emotional states, but has no direct contact with the skin. These Oils are pure and undiluted and can be a single note or a synergy of benefits. Inhale deeply and slowly three to five times, hold to the count of 3 after each breath, and exhale. Repeat thru out the day. If you are pregnant and in doubt, this is a safer way to enjoy Aromatherapy rather that direct skin contact, but you should still research which oils could be dangerous. If in doubt, please research and you are welcome to look at our chart at the end of this page. Our delivery system of DIA, is with the use of these “Metal Aromatherapy Bullets”. They have been crated to be used with 100% pure undiluted essential oils. Never use pure essential oils in a plastic tube, unless it has been properly diluted with a carrier oil. Essential Oils will eventually eat or dissolve plastic, therefore, unawarely allowing you to inhale toxic waste from the plastic.




The Vessel 



$5.50


Create your own single note or a synergy of your favorite Essential Oils. Please try using Organic.


1.-Elegant Outer Metal Pink Bullet Shell
2.-Cap with holes to safely allow the delivery of the aroma.
3.-The glass vial to protect the oil. No dangerous plastics.
4.-100% organic cotton wick to 

use inside the glass vial and for the absorption of the essential oil to avoid spillage.
5.- Sealing Cap

Loading your bullet
1.-First and foremost, use 100% pure and Organic Essential Oils, free of pesticides & harmful chemicals. You are worth it! The Inhalation Bullet does not require you to dilute the essential oil.
2.-Unscrew the glass vial and add 10 to 15 drops directly into the glass vial. Use a single oil (like Lavender) or a synergy (more than one). Do not overfill, a small amount goes a long ways.
3.-Carefully insert the cotton wick into the glass vial and allow it to absorb the oil.
4.- Place the cap on, and gently roll the container between your hands, to allow the oil to disperse thru the cotton wick.
5.- Open the cap, hold it about 3” from your nose and inhale. Breath deeply and slowly, hold to 3 and exhale. Your brain will thank you.




Aromatherapy Diffusers 


See our large diffuser package for $48.25
https://www.etsy.com/listing/186389943/soap-stone-diffuser-package-large-or?



or our smaller package for $39.95




Using a cold-air diffuser, or tea light diffuser is an easy and safe way even during pregnancy, to deliver the benefits of Aromatherapy thru inhalation, which have a response in our sensory nervous system, by releasing chemical endorphins and causing physical and emotional reactions. Using a clay, or glass tea light diffuser is simple and everyone gets the benefits. Light the tea light and place it underneath in the bottom part of the diffuser. In the upper reservoir, fill with water and several drops of your favorite essential oil. Never leave the container unattended and make sure to clean the bowl after each use. Try using only undiluted Essential Oils and keep an eye on your reservoir, so it doesn't dry-up. Just add a little more water if the tea light is still lit. Once it has extinguished, allow it to cool completely before cleaning it and getting it ready for your next Aromatherapy experience. 




 NATURAL ROOM SPRAY



4 oz room spray (diluted) $9.25
8 oz room spray (diluted)$13.75



Using a natural “Room Spray”, is yet another refreshing way to enjoy the aroma of Organic Essential Oils, which help kill airborne bacteria and stimulate the senses, without all the nasty chemical and toxic store bought sprays. When using one of our room spray, simply spray 2 to 3 times in the center of the room and enjoy. They are highly concentrated and you do not need much to make a statement. Keep away from your eyes, children, pets and from spraying furniture. Some of the commercial air fresheners like F**eb*eze, will make you toxic, but they don't tell you that, do they. Sorry but I truly do not want to breath something I can't even read in their ingredient list like: Benzisothiazolinone, Sodium Polyacrylate, Cyclodextrin,??????
These are only a few to mention. If you are feeling adventurous, there is 100's of recipes on the web, that teach you how to make your own by mixing some spring water, Vodka and essential oils. My formula is a little different and has other natural ingredients to fight stubborn odors like, kitty boxes, pet smells, cigarette smoke, fish, and the list goes on. Remember that Essential Oils are also highly antibacterial, so by using them in your sprays, you are killing 2 birds with one stone. That being said, it's not only the sprays that can keep your home bug free, but the simple inhaling of the aroma can help keep you safe.


Some of our names & formulations have been Copy Righted © since 1989. In addition, not all ingredients have been listed on any of these blends, nor are in order of quantities, top, middle or base notes. Some of these formulas can have up to 40 different essential oils and has taken years to achieve the final product. If anyone decides to copy a blend based on what you see here, you do at your own risk, you assume full responsibility and you understand that we are not to be held accountable for the outcome.

