A clear, viscous, palm-free vegetable glycerine certified organic by the Soil Association. Made from mahua seed, soybean, flaxseed, and mustard seed oils — produced through hydrolysis to separate the glycerin from the fatty acids, then distilled for purity.

Widely used in cosmetics for soap making, moisturisers, shampoo, conditioners, creams, and lotions. Works as both an emollient and humectant, helping to retain moisture in skin and hair. Well suited to sensitive, dry, or irritated skin. Also a useful ingredient in homemade cleaning recipes, where it helps boost cleaning power and supports stain removal.

  • Certified organic by the Soil Association (inspected annually)
  • Palm free
  • Clear and odourless
  • 99.5% Glycerine, 0.5% Aqua
  • Cosmetic grade — NOT food grade
