Product Overview

Polysorbate 20 (also known as TWEEN 20) is a versatile, gentle emulsifier widely used in cosmetics and personal care formulations. This 12 oz bottle of 100% pure, cosmetics-grade Polysorbate 20 is designed for DIY enthusiasts and small-scale manufacturers who want to create stable, luxurious emulsions without harsh chemicals. Whether you're making a soothing lotion, a clarifying shampoo, a creamy body wash, or an effective makeup remover, this emulsifier helps blend oil and water phases into a smooth, uniform product that feels light on the skin.

Key Features and Benefits

  • 100% Pure & Cosmetics Grade: No additives, fillers, or impurities. Ideal for sensitive skin formulations.
  • Gentle on Skin: Known for its mildness, Polysorbate 20 is suitable for daily use in cleansers and moisturizers.
  • Versatile Emulsifier: Effectively combines oils and water, creating stable emulsions for lotions, creams, serums, and cleansers.
  • Enhances Product Texture: Provides a silky, non-greasy feel that absorbs quickly.
  • Solubilizer for Essential Oils: Helps disperse essential oils and fragrances into water-based products like toners and mists.
  • Easy to Use: Liquid form at room temperature, simple to incorporate into cold or hot process formulations.

How to Use

Polysorbate 20 is typically used at 2–10% of your total formula weight, depending on the desired consistency and oil content. For lotions and creams, add it to the oil phase before emulsification. For makeup removers or cleansing oils, mix with oils and then add water gradually. For solubilizing essential oils, blend 1 part essential oil with 2–4 parts Polysorbate 20 before adding to water. Always perform small batch tests to determine the perfect ratio for your recipe.

Who It Is For

This product is ideal for DIY skincare formulators, soap makers, small business owners creating natural cosmetics, and anyone who wants to craft personalized, gentle personal care items. It’s also great for individuals with sensitive skin seeking milder alternatives to commercial products.
