    As a professional soapmaker for the past 19 years, I wouldn’t dare sell a product or even give it away w/o a proper preservative system. I was a massage therapist for years and started making my own lotions/creams/oils to use on my clients and that turned into a full blown soaping business. I would never, ever sell anything to anyone w/o insurance. Thank you for touching on this subject so bluntly.

    There’s a lot of debate about the quality of essential oils that say “Do not ingest.” I think it has more to do with lot of companies not wanting to take the risk by not stating that on the label. Because even though natural...they aren’t all safe to ingest. Like wintergreen. And they are so concentrated so they can be toxic if not knowing exactly how much is safe for a specific oil

      I would look for a small business lawyer who specialize in product liability. You may be able to find someone locally to you depending on your area or get a tele-consult on the matter. I would get everything put together, your planned descriptions and name, labels, etc. and have them ready before the consult so you can present everything as is and they can give you feedback on any legal issues. You can also get recommendations on verbiage for any marketing and company presence docs.

      I don’t use a preservative in my sugar scrubs. I make note to the customer to make sure they avoid introducing water into the product and to always dip the product out with a wooden spoon, not their fingers

      Yes! Most people use scrubs in the shower with wet fingers

    Always remember we must repent of our sins (sin is transgression The Law Of Yahuah The Father in Heaven. The Law are The Books: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy). We must repent of our sins and Have Belief On Yahusha The Messiah. HE Died and Rose three days later so that we can be forgiven of our sins!
