Grapefruit Seed Extract is a good short term natural preservative, a secondary preservative will increase your long term protection. I suggest Potassium Sorbate at 0.2% w/w as a suitable alternative. You will need to dissolve this first in your aqueous phase.

Expertise
I can answer most questions concerning the making of handmade soaps. Those which I cannot answer, I am willing to research for you.
Experience
Began making and selling handmade soaps under the name of Earth Soaps in 1994. Have since expanded under the name Good Earth Herbs to 24 different soaps. We do both retail and wholesale business. I also teach two different classes on soapmaking: a basic class and an advanced class.