TIPS

  • Please, dilute your oils accordingly, for your safety. 
  • Use 1% for children, pregnancy,  facial products  meaning for every 1/2 oz of carrier product use 3 drop of E/O.
  • Use 3% for for body products, some skin care, massage oils, bath salts etc.. meaning 9 to 12 drops per 1/2 oz of carrier product.
  • Use 5 to 7% for more medicinal mixes, and wound healing, and to make Ointments, Salves, Poultices, Compresses etc.. meaning 15 to 20 drops of E/O per 1/2 oz of carrier product.
  • Use the max formulation, only if you know what you want to achieve. Use 1o to 12% of E/O for localized treatments of muscular  and acute localized pain and trauma, meaning 30 to 35 drops per 1/2 oz of carrier product.  First and foremost, consult your physician.  
  • Always use tinted glass to save your formulas, never plastic. Essential oils should NEVER be on a clear or plastic bottle. If someone is trying to sell you this and claim is pure,... please walk away and find another source.
  • Always use a clean sterilized dropper to get the oils out of the bottle, or use the dropper the bottle already comes with.
  • Never double dip your glass dropper from one oil to the next, this will create contamination and it will change the chemistry of your oil.

Granny’s tips: Here’s a few folk medicine ideas that probably your granny did to you when you were little. These are not limited to only children, I have benefited myself greatly with these recipes. Rule #1:


  • Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate, I just cant say this enough. Did I mention hydrate?
  • Chicken soup?? Yes...absolutely, it’s full of nutrients that the body has lost and you need to replenish them. Vegan or Vegetarian?? Thai soups are excellent in this case, they mostly contain veggie broth, Lemongrass, Ginger, Garlic, Galangal and coconut milk, all things your body will thank you for. Loaded up with Kale for an extra nutritious kick. 
  • Slice an Onion, place on the bottom of each foot, cover with socks and leave on overnight. Yes you will have a stinky room, but you or the child are more important, the smell will go away once you remove them. For twice the luck, soak the socks in a 50/50 of water and vinegar, ring them out and put on feet (on top of onion slices). 
  • Use a 50/50 of cool water and White Vinegar, for a cooling compress on the stomach, neck,  forehead and bottom of feet. This is great for fevers.
  • Use the RUB'a'Dub-Dub Kiddy's Chest Rub  or the adult version for a soothing chest, back and foot rub.

Deodorizing with Baking Soda and Essential Oils

I love making a baking soda shake for the rugs and carpets in the house. Not only to deodorize and refresh, but as a flea control if you have pets.




What you will need:

2 lg. glass Jars (recycled Mayonnaise jars work wonderful)
1 spice shaker of cheese shaker (or make your own by drilling holes on the jar lid)
2 cups of Baking Soda
1/4 cup Cellulose Fiber
6 drops of Litsea Cubeba (aka May Chang) or Lemon Verbena
6 drops of Peppermint
9 drops of Lemon
9 drops of Rosemary
15 drops of Orange
15 drops of Eucalyptus
15 drops of Lavender







Put the 2 cups of Baking Soda in one of the jars. Or double the recipe.
 
 In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup of Cellulose Fiber with the essential oils using a stick or spoon. 


 Mix well after each oil, so you can get an idea of the final product.






Add this mix to the baking soda in the jar, close the lid and shake well to mix.



Place the jar in a dark place and shake it daily for one week, to make sure the oils disperse properly thru out the baking soda. 

After the week is over, get a clean glass jar, and sift the baking soda into it, leaving the cellulose fiber behind. Keep the cellulose fiber in the first jar and label it for future use, just make sure you add the same Essential Oils if you need to make more.



Now, from your sifted product, place the desire amount into a shaker and use on your carpet. 


There’s all kind of varieties and scents you can create. Lavender,Ylang Ylang and Mandarin for your closets and drawers. Trouble having peaceful dreams? Lavender, Chamomile and Hops for your mattress.  During the holidays, Allspice, Orange, Clove and Cinnamon, any many others, just make sure you are using “Undiluted Organic Essential Oils”, that is the key.
What is Cellulose Fiber? Small, tan nuggets made from corncob. Used as an effective fixative for absorbing oils and fragrances. May be used on Potpourri, sachets, dream pillows etc... 


Other great tips on how to use your mix:

*Add a 1/4 cup to your rinse cycle when doing laundry.


*Add a Tbsp. to the bottom of your trash can.
*Shake on your mattress to refresh and keep unwanted “who knows whats” from it.
*Shake some on the kitty box. Just a bit, about 1 tbsp. is plenty.
*Add about a tsp. to your vacuum bag or canister.
*Put about 1 tbsp in a small Muslin bag a put in your drawers, closets even shoes to get rid of musky smells.

