A room spray that actually works needs two things: a way to disperse the Essential Oil evenly into the air so it doesn't spot surfaces, and something to neutralise existing odours rather than just adding fragrance on top of them. Polysorbate 20 handles the first problem, bicarb handles the second, and your blend does the rest.
HERO INGREDIENT — Polysorbate 20 Polysorbate 20 is an emulsifier — it allows Essential Oils to mix fully into water so they spray as a fine, even mist rather than as oil droplets that land on fabric or surfaces and cause staining. Without it, any room spray made with water and Essential Oil will separate and spray inconsistently. It's the ingredient that makes the difference between a recipe that works and one that looks right but doesn't perform.
WHAT ELSE IS IN THIS RECIPE
Geogard ECT — preservative that keeps the water-based formula stable between uses and prevents microbial growth
Essential Oil blend — the scent — this is where the blend on the left page comes in; choose something that suits the room and the mood
Distilled Water — mineral-free carrier that prevents residue on surfaces after the spray settles
