How much vitamin E for body butter?

PuddinAndPeanuts · Aug 11, 2014

Hi all! I'm thinking of adding vitamin e to my body butter for label appeal and to extend the shelf life even more. How much would you add to 8 cups of oils/butters?

Thanks!

i usually added around 0.5-1%

Yeah I was going to say 1%

Should T-50 be ok, or do I need to spring for the more expensive T-90? (for keeping the oils/butters from going rancid)

Thanks!

Which vitamin E should I use? T-50 or T-90? Also, do effective usage rates differ between them?

Thank you!

T50 has 50% veg oil and T90 10% so I would go by price - taking into account that you would use approximately half as much T90 as T50.

I find T50 pretty thick so I would imagine T90 is even thicker (for me that is another reason to get T50).

Aloha, Aline
