Irreplacable base material
Glycerine is an important component of the skin
Did you know? Glycerine is found in the protective acid mantle of the skin. It is part of its Natural Moisturising Factor (NMF), which helps it retain essential moisture. It also helps maintain the barrier function of the skin, protecting it from drying and irritation.
Our vegetable glycerine provides valuable moisture to the skin and is an excellent humectant. Used as a carefully dosed ingredient in our special skin care formulas, glycerine can also help improve the skin's elasticity. It occurs in all natural fats and oils as a fatty acid ester (triglyceride).
