Neem is a Good Natural Preservative for cosmetic base:
The aim is to overcome the broad spectrum of microbes, and at the same time, not to be deleterious to other ingredients. The optimal preservative has the following attributes:
- Broad spectrum activity (bacteriae & fungi)
- Be effective over the anticipated shelf life
- Be preferably liquid and water soluble
- Be effective over a wide pH range
- Not be deactivated by other ingredients
- Be odorless, colorless, and safe
As compared to synthetic preservatives, however, the activity is generally lower and directed to a less broad spectrum of microbes. The preservative effect of most natural agents is primarily based on their antioxidant activity preventing oils and fats to become rancid.
Essential oil Neem seed oil applicable for cosmetic preservative is 1 - 5 %
