what is the shelf life of a homemade body scrub? what preservatives do you recommend?

Answer 1

if i were you i'd just keep a tub of aqueous cream and a monster sized packet of salt with a poury lid by the shower. simply put a blob in the lid, then pour salt on it, mix a bit with your fingers, and use. that way the salt doesnt dissolve into the cream, and you can just use the sell by date on the tub, as salt doesnt go off.

Answer 2

salt is the best body scrub and it has no shelf life

Answer 3

Why do you have to make a scrub at home? Isn't it available everywhere and pretty cheap too?
