Polysorbate is a gentle, non-ionic solubilizer and emulsifier used in home fragrance products to combine oil-based and water-based ingredients. It plays a crucial role in preventing ‘separation’ between fragrance oils and water, ensuring a smooth and consistent blend. This ingredient is especially popular for making room sprays from scratch. It allows fragrance oil to disperse evenly in water-based products like room and linen sprays, creating a stable solution. Without Polysorbate oils would float on top of the water, leading to poor scent throw and clogging issues in spray bottles. Key benefits: - Perfect for room sprays and linen sprays - Ideal for mixing fragrance oils with diffuser bases - Prevents separation of oil and water Usage recommendation: Use Polysorbate in a 1:1 ratio with your fragrance oil. For example, if you use 5% fragrance oil add 5% Polysorbate. Always test in small batches to check stability and clarity!
