Thread: Glycerin

Yeah my local Walmart did the same they thought I needed suppositories. I was like "Do I look constipated to you?"

I checked out my target $7.xx and your local Rite-Aid has it for $8.50 as well



Unfortunately both those stores don't have the regular and only in Rose Petal. I've only used it once.

I need to check to see if local CVS/Longs Drugs have them.

The bottle on the left is the brand I got at Publix (Publix may be only in the South East.)

OK, I bought the glycerin a couple of months ago and add about five drops after I have worked up a fair lather in my cup. Now, I am not entirely sure what glycerin does. Does it stabilize the lather so it doesn't dry out so quickly. This was the purpose I bought it for. Or does it increase the lather. I just can't tell for sure.

Like everyone else has said, next to the band aids

It actually helps keep the skin nice and soft. It also makes the lather better in some way, I think it makes the lather more consistent and in general softer.

Glycerin is used in soap making (for those who like home made soap) and I know glycerin soap is used by some people who has skin issues. I just didn't know what it does for soap. The soap I use is a glycerin based soap but does make a denser lather if I add glycerin to the lather I make.

The above pic is what I've got too. And I got it at walmart. Next to the Phx. Ask the Pharm, people. $2.50 a bottle

Buy Wholesale Vegetable Glycerin

OK, next to the bandaids. I have not been able to find it. Perhaps my small desert city only has beer and cigarettes. I will look again.

Glycerin is not used in soap making, glycerin is produced by soap making. It can also be added to soap once it has been made.

When added to soap does it not make a differnt soap product? I. E. glycerin soap?
