Essential Therapeutics Essential Shower Gel 5L
Essential Shower Gel is suitable both as a body wash and as a mild shampoo. It is suited to be used as is or with the addition of pure essential oils. From 0.5% to 2% additional essential oils can be added. The most effective way to add oils to the shower gel is to mix one part of essential oil with four parts of our Essential Solubiliser first. Then, simply mix into the shower gel. There may be a change to the consistency and colour of the shower gel based on the essential oils and dosages used.
Essential Therapeutics Essential Solubilizer 1L
Essential Solubiliser is generally used in the ratio of 3 to 5 parts Solubiliser to 1 part essential oil. Lower amounts of Solubiliser will create a milky emulsion; higher amounts will create a clear solution. Some essential oils, such as citrus oils, require a higher amount of Solubiliser in order to create a clear solution. Unlike Disper, Solubiliser will also emulsify vegetable oils into water. For vegetable oils, use a ratio of 1 to 2 parts Solubiliser to each part vegetable oil.
Sample formula – Muscle Relief Bath Treatment – for 100mL
Ingredients:
Essential Solubiliser – 90mL
Muscle Relief Massage Concentrate – 10mL
Directions: To help relieve muscular pain and stiffness, aromatic baths are a useful and effective form of treatment. Simply mix the ingredients together and bottle. To a full hot bath, 5mL to 10mL of the preparation is added and mixed into the water to disperse. As the essential oils are fully emulsified in the bath water, there will be no possible skin irritation – as can be the case if essential oils are simply “floated” on the surface of the bath.

Essential Therapeutics Laponite Gel (mineral gelling agent) 500ml
Amigel & Laponite Gel - Which gel is better to use?
It is often just a matter of personal preference. Amigel will accept a higher amount of additional ingredients, if this is required. It can also be thinned down to a more water-like consistency. Amigel also has a relatively ‘slippery’ feel on the skin.
Laponite creates a stiffer gel with a nice “astringent” feel when applied. If 15% or less of additional ingredients are to be added, Laponite is a fine choice. Try experimenting with both gels!
