Hello, if i wanted to make a bath salt soak do i only need the polysorbate and omit the alcohol?

You're keeping the mixture loose instead of packing it into a mold? Correct, you do not need the alcohol. It helps the mixture clump and hold together in the mold, but you're not putting it in a mold. I would still use the polysorbate, though. It makes a *huge* difference in the mess level with this one!
