Description
Vegetable Glycerin is a transparent, colorless, and odorless viscous liquid derived from the oils of plants such as coconut, palm, or soy. It functions as a highly effective humectant, emollient, and solvent in cosmetic and personal care formulations.
Its pH closely aligns with that of healthy skin, making it gentle enough for sensitive skin and suitable for baby skincare applications.
