"Hello! Is it necessary to use this for foaming hand soap? Like what is the exact purpose? Will it cause the scent of the EO or FO to last longer after washing? Also, would Poly 80 be a good substitute and if so, how much would I add to a 8 oz bottle of foaming hand soap?"

Click Here To View 1 answer(s)

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer If your foaming hand soap is water based, you would need the FO & EO Modifier to incorporate the fragrance oil. Otherwise, it will likely float or sink to the top. The purpose of the FO & EO Modifier is to alter the fragrance oil to incorporate into water based products. Poly 80 would not be a good substitute as this is also oil based.

Staff Answer You would not need Polysorbate 20 if you are using the FO & EO Modifier. If your fragrance has vanilla in you would still need to use a stabilizer to keep it from browning.

"Do I have to add this to a body wash if I'm using an eo and fo blend?"

Click Here To View 1 answer(s)

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer Yes you do. Since the body wash is water-soluble, the fragrance will separate from the base. Once in a while, you may find a fragrance that will mix but it is not very often. You can also use Poly 20 but this can cloud the end product. The FO & EO Modifier will stay clear with most fragrances. You can add our water soluble fragrances, in which case, you would not need a modifier. https://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/fragrance-oils/water-soluble.aspx

"If I am using the 4 to 1 ratio to use the Modifier.... does it actually delude the scent of the original EO or FO? Example: 8 Oz of Shower Gel.... I use 5% F.O. which is .4 oz. Using your 4 to 1 that would be 1.6oz of Modifier with .4 oz of FO Would the Scent still be the same or is the scent weaker? "

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer We do recommend using 1-2% max for fragrance oil. More than this will thin out the shower gel. If adding 2%, this would equal 5 mls. Mixing with 20 mls of EO/FO Modifier, you would take out 5 mls of this modified fragrance and add to your shower gel. You do not want to add the entire mixture to the base because this will greatly thin out the product. The fragrance will not be too weak.

"I typically use 4% FO in body spray. I am interested in trying the modifier but concerned about my spray being diluted if I am only using 4% of the dilution. This brings my total pure FO concentration down to 0.8% if I modify the FO first, then add 4% of it. Is the safe usage rate of the modifier high enough to keep my FO at 4% and add the additional modifier needed to solubilize it (16% if sticking with 1:4 ratio), that way I still have the same scent strength in the end product? "

Click Here To View 3 answer(s)

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer If you are making 16 oz. of body splash, 4% fragrance would equal .50 oz. You can either mix .50 fragrance with 2 oz. modifier. Then take the 4% or .50 oz. from this mixture. Or, you can take .10 oz. of fragrance and mix with .40 oz. of modifier. This entire amount can be added to the body spray. You can also mix the fragrance with Polysorbate 20 at a 1:1 ratio. This would let you increase the fragrance to .25 oz. and add .25 oz. poly 20. This may cloud your end product, though.

Thank you for the answer. What I was asking though, is if the modifier has a safe usage rate to accommodate keeping the unmodified pure Fragrance Oil at 4%, then solubilize it with the modifier, rather than using a 4% modified FO (which would be significantly diluted unless the modifier somehow intensifies fragrance oil). This would equate to a formula of 4% Fragrance Oil, 16% FO/EO Modifier and 80% Body Splash Base.

Posted By: Julie   |   Date: October 27, 2019

Staff Answer Per the product directions, the fragrance is mixed 4 parts modifier to 1 part fragrance. From this new mixture, you would take out 1% or 4%, in your case, and add to the base product. Adding the full amount of fragrance and modifier would be too much liquid added to the base and would require additional preservative. As stated previously, if you want to be able to use more fragrance and less modifier, we recommend using poly 20 which can be mixed 1:1.

Staff Answer Hi Susan. You would need to test this out but both of these products do the same thing. You may need to add a little more of the EO modifier since this is used at a 4:1 ratio and the Poly 20 is normally used at a 1:1 ratio.

