What is Glycerol: It also called Glycerin. It is a simple triol compound. It is a colorless, odorless, viscous liquid that is sweet-tasting and non-toxic. The glycerol backbone is found in lipids known as glycerides.  It is commonly used in cosmetic products due to its lubricating and conditioning abilities. Glycerin is also an effective carrier oil and is often paired with other skin-softening ingredients because it helps evenly distribute them throughout the formulation.

It is biodegradable and renewable. It is used in our Moisturising Thickening Gel and Multi Use Leave in Conditioner to lock in moisture.
