So, you want to make your own body splashes and room sprays but you have one problem/question: How do you combine oil and water so you don't have to constantly 'shake well' your product or worry about clogging up your sprayer? Believe it or not, the answer is so much simpler than you might think. Enter: FO/EO modifier!
This product can be purchased through multiple sources and works wonders! The process couldn't be simpler. Take your fragrance and combine with the modifier at a ratio of 1 part oil to 4 parts modifier. Mix together and allow to sit for a good 10 minutes or so. This gives the solution a chance to incorporate well. The added benefit here is that, in essence you are stretching your fragrances 4 times as far! Then add your modified oil to your water solution at the desired fragrance level or per your recipe. Shake well to combine and the product will not separate. Genius, right?
Stay tuned for some upcoming recipes using this product. My go to product is a lavender lemongrass room spray and my kids swoon for the cotton candy body splash!

If I can find the modifier I'll be making this spray a.s.a.p. We have a stinky dog in the house and I like to spray our hamper after I empty it to do laundry. I'm sure I'll be using this quite often. Thank you so much for sharing this information.
ReplyDeleteThere's a lavender festival in another area fairly close this weekend so if possible I'm hoping to go. We also have a Sprouts in Grand Junction, CO so maybe can get some of the stuff I need there. It was meant to be for me to find this post as I've been wanting to get some lavender, oil and dried. Happy summer.
wholesalesuppliesplus.com sells the modifier. The bonus with their website is that if you spend $30, shipping is free!
DeleteI went to the other post to find out about the modifier. Thanks for sharing the info and recipe for this spray. I can hardly wait to make it. I've been wanting to make something natural to spray the house due to a smelly dog in the house and to de stink the hamper after I take stinky sweaty shirts out of it. Peeeuuuwww. Thanks for sharing. Noticed the pretty bottles of this spray, do you sell it and market it?
