Product Notes
This is a 100% water-free (anhydrous) facial serum.
Because the formulation contains no water, a conventional broad-spectrum preservative is not required. However, good manufacturing practices and keeping water out of the product are important.
Vitamin E is an antioxidant, not a preservative. It helps slow the oxidation of the oils and can help extend their freshness.
For best results, package the serum in a container that minimises exposure to air and light.
