GLYCERINE 99.5%
Id:

Glycerin is one of the best natural moisturizers in living systems and is commonly used in skin care products for preventing
and treating skin dryness because it moisturizes/plasticizes the stratum corneum. A powerful humectant, benefits include attraction
of moisture, osmoregulation of the intracellular milieu, and maintenance of liquid crystallinity/fluidity of cell membranes.
Glycerine is increasingly replacing propylene glycol wherever possible due to cost savings and its natural vegetable origins.
