Staff Answer You can use Cocamidopropyl Betaine or omit this completely.

Staff Answer The Prop 65 Warning is if you were to inhale the pumice powder so a mask is recommended when making. Once the powder is mixed into the scrub, it no longer poses a possible health risk. If you wanted to substitute this product you can use sugar, apricot kernel seeds, walnut seed powder, soy scrub - anything that would be a slightly harder scrub to work on greasy hands.

Staff Answer Yes, you can use the super fine pumice in this recipe. We would recommend using the same amount to start. If you feel you want a thicker product, then you can add more of the super fine pumice.

Staff Answer You are correct - if using a fragrance without vanilla, the color stabilizer is NOT necessary. You also do not need to adjust the recipe if removing this ingredient.

Staff Answer This scrub is mild enough to be used daily.

Staff Answer You can also use Preservative-Water soluble PF at 0.1-0.5% which would be 0.03 oz.-0.17 oz.
