Small fairies are always welcomedFirst of all, here are the locations of the four bottles:

Bottles' locations

Dragon Roost Island (F2)
Medli gives you the first bottle after you helped her entering Dragon Roost Cavern.

Bomb Island (F5)
In a submarine located south from the island. Get inside, slay all Bokoblins and collect the bottle in the chest.

Rock Spire Isle (B3)
A special Terry shop is moving around the island. Get onboard and purchase the bottle for 500 rupees.

Windfall Island (D2)
At night, enter the city and speak to Mila, the little girl near the pharmacy. Move to the stairs and she will run. You can choose to follow her but the simpliest way would be to place yourself near the windmill's ladder (just in front of Zunari's shop). Look to your right (while setting your back against the ladder) and wait for her arrival. Once she gets behind Zunari's stall, jump and run to catch her red-handed. Talk to her and make sure you always choose the first answer.