* Add a Tbsp. to 1/2 cup of white Vinegar + 1/2 cup of water + 1 tsp. of dish soap to your garbage disposal and run it while the water runs for 10 seconds. Gets rid of bad smells.

A little goes a long ways, don’t overdo it. Allow the mix on the carpet or mattress to sit for 20 to 30 minutes and vacuum.

If you are using this as much as I do, you will probably have 2 or 3 jars going with different scents, and the longer the mix sits, the stronger the smell.

If needed, I carry Cellulose fiber. 1/2 pound (2 cups) for $4
The Essential Oils, I will mix whatever fragrance suits you. The prices vary according to the oils used.

Treating Pain with herbs

This formula is to be used strictly, as a topical decoction for pain, muscle spasms in the limbs, abdomen, back and lower back. It work very well for Sciatica, Lumbago, Menstrual Cramping, Stomach, Rheumatism, shoulder pain etc. Can also be applied to the abdominal area or chest area if you are having spasms, including the intestines, lungs, gallbladder, stomach, and for menstrual cramps.
CAUTION: This is NOT intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease, and should not be taken or construed as medical advice. Always consult with your doctor first, do a patch test on the inside part of the elbow and as a general rule, do not use if you are pregnant, receiving Chemotherapy/Radiation, and/or on open wounds.
This formula has been in my family since the late 1800’s that I know off. It helps with pain, muscle spasms, stimulate circulation and reduce inflammation.



Ingredients needed:
2 Tbsp. Corydalis Root
2 Tbsp. Ginger Root
2 Tbsp. Cramp Bark
2 Tbsp. Peppermint
2 Tbsp. Meadowsweet
2 Tbsp. California Poppy
1 Tbsp. Cayenne Pepper (powder is ok)
2 cups of water
2 cup white vinegar


With a mortar and Pestle, bruise the Corydalis Root, Cramp Bark and Ginger root. Bring 1 cup of white vinegar and 1 cup of water to a boil. Add roots, cover and allow to simmer on low for 15 minutes. Add the rest of the water, vinegar bring to a boil and remove from the stove. Add the remaining herbs, cover with lid, and let them steep for 10 more minutes. Strain and allow it to cool until it’s comfortable to the touch. Soak a washcloth in the mixture and wring it out. Place it in the area (example Low back) where you have the pain, cover with a plastic bag and a dry towel and place a heating pad on top. This will help the herb penetrate faster. Relax and let it penetrate for 15 to 20 minutes. Follow with our Analgesic Salve.





Why the vinegar? Vinegar enhances the ability of the herbs, to break down stagnant blood.

MAKE A WISH

Make a Wish Cinnamon Ornaments:

I remember over 100 years ago (lol), making these with my cousins before Yule. My granny's recipe, called for just a wee bit more ingredients than most recipes out there.
 Cinnamon Allspice, and cloves are magickal symbols of love, luck, passion, lust, wealth, protection and prosperity.
This is a great project to do with the kids, or just a lovely craft to do with your friends on a cold day, over some warm spiked apple cider or Gingerbread Martinis and lots of giggles.
I add essential oils to my recipe, so I must warn you, to please put gloves when you are ready to add the oils, because they are very strong and can cause a burning sensation on your skin. Of course, if you are doing this with the little ones, please omit this step all together. These ornaments are strictly for decoration, and they are NOT CONSUMABLE.
Make a Wish ornaments can be used all over your house, and also to make a wish during ritual. Crumble one into your cauldron when burning incense for a prosperity or wealth spell or simply make a wish.  I put them on my holiday tree, in the closets, hung them by the windows at different levels, add them to your potpourri, add to your wreaths and other crafts, add one to your gift packages, decorate a bow, etc.....
I love adding them to my Yule Log, and when we burn it on winter solstice, you can smell the lovely spices, which adds even more warmth to your celebrations. We always make wishes of good health, peace, abundance, and happiness.


Your house will smell absolutely delicious and festive. 


What you will need:

1 1/2 cup Ground Cinnamon 
1 cup Unsweetened applesauce 
1/4 cup freshly ground cloves 
1/4 cup freshly ground allspice 
1 straw to make holes or a chopstick (optional)
1 pair disposable gloves
thin color ribbon, twine or raffia (your color choice)
20 drops of Organic Cinnamon Bark Essential Oil (optional)
20 drops of Organic Clove Essential Oil (optional) 
or you can add 40 to 60 drops of Cinnamon Sticks Fragrance 
Rolling pin 
Cookie cutters 




 I like grinding my own cloves and allspice, cause it smells so good.


