Skin Perfection Leucidal Liquid Complete - Alternative Preservative for Lotion Making with Radish Root Liquid & Coconut Extract - Leucidal Complete Preservative for Cosmetics & Skincare Products 0.5oz

I have been using this as my preservative for 3 years now for my main 2 lotion recipes. I've had no bad batches. I have a friend who also has a small business in body care and she was remorseful of using it, as her lotion molded 2 weeks after making it. However I bleach all of my equipment in a 1/10 including my lotion bottles, and wipe my pump and straw down with rubbing alcohol before filling my bottle and I have never once had that experience. I also wait until my lotion is about 100°f before adding my preservative.

as expected

I just learnt about Leucidal Complete recently and would like to give it a try. This is the smallest size offered, which was perfect for my first trial. I was too excited for my first DIY project that I skipped through the instruction and didn't warm up the bottle. Sent Skin Perfection a question and got the answer early next day. I attempted again and this time it was perfect.I'll definitely get at least a 4oz size next time. It is way cheaper that way. This is the most natural preservative I can try and allows me to work on recipes involves water.

The product was good. I purchased it because I was in a bit of a crunch to get an order out, but it is way over priced for a 4 oz size considering other competitors provide 8x the quantity for the same price. I'd be a regular customer if it was priced accordingly. If time is of the essence, and you have to bite the bullet on cost, this would be the next best option with Amazon's free next day delivery.

Used in homemade skin cream. Excellent preservative. Would buy again.

It really works . I made my own glycerine/ water based serum which is still clear and fresh after a month without keeping it in the refrigerator. This natural preservative really works.

I am no sure if I got a bad batch but it was very chunky I followed the instructions on getting it to be fully liquid but it was very cloudy and never cleared I’m hoping that my product doesn’t spoil I spent a lot of money on all of my ingredients.

Works great for all my DIY projects. I do admit though I use this is combination with other organic/natural preservatives. All in all have not lost any products as of yet. Thanks!!!
