As the saying goes, oil and water do not mix. No matter how well you shake, stir, or blend a water-based preparation, the oils will separate from the base.

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 emulsifier.

Polysorbate 20 is a polysorbate surfactant whose stability and relative non-toxicity allows it to be used as a detergent and emulsifier in a number of domestic, scientific, and pharmacological applications.

Solubilizer 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 un-cloudy & prevents any separation of the oils or fragrance.

Mix 1 part essential oil or fragrance up to 1 part Solubilizer, blend, and then add to your product and it will retain its glass-like clarity.

Shelf Life: Solubilizer has a shelf-life of up to one year from date of packaging.