Preparation:


In a large bowl, mix all your ingredients together except the fragrance or essential oil. Mix well with your hands, till you get the consistency of cookie dough. 



Put gloves on and add the fragrance or essential oils and mix in. If it feels to wet and it's sticking to your hands, add more cinnamon,.. if to dry and you see cracks, add a little more apple sauce.



Spread some dry cinnamon powder on your counter and spread or roll out your dough to about 1/4" thick.



Using the cookie cutters, cut your shapes. Keep doing this until you have used every bit of your dough. With the straw, or a chop stick make a hole at one end of your cut-out shapes, this will be to put ribbon thru, so you can hung them.  Sometimes it's a little easier to make the hole while the cutter is still in place, for more support. 


Whatever little bits you may have left, roll them into tiny balls and coat them with the remaining cinnamon powder on your counter top. Bake them with your other shapes, and you can use these like incense or toss them in your fireplace for good luck.



Place them on a drying rack (in a warm place) and allow them to dry for at least 3 days. Test them and make sure they are nice and dry. Now you can loop your ribbon, raffia, yarn or even twine, and start decorating till your hearts content, or put them in cellophane bags to give as gifts.
A second option for drying them, is to put them in a preheated oven at 200ยบ for about 1 hr. and 15 minutes. Cool completely before adding your ribbon. The reason why I like to air dry them is because they don't shrink or crack as much, but during winter it's better to use the oven method.

Once they have cooled completely, string raffia, or ribbon thru the hole and decorate them as you wish.

Using preservatives in your home-made products

The Truth about NATURAL Preservatives 

in your home-made products
Consumer Beware



When attempting to make creams, lotions & body butters, it is wise to read a little about it. It is so much fun to achieve something that you've made yourself, and to share with your family and friends, but please be safe and smart about it. Do I make my own?? absolutely, some without the preservatives, which I keep refrigerated and the ones I sell, that have the appropriate preservatives for your safety.
I have seen so many Youtube videos and recipes that are being passed around FB, that are truly spine chilling. Sometimes I will comment, and sometimes I feel like it's a lost battle and not my place to do so. 
Some of these recipes seam to be wonderful and yummy, but please know, that if you don't use some kind of preservative or keep it refrigerated for the life of the lotion, (which is not long) it will grow harmful bacteria, mold, yeast and fungi over a short time frame. 
Using a contaminated product, could cause severe health problems, even blindness. 




Any recipe that contains water, teas, milk, hydrosols or other liquids containing "ONE drop" of water, must be properly preserved to prevent contamination and microbial growth. Contrary to peoples believes, Vitamin "E", Rosemary Oil Extract, and others are "NOT" a natural preservative, they are an antioxidant, that may extend the shelf life of the product by a few days.  Using Essential Oils as preservatives is probably the most natural form of antimicrobials you will find, but these would have to be used in very high levels, which in turn, would not be safe for the skin either. Some of the Essential Oils I like using to bring the percentages of preservatives down, are, clove, eucalyptus, caraway, lemon, rose, rosemary, sage, cinnamon, patchouli, frankincense, lavender, cumin, sandalwood, and thyme. 
Anyone that knows me, knows that I am huge on "NATURAL & ORGANIC" and I don't believe in harmful cancer causing chemicals, but,... there's also other ways to keep it healthy and natural using what mama earth gives us and even like this, you would still have to use some kind of preservative. If not using the preservative, keeping it refrigerated is very helpful and you must use a sterilized scoop or little spoon to get the product out, so the oils in your hands don't contaminate the rest, in other words, NEVER double dip. 
Either way, my point to this article is, that making your own is still a very smart idea, not only because you can save a ton of money, but anything is healthier than the large amount of unhealthy and unsafe, cancer causing chemicals, the large manufacturers use. Same goes for soap.
I know, it sound discouraging, but my intention is only to educate you a little bit so your skin doesn't pay the ugly price.  Also, if you are going to be selling it, make sure you have the correct ratios and percentages added to the recipe, because you don't want ugly mold growing in what you've sold.

