Polysorbate 80 (Tween 80)

Product Details

Oil and water don't naturally want to mix, and that's where Polysorbate 80 (also known as Tween 80) earns its keep in your craft room. This handy dispersing agent acts like a peacekeeper between oil-based ingredients, like lake dyes and fragrance oils, and water-based recipes, helping everything blend smoothly instead of separating into streaky layers.

It's especially useful for incorporating lake dyes into liquid soap and for keeping fragrance and color evenly distributed throughout bath bombs, so you get consistent color and scent in every fizzy bomb rather than a blotchy surprise.
