Description

Polysorbate 20 is the go-to solubilizer for blending fragrance and essential oils into water-based products like body sprays, body lotion, body wash, liquid soap, and shampoo. It prevents separation, ensuring a smooth and stable formula with a professional-quality finish. An essential ingredient for any maker working with water-based formulations!

Some key features include:

  • Water-Soluble Emulsifier:  Helps oil-based ingredients dissolve in water-based formulas.
  • Enhances Stability: Prevents separation for consistent, long-lasting formulations
  • Lightweight & Non-Greasy: Maintains a clean feel without adding heaviness to formulations.

Attention: We recommend testing a small batch before making larger quantities to ensure the desired results. This allows you to adjust fragrance, color, and other ingredients as needed.

 

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Determine the amount needed – Start with a 1:1 ratio of Polysorbate 20 to fragrance or essential oil.
  • Pre-mix before adding to water – Blend Polysorbate 20 with your oil-based ingredients first.
  • Incorporate into your formulation – Slowly mix the pre-blended solution into your water-based product, stirring well.
  • Adjust if needed – If the mixture appears cloudy or separates, increase the Polysorbate 20 amount gradually (up to a 1:4 ratio).
  • Test before full production – Always make a small batch to ensure stability and desired results.
