What preservatives do you use?
We don't use any! Our products are oil-based and we have selected jojoba oil as our primary carrier oil because of its resistance to rancidity (it is a wax, not an oil). On top of that, we include Vitamin E into our formulations as an antioxidant to extend the shelf life of our products.
Apply salve on body. Like all good things in life, a little goes a long way. Gently reapply as required.
