Yes I saw this too! Have you seen anything negative about it? I'm wondering why others aren't using it if it's paraben and formalehyde free? I'll admit I don't understand all of the scientific data very well. So, I still feel like there must be something negative about it's ingredients lol

Do any of you know if this could be used for liquid soap? I can't find much information about it, but it lists it being ok pH to 10. It looks to be formaldehyde and paraben free? I figure there some info I'm missing or else it would be the 'Hot' new item lol

I created a different thread a few weeks ago asking about liquid goat milk soap. A few of you mentioned preservatives being a must. Can any of you explain the process of how to test my soap for yuckies growing even with a preservative ? Do you send to a lab? Is there a kit that Can be ordered...

Thank u! Can anyone explain to me exactly why there is such a need for preservatives with liquid soap vs bar? It's not that I don't believe u..I just like to know 'WHY?' Someone else mentioned that water is added and you don't know what people are going to do with it. But, if soap is made...

I'm just trying to jump this up to see if anyone has some info on my previous question.