If you need a supplier and more instructions on how to achieve a successful product, these are a few places to get started,  “Soap Queen” , “Bramble Berry” and “Mountain Rose Herbs”. If you are looking for any kind of "ORGANIC" herbs in smaller amounts (Also resins) please feel free to contact me at: http://www.themagickwizard.com
There are 1000's if not more, of reliable sources and websites where you could become more knowledgeable and learn different recipes, but please DO NOT neglect learning extensively if you will be “teaching” or selling your products. Remember, baby steps and safety first. Above all, don't be fooled by people posting unsafe instructions on the web or Facebook.  
One of my favorites I found, was about this lady on Youtube (and all over FB), that claimed to be making essential oils in her kitchen, by cutting flowers from her garden and pretty much frying them in Grapeseed oil over her stove. What I think she was trying to achieve, was to "INFUSE" the oils, which is night and day from making an essential oil, and even if that was the case, she had no clue what she was doing. The sad thing is, that thousands of people responded to her, and are buying her products, which (to my understanding) have high levels of bacteria and mold, yet the consumer has no idea, why they have developed onset acne, allergies and other health problems,....hummmm, I wonder why! And why is she not being regulated????
Oh, yes ....please always label and date your products. :)
I can go on, and on but I will stop for now and hope this helps.

Here’s a little more information about those “Natural Preservatives”, that people claim to be natural, if you would like to read up on it. The information below was obtain from different books, websites and also from a web site named Treasure Locks. These only EXTEND the life not PRESERVE.


Alternative Natural Preservative #1- The Truth About Grapefruit Seed Extract 
“Grapefruit Seed Extract (GSE) is an all natural preservative”

There are rumors all over the web that Grapefruit Seed Extract works as a natural preservative. Oh, we wish these were true.  We even considered using it in our products. However, the sad truth is GSE is not an all natural preservative.  GSE is no more natural than parabens. Grapefruit seed extract is not grapefruit juice. It is not simply ground up grapefruit seeds. It is not grapefruit essential oil. Chemical manufacturers take the leftover grapefruit pulp, a waste by-product from grapefruit juice production, and in an intensive, multi-step industrial chemical process, change the natural phenolic compounds into synthetic quaternary ammonium compounds (does this sound natural to you?). Typically, in chemical synthesis of this type, chemical reagents and catalysts are used under extreme high heat and pressure or vacuum. Synthetic ammonium chloride is one of the chemical catalysts used in this process. So, first all, Grapefruit Seed Extract is not “natural”. It’s a chemically altered form of grapefruit seed. If you’re going to call it Grapefruit Seed Extract, you could by the same reasoning call Sodium Laurel Sulfate Coconut Oil Extract. Secondly, studies done on GSE have found that while it may be mildly preserving, it appears to be due to trace contaminants, rather than the GSE itself. A handmade Grapefruit Seed Extract that was not tainted with other chemicals showed zero preservative qualities. Here is one report from the Institute of Pharmacy, Ernst Moritz Arndt University, Greifswald, Germany:

“The antimicrobial efficacy as well as the content of preservative agents of six commercially grapefruit seed extracts were examined. Five of the six extracts showed a high growth-inhibiting activity against the test germs. In all of the antimicrobial active grapefruit seed extracts, the preservative benzethonium chloride was detected by thin layer chromatography. Additionally, three extracts contained the preserving substances triclosan and methyl paraben. In only one of the grapefruit seed extracts tested no preservative agent was found. However, with this extract as well as with several self-made extracts from seed and juiceless pulp of grapefruits (Citrus paradisi), no antimicrobial activity could be detected. Thus, it is concluded that the potent as well as nearly universal antimicrobial activity being attributed to grapefruit seed extract is merely due to the synthetic preservative agents contained within. Natural products with antimicrobial activity do not appear to be present.”


Alternative Natural Preservative #2- Essential Oils
“Essential Oils will work as preservatives”: 

While it is true that some essential oils have antibacterial and anti-fungal properties, the quantity needed to effectively preserve a water containing product would be at unsafe levels. Care needs to be taken when using essential oils.  They can help keep oil based products from going rancid.  But, in water containing products, they're mildly effective, at best.

Alternative Natural Preservative #3- Potassium Sorbate
“Potassium Sorbate is an all-natural preservative”: 

While potassium sorbate can effectively preserve against mold and yeast, it is not useful for protecting from bacteria. It is not at all effective in products with a pH over 6, which most lotions are. While potassium sorbate is found in nature, any available today would have been synthetically made so it is not all-natural. It is also believed to cause contact dermatitis (skin irritation).

Alternative Natural Preservative #4- Vitamins
“Vitamins A, C & E are great for preserving all kind of things and they’re good for you”


Vitamins A, C and E can extend the shelf life of products by preventing oxidation and by slowing the growth of certain bacteria. And, they are good for you. Vitamin E in particular is great for keeping oil from going rancid.  We do use Vitamin E, as a preservative, in our oil based products. But, these vitamins are not effective as broad-spectrum preservatives and cannot replace other preservatives in all products.  Think about this. Orange juice is loaded with Vitamin C. But, would you want to drink a glass that was left in your bathroom for a couple of months?
