Disclaimer; I am not a cosmetic chemist. I am self taught. All information about these preservatives comes from the supplier I linked to who sells it (included in the instant digital download). Information for preservatives can vary from supplier to supplier. Due to this I recommend, after choosing the preservative from my cheat sheet, double check with your supplier to make sure your suppliers info is the same as what's on the cheat sheet. If not, you can make adjustments to your cheat sheet to match the information you get your preservative from.
