pH Range of Mild Preserve Eco and Comparison with Other Preservatives

Asked by: isthislove On: May 24, 2016 Product Type: Cosmetics

Question

I would like to confirm the suitable pH range for Mild Preserve Eco. The website states it has a wide pH range (4-9), but Phenoxyethanol has an even wider range (3-9). Could you clarify why 4-9 is considered wide, perhaps by comparing it to other preservatives like NaturePreserve and Global Guard?

Answer

Regarding your question about Mild Preserve Eco:

  • The correct pH range for Mild Preserve Eco is indeed 4-9.
  • While Phenoxyethanol has a wider pH range of 3-9, the range of 4-9 for Mild Preserve Eco is considered wide when compared to many other preservatives that have significantly narrower effective pH ranges, such as NaturePreserve (3-6) and Global Guard (2-5.5), as mentioned by the staff.
  • The staff has acknowledged that the information on the website regarding the comparison might be incomplete and will be updated for better clarity.
