Hello Mihaela, The shelf life of a finished product based on oils and butters, i.e. the effectiveness of vitamin E, depends largely on the butters and oils used. Due to the refined almond oil, the removal of vitamin E will have little effect on shelf life.

Hi, if I don't use vitamin E, I am missing it at the moment, what is the expiration date?

Hello, As this cleanser is a creamy balm, it is especially recommended for dry or normal skin. Yes, you can replace the almond oil with jojoba oil. All the best!

Hello Cornelia, In this recipe it is not possible to replace Olliva emulsifier with Bella, because Olliva emulsifier is self-emulsifying and is also suitable for making oil-free creams. Bella emulsifier, on the other hand, is suitable for making O/W (oil in water) emulsions. Have a sunny day!
