Water Based Products:
When an oil-based ingredient is added to a water-based product the oil (aroma/scent oil) will separate out or float on the top of the water without the presence of an emulsifier.
When making products like linen sprays or body sprays emulsification can be accomplished with Polysorbate 20.
Titrate the Polysorbate at about 1-3% until the product remains clear. (Higher concentrations of oils may require more PS20 to stay in emulsion.)
Oil Based Products:Blend into oil-based products like balms or salves when all oils are in a liquid state to get a homogeneous blend. Allow to return to room temperature.
(A stick blender is recommended for ease of use and quick shearing force.)
Emulsions:
Blending into emulsions in the oil phase is preferred, but can be added to a completely emulsified product with a stick blender for a homogeneous product.
Soap:
Add at "trace" at about the same ratio as Fragrance oils or Essential oils.
