PRESERVATIVES
Here at Shay and Company we have done our best to bring in a small mixture of different preservatives that you can use in your formulas. All products that contain water should have a preservative system or they will start to grow mold. We are providing these preservatives for you BUT you must do your own formulating and challenge testing for your finished products. Shay and Company holds no liability for the outcome of your products.
ORANGE WAX - VEGAN ALTERNATIVE TO LANOLIN
Orange wax is an excellent vegan alternative to lanolin. You can substitute orange wax on a 1:1 ratio for lanolin. Orange wax is derived from orange peels and works as an emollient in your skincare and body care products. An added benefit to orange wax over lanolin is the naturally occurring phytosterols found in oranges. This imparts excellent anti-oxidant properties into your skincare formulas.

CEDAR FRAGRANCE | SOAP AND CANDLE COMPATIBLE
We now offer both cedar fragrance and cedar essential oil. Both have the woodsy, clean smell of Cedar but the benefit of having both is that you can use them together in a product and have a stronger smell as the result. For example, a cedar candle using just essential oils will require a much higher overall content of essential oils that if you were to blend both the natural cedar fragrance and the cedar essential oil.
TOBACCO BAY LEAF FRAGRANCE | SOAP AND CANDLE COMPATIBLE
Tobacco Bay Leaf is a warm, soothing base scent with a slightly citrus hint. Think right before a rainy night in the PNW forest, wet moss, tea tree, bergamot and mandarin notes.
