Polysorbate 20 - emulsifier, stabilizer
Our emulsifier and stabiliser Polysorbate 20 is produced from coconut oil. It is a non-ionic emulsifier and surfactant in the form of a yellowish, water-soluble liquid. It is used to combine water and oil without the use of alcohols. It dissolves fragrances and blends them with the water phase, and has a soothing effect on the skin. It is used primarily in oil-in-water emulsions such as lotions, balms, creams, shampoos, liquid soaps, body scrubs, etc. It is also used in the production of fabric freshening and scenting sprays.
Polysorbates are typically used in combination with other emulsifiers. Use Polysorbate 20 when excessive lathering in the finished product is not desired.
Here are some guidelines: If you are using 60 ml of distilled water, add 5 drops of essential oil for a face spray, add 20 drops of essential oil for a body mist, add 30 drops for a fabric spray, and add 50 drops for a room spray. You can of course adjust the proportions to suit your own taste and preferences.
