Glycerin

(Vegetable)

 

Glycerin is a clear, odorless liquid produced from plant oils. Many personal care and cosmetic products, including lotions, shampoo contain vegetable glycerin. Glycerin is added because it is a humectant; a substance that attracts moisture to the skin. Cosmetic products that contain Glycerin will deliver an active ingredient, a humectant can increase the solubility of the active ingredient, making it more easily absorbed by the skin. Vegetable glycerin may be used as a solvent and substitute for alcohol when producing botanical and herbal extracts or tinctures.
