Solubilizer
Polysorbate 20 is a gentle, nonionic solubilizer commonly used to blend essential oils, fragrances, and other oil-based ingredients into water-based formulations such as gels, washes, serums, and toners. By reducing oil molecules to a smaller size, it allows them to disperse evenly without causing cloudiness. This makes it especially valuable in creating clear cosmetic products with stable scent or active incorporation.

How to Use
Combine Polysorbate 20 with fragrances or oils in a separate container before adding to your formulation. A good starting ratio is 1:1 (solubilizer to oil), though some oils may require more solubilizer for full clarity. Usage levels typically range from 0.5%–3%, depending on the formulation and oil load. To test, mix the blend with water—if it stays clear, the ratio is correct; if cloudy, increase the solubilizer ratio.
