Preservatives

Hi i have a question. Can anyone help me figure out how i can add liquid germall to my conditioner bar? I have been going crazy in getting the temperature low enough to add but at the same time it’s too low that it solidifies already

From what I understand, Liquid Germall Plus needs to be added when the temp is 122F/50C or below.....

I don't make conditioner bars, and I don't know if this helps at all, but I was just looking at some conditioner bar recipes over at HumbleBee and Me, who uses Liquid Germall Plus in her conditioner bars. She adds the Germall to her water phase ingredients, and when her oil phase ingredients are melted and cooled down enough to just start forming opacified wisps, she quickly mixes in her liquid phase ingredients/Liquid Germall Plus and then pours: https://www.humblebeeandme.com/orange-blast-solid-conditioner-bar/

Hopefully, more folks will chime in soon!

Are you open to other preservatives? I use phenonip for my bars/scrubs, because you can add it at higher temps.
