Depending on the amount of product you may need two or three. You usually can find vitamin E lots cheaper at places like the Dollar Zone or Everythings a Dollar. You can also check with Family Dollar and Dollar General depending where you live.

You just have to research them a bit to determine the correct one to use for your product (they are NOT interchangable!) and the correct amount. Make sure not to use too much, as that causes skin tingling and numbness! RE: Preserving Homemade Masks and Creams Post by Suzanne S.

All other items should be stored in a cool, dark place. For items such as masks, creams, etc. consider making only small amounts on a weekly or bi-weekly basis in order to be sure that they don't spoil.
