Glycerin (Vegetable)

Glycerin - the thirst quencher for your skin

Glycerin is a special product. It is obtained from rapeseed oil, but is in water soluble. Our glycerin has a purity of 99.5%. The other 0.5% consists of water. It has no smell or color and is therefore easy to mix with other ingredients. The glycerin is hypoallergenic, making it suitable for almost every skin type.

Glycerin attracts and retains moisture from its environment, greatly helping to hydrate your skin. An indispensable ingredient for every skin!

Glycerin also has the special property that it stimulates the skin cells to recover. Glycerin helps in getting smoother, softer skin.

How do you use glycerin?

It is important to always mix glycerin with enough water. When you add too little water to glycerin, it can be counterproductive and dry out the skin. Mix it at least in a 1:4 ratio (1 part glycerin with 4 parts water).

For example, a delicious recipe for a super moisturizing face or body spray is 10% glycerin with 90% rose water of aloë vera sap.

You can also mix a few drops of glycerin into your DIY shampoo for extra hydrated hair!

Our Glycerin is of food-grade quality so it is also very suitable for glycerin-based tinctures.
