Geogard 221 is a reliable and easy-to-use preservative for my facial wash formulation. It blends well without altering the scent or texture of the product. I appreciate that it’s a broad-spectrum, eco-certified preservative — perfect for natural skincare formulations. It gives me peace of mind knowing my product stays safe, stable, and free from microbial growth, while still being gentle on the skin. Highly recommended for anyone making natural or small-batch skincare products.