"Could you help me understand the mixing ratio it says 4:1 now if I purchased your 16oz or Shower gel base it says max fragrance load of 2% would the math be 16oz x 2%= 0.32 ? If that’s correct from there how do I calculate the 4:1? I lookEd at a few recipes in the description on the shower gel they say 2oz FO and 2oz FO modifier to 16oz shower gel? Thank you! "

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer We think you were looking at the Shopping List not the actual Recipe Ingredients. Adding 4 oz. of liquids to 16 oz. would be way too much. You would mix 0.24 oz. FO & EO Modifier with 0.06 oz. fragrance. This would equal .30 oz. You could probably up the fragrance to .10 oz. to get more scent and stay with the .24 oz. modifier. If you find the fragrance separates, you can add slightly more modifier.

Staff Answer Fixed oils are the same as carrier oils such as sweet almond, jojoba, MCT oil, avocado, etc. The actual question was mixing water, almond oil and fragrance oil. We suggested polysorbate over using the modifier. Polysorbate 80 would be best in this formula, which we did not offer when this question was originally answered.

Staff Answer The FO & EO Modifier does have a slight odor which should disappear. The color change just might be a chemical reaction with this particular fragrance blend. You mentioned patchouli in the mixture which can tend to be a darker color. You can also use Poly 20 in a shower gel but this ingredient might cloud the end product.

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer The FO & EO Modifier is used when you are adding a fragrance/essential oil to a water based product such as shower gel, body mist, etc. In these types of liquid products, the oil will separate. The modifier helps blend them together which also Polysorbate 20 does (this may cloud your end product, though). Poly 80 is used when adding fixed oils (avocado, coconut, sweet almond, etc.) to a water based product.

"I am selling an essential oil product which includes this ingredient. Stating in my ingredient list that my product includes "fragrance" ruins the "essential oil" appeal of the product. As stated, product I am making is an essential oil product, not a fragrance oil product. Is there a way to get the INCI for this product?

Staff Answer Hi Karen - FO & EO Modifier is recommended at a 4 to 1 ratio of modifier to fragrance oil. Generally, body mist base can accept 2% fragrance. This means a recipe would breakdown as 90% Body Mist Base, 8% FO/EO Modifier, and 2% FO. For eight ounces this breaks down to 7.2 oz. base, 0.64 oz. FO/EO Modifier, and 0.16 oz. Fragrance Oil. It's important that the modifier and fragrance be mixed together before adding to the base. Also, these are just general recommendations. (continued below)

Staff Answer Fragrance modifiers are designed to help oil incorporate into water. They allow fragrance oils to blend instead of float. Two popular fragrance modifiers are Crafter’s Choice Fragrance and Essential Oil Modifier or Polysorbate 20. When fragrance oil is added to a clear base, you will find that the Crafter’s Choice FO/EO Modifier will stay clear and the Polysorbate 20 may cloud the product.

Staff Answer The FO/EO Modifier helps water based products mix with fragrances. If the scent is not holding, be sure to add the maximum amount allowed in your lotion. For soaps, you can add benzoin powder which is a fragrance fixative to help your fragrance last longer.

Staff Answer The bubbles for as a result of the product solubilizing the oil. That is normal and cannot be changed.

"I am trying to make some Room & Linen Sprays. I am using FO Modifier 4 ounces mixed with 1 ounce of FO (4 to 1 as recommended by WSP). I am adding 3 grams (1%) of this mixture to 8 ounces of distilled water. My question: This works with many FO and becomes clear, but some mixtures remain cloudy. Is there anything I can do to clear up this cloudiness? Am I doing this correctly? Thank you. "

Staff Answer Certain fragrances may need a little more FO Modifier to clear up the product. Try adding a few drops at a time until you have a clear product.

"Why is the ingredient for FO & EO Modifier listed as "fragrance"?"

Staff Answer Crafter's Choice FO & EO Modifier is made up of a proprietary blend of ingredients that are protected by trade secret laws. It is made of the same type of ingredients that are used to make a Fragrance Oil. When this product is used with your FO or EO, it becomes part of the FO or EO. Therefore, the combined ingredient may be listed as "fragrance".
