to much preservative ?

[PippiL]

I make my own face cream and used Germall liquid for the first time and think I overdid it ???
The amounts are so small, figured out the amount in grams etc.
When it comes to math, I'm a complete IDIOT and my husband was not around :shock: .
If I used to much, what is the danger? Will my face come off?
Jojoba oil is so expensive, I don't want to toss it in the garbage,it's like
gold right now.

If it were me PippiL, I'd use some on an inconspicuous place on my body, perhaps the inside of your elbow and see what kinds of reactions may occur. If nothing occurs, then try a little under your chin? or on your neck, somewhere that you can get it off quickly should something occur.

Good luck, and yep, Jojoba is like gold so I hope you can still use your product

I've gone a gram or two over by mistake before and have still used my lotions and they've been fine but I agree with the testing

I used my cream and my face is still intact .
I think I will get myself a special scale for those little numbers.
Thanks for your input.

I would make a 2nd batch with less preservative than you need & combine the 2.

that is a very good idea, thanks
