Leucidal Liquid Radish Root Natural Alternative to Synthetic Preservatives for Natural and Organic Cosmetics
Add to your own DIY lotions, soaps, or shampoos for longer-lasting beauty products.
Radish Root is a natural alternative to synthetic preservatives, which utilize radishes fermented with a lactic acid bacteria called Leuconostoc kimchii. Our safe, natural formula is approved by ECO-CERT for use with certified organic cosmetics.
Leucidal Liquid is a chemical-free, non-synthetic, mild, water-soluble preservative and may not fully protect against all contaminants. For best results with water-based products, use a stronger preservative such as Leucidal Complete, Leucidal SF Max, or combine with Geogard 221, Linatural, or other broad-spectrum to properly protect your formula.
HOW IT WORKS:
- Start with a 4.0% leucidal liquid concentration
- Monitor the interaction of Leucidal Liquid with other ingredients for compatibility.
- Incorporate into formulations at a ph between 3 and 8, during the cooling phase at temperatures lower than 70°c
- Complete recommended stability and challenge testing to ensure adequate preservation
Leucidal Liquid has been used for almost a decade and is proven to be a highly compatible ingredient for formulating, and is on the whole foods premium list of accepted preservatives.
Store your Leucidal Liquid at room temperature. Cold temps will cause Liquid to crystalize. Simply place it in a warm place, and your product will return to its proper consistency.
We always recommend that every formula undergoes stability and challenge testing to ensure adequate preservation.
