Great stuff, works really well to emulsify essential oils & you need a fraction of what’s required to emulsify with polysorbate-20!
I've used this as a replacement for Poly 80 in bath bombs and it works beautifully. As far as a replacement in spray, despite using the recommended %, and mixing with oil directly and then with water, the oils have separated. More testing is needed on my part to determine an appropriate recipe.
It was good, helpful. Loved it. My rating is 5.
I love working with this solubilizer as it is eco-certified. It works really well for emulsifying oils and water.
