As we all know oil and water DON'T mix - without a little help from a friend.
The friend in this case comes from a family of ingredients called solubilisers. These substances help oils, including essential oils to dissolve in water.
You can make all sorts of water based products like room sprays, skin toners, facial mists, hair mists and detanglers as well as making a bath essential oil concentrate.
Bath Essential Oil Concentrate
For example, to make a bath essential oil concentrate to scent your next bathing indulgence just mix:
10 drops of essential oil blend of choice
1 to 1.5 ml of Moon Haven's Solubiliser
Once combined add this to the bath water and swish around.
Room Spray
Mix the following:
10ml (200 drops) of your choice of EOs
20 ml of Solubiliser in a 100 ml spray bottle
Add water to make 100ml
Shake before use. Keep in the fridge and use within 3 weeks
Body Spray
Mix the following:
70 drops of your choice of EOs
7 ml of Solubiliser in a small spray bottle.
Add water to make 50ml.
Shake before use. Keep in fridge - Use within 3 weeks
