Glycerin Organic, Additive

INCI Name: Glycerin

Our pure vegetable Glycerin Organic is derived from palm or coconut oil, is GMO and allergen-free, and is Kosher. Glycerin is colourless and odourless additive, having a slight viscosity and sweet taste.

It is a viscous humectant liquid used as an agent in making cosmetics, toothpaste, shampoos, soaps, herbal remedies, pharmaceuticals, and other household items. It is invaluable as a natural-source ingredient with emollient properties that can soften and soothe the skin. Because it is a humectant, it assists the epidermis in retaining moisture. It is soluble in both water and alcohol; this versatility is a major factor in its popularity in manufacturing.

Recommended Usage

Glycerin Organic is humectant and lubricating, ideal for topical applications where moisture retention is important. It also gives creams and lotions a smoother texture.

Shelf Life: Glycerin Organic has a shelf-life of 1 - 2 years.
