Glycerine, Vegetable

Botanical Name: Vegetable BP

A colourless sweet viscous liquid derived from vegetable fats. It is a by-product of the soap-making process, which separates the glycerine from the fatty acids in the whole oil.Glycerine is a humectant (which means it attracts moisture from the environment to the skin.) With moisture on the skin, we feel softer and have less irritation.

Glycerine can be used in small quantities in lip glosses, hand creams etc
