Glycerine (Glycerol) is a naturally derived humectant with a glycerine content of more than 99.50% — pharmaceutical and cosmetic grade purity. This Halal-certified ingredient is one of the most fundamental and universally used ingredients in personal care formulation, acting as a powerful humectant that draws moisture from the environment into the skin, providing immediate and lasting hydration. Derived from plant-based fats through saponification or biodiesel production, vegetable-source Glycerine is suitable for Halal, vegan, and natural product formulations.
