Aromatics International Solubol Dispersant Emulsifier 1 fl oz – Natural Solubilizer for Essential Oils, and Water-Based Blends 30 mL

I'm not a chem lab, so I'm not sure how exactly I can review this product for effectiveness. Looking at the ingredients, it looks like there are some that reduce viscosity or surface tension, and others that provide nucleation or aid small droplet formation. At least, that's what I think the fairly common ingredients do. As I say, the ingredients are fairly common, and intuitively they should work as dispersant for mist.The liquid has very little smell. I detect mostly the smell of the sunflower oil that smells like typical cooking oil and would likely not materially affect the scent of other essential oils or fragrances.All I can really review, however, are what I think is the value. I think since this does help increase the effective distribution of other, perhaps more expensive fragrances, oils, or other ingredients, they do represent a potential savings. Conversely, it is $18/oz which is more than many essential oils cost in the first place. Even if it doubled the effectiveness of essential oils to provide fragrance or other benefits, it seems like it would only increase costs vs just buying more essential oils. I suppose with very expensive oils, that might produce a different value result.I tested it in my humidifier with the essential oil distributor. I didn't detect any significant difference, but that's very subjective. So, I'd say for someone using expensive essential oils, particularly for a business, this may be the right thing for you. For home use, it doesn't meet my value needs.

This is the magic ingredient to preparing my own oil-based bug deterrent and plant pest control spray at the concentration I find effective and on the cheap. For my use, this will save a few dozen dollars at the very least over the growing season compared to buying highly diluted solutions and paying for 97% water in a reusable but never reused spray bottle. Gave this a try with cloves, cedar and mint oils and I made the solution much more fragrant than anything I could buy. Oils stay neatly in suspension for days, and shaking the bottle for a few seconds makes the solution perfectly homogeneous. Why did I wait for so long to make my own fragrant oil solutions?One word of caution, though: as soon as I read the formula for this emulsifier, I zeroed in on the citric acid: if mixed with anything that contains Sodium Benzoate (a preservative) the resulting solution will contain benzene, a carcinogen. Many essential oils do not list additives, and many state to be either pure or a mix of oils and nothing else. But some do list additives, and especially oils already mixed in cosmetics most of the times do. So, just make sure the combination is safe before proceeding to emulsify using this.

I've been searching for a reasonably priced and effective emulsifier for the pillow sprays I make using essential oils. I do not practice "Aroma Therapy", I just like the way they smell, so I make pillow sprays and air sprays. In the past I've just combined the oils with water and shaken the spray bottle like crazy just before spraying. That works but isn't the greatest when I am giving my home made product as a gift.I saw this and decided to give it a try.I took a look at ingredients and noted that it contains Coconut and Rosemary extract. Neither gave the product any scent of its own, and I am presuming that they are included along with Vit E as natural preservatives. I wish the videos were more about the ingredients in the product and how to use the product that about the company. Making essential oil based products is a science and I am more interested in what is in a product and how it works an is used than sales hype.No need to modify any measurements for products you already make. Just add 1 drop of Aromatics International Solubol Dispersant Emulsifier for every 4 drops of essential oil in your recipe. I used a clean glass dropper from my own supplies. I think a dropper should have been included with the bottle. I use sterile distilled or reverse osmosis water as my base.Give the whole thing a shake and good to go. Adding Solubol did make my product more cloudy but I bottle it in colored glass spray jars so that isn't noticeable.If you are making your own essential oil based sprays for your own use, gifts, or as a small hobby business this is definitely a magic solution to the challenge of separation.

One star review: Thank goodness I read the back label first before opening. This solution has ingredients on the label not mentioned by the seller I am deadly allergic too. I could have died. Please refund me my money immediately and update your page. Amazon has been wonderful advocating. Three star review: Update: the seller reached out and refunded me my money. I recommend this seller because they had compassion and understanding towards their customers. Seller is updating photographs of product to contain all ingredients. Great customer service.

Okay so, I saw emulsifier and I thought it was the foaming agent for body care products. It seems like that is NOT the case, after reading the bottle - this product is used to evenly disperse essential oils throughout water-based products... not sure whether it works with fragrance oils, or if it would be needed with fragrance oils. Anywho, I like to make my own room fresheners so this is actually great! The product I never even knew that I needed.

I watched a YouTube video about how to make essential oils dissolve and mix into water, and they recommend this chemical. I like to create spritzers that I can spray as a light air freshener. I followed the instructions in the product video and it gave me the expected result. Very happy with this product.

Bad product seller took money then never shipped
