Glycerine

Glycerin, or glycerol, is derived from plant-based oils and is gentle on the skin ideal for dry and sensitive skin.  The hygroscopic nature of glycerine attracts moisture from the air and the lower pH, helps the skin retain its natural moisture. At the same time, glycerin is non greasy and is a good choice for oily skin. Glycerine is beneficial for the following conditions:

  • dermatitis (eczema)
  • dry skin
  • psoriasis
  • rosacea
