    I wanted to post here, as I am the formulator that is working on this product for the OP and we discussed posting a question in this forum. The product is a watery spray using high percentages of herbal extracts. Unlike one of the comments, the client wants the herbal extracts at efficacious levels. I have been making the herbal extracts myself with powdered herbs, doing a steep and then a fine straining but with the specific herbs in use, it makes the product very dark. In my experience, there is a tradeoff for color vs efficacy… There isn’t really a simple way to get a clear product that is going to have all of the properties of the herbs at full levels…

    That is the percentage of the formula.

    For reference, there are 8 herbs in the formula and most are between 1% and 2%…
