Jason2 questions about Emu Oil-S Lipid Replenisher
1. Is it safe to mix ascrobic acid powder in with this product?
2. What is Emu-Oil S' shelf life? I ask because I have some left and was wondering if it was still good.
Thanks~

Dr. PickartYou can mix vitamin E and the Emu Oil S.
If it does not smell rancid, it is OK.

JasonHi Dr. Pickart. Good to know I can mix Vitamin E, but can I also mix Vitamin C?

stoneyHi Jason,
Yes, I think it is okay to mic Vit C Powder(cosmetic grade)with Emu...but, it is best to keep the Vit C about 12 hrs away from CPs since the CPs will cancel out the C. That is why Dr. Pickart prefers to recommend orally taking 1,000 mg of Vit C which help the CP to work more efficiently.
The Vit C is actually KEY to helping CPs work!...

Dr. PickartYou could use it with Emu Oil but I think it is better as a supplement.
Vitamin C is hard to get into the skin except at a very low pH.
