INCI:
Polysorbate 20 Description: This product is a Sorbaitan Monolaurate (Polysorbates) that has been ethoxylated with approximately 20 moles of ethlene oxide to produce a water soluble, oil and water emulsifyer. Solubiliser can also be used as a wetting agent, viscosity modifier, anti-stat, stabilizer and dispersing agent. It is the final ingredient necessary when combining fragrance oil with water-based products like baby shampoo because of very low eye irritation, body wash, toiletries, cosmetics and ointments.
It is perfect for keeping the product clear and uncloudy & prevents any separation of the oils or fragrance. Mix 1 part essential oil or fragrance to 1 part solubiliser, blend, and then add to your product and it will retain its glass like clarity.
Shelf Life:Good for up to one year from date of manufacturing.
Please Note: As with any manufacturing process, New Directions Aromatics encourages small, lab scale manufacturing for evaluation purposes prior to full commercial manufacturing.

I used this to mix evenly with fragrance oil before adding to liquid soap. NIGHT and DAY - without this the fragrance clumped and jelled, but with it I had great results. MUST have whether adding fragrance to lotion, liquid soap, or linen sprays made with water and alcohol.
