This is in response to chithra regunathan's question: Want to know if we have to add some preservatives -- Personally, I never add any preservatives. Whatever cream I make, I store them in the refrigerator and if I have an open jar which I use, it lasts me up to 3 month un-refrigerated so no, you do not have to add preservatives unless this is what you want to do. | |

I've read that Vitamin E and Rosemary Oil are natural anti-bacterials. | |

You can also use Grapeseed Oil as a natural preservative. And Vitamin E also helps to extend the shelf life of creams. | |
