Not really sure. Turpentine is antimicrobial and antifungal and may be sufficient to preserve the Vitamin E. But since turpentine is not water miscible, you can't add CS. One possibility to insure a long shelf life could be to add a small amount of oregano or rosemary essential oil to the mix.

Is it something that has to be made up each time or can one make up a small bottle and then keep it refrigerated? Thanks.
