Diy vegetable glycerin moisturizer

Vegetable glycerin, a natural by-product of the oil production process, is an odorless, colorless liquid often used as a cosmetic additive in lotions, moisturizers, soaps and shampoos. According to Botanical.com, glycerin has emollient-like properties that soften and soothe the skin, and assist in retaining moisture. A well-known humectant, glycerin also draws moisture from the air to the skin, which makes it an ideal ingredient for homemade moisturizers. This recipe yields approximately 4.5 ounces, or about 25 applications, of glycerin moisturizer suitable for all skin types.

Combine the water and vegetable glycerin in a small mixing bowl. Stir using a wire whisk until thoroughly combined.

Add the cold-pressed vegetable oil, and whisk again to combine. Use any type of cold-pressed oil you have on hand such as avocado, peanut, sesame, sweet almond or apricot kernel.

Add the essential oil to the glycerin mixture, and whisk to combine. Use an essential oil suited to your skin type for the best results. Lavender and rose nourish normal skin, cedarwood and rosewood hydrate dry skin, and citrus-based oils such as orange and lemon combat oily skin.
Transfer your homemade glycerin moisturizer to a plastic or glass bottle with spritzer top. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight when not in use. Use within thirty days for maximum freshness, or refrigerate and use within four months.

Apply to face and throat with a cotton swab, or gently spritz onto the skin. Allow the mixture to dry without rinsing. Repeat daily after washing with a gentle cleanser, or anytime your skin needs refreshing.

Tip

In her book “Better Basics for the Home,” Annie Berthold-Bond recommends making your glycerin moisturizer with avocado oil for dry or aged skin, and peanut or sesame oil for oily skin. Sweet almond and apricot kernel oils are lighter and suitable for all skin types.

For extra moisturizing action, use rose water or lavender water instead of spring or distilled water.

For sensitive or very dry skin, substitute aloe vera gel for 1 to 2 tbsp. of the water.

5 Ways to Use Glycerine in Baking

1: Keep Cake Fresher for Longer

While cakes don’t stick around very long in the Queen HQ, adding an extra day or two to your bakes is a handy trick to have up your sleeve when needs must. Adding a couple teaspoons of glycerine to your cake batter before baking acts as a preservative, holding onto that fresh baked feeling long after it has come out of the oven. We recommend using up to 3 tsp in a Vanilla Cake and 1-2 tsp in Chocolate Cake to really lock in that moisture.

2: Smooth & Shiny Royal Icing

A touch of glycerine in royal icing adds shine and prevents your icing setting hard and dry. This makes it far easier to apply to cakes, and guarantees a nice smooth cut when slicing. Add 1 tsp of glycerine for every 500g of icing sugar for a softer set and 2 tsp per 500g for a nice glossy finish.

3: Prevent Crystalisation

Adding a small amount of glycerine when heating sugar and water to high temperatures helps to prevent the sugar from crystalising. Glycerine also works as a softening agent in candy giving your fudge, truffles and caramels a soft creamy consistency.

4: Creamy Buttercream

Much like royal icing, glycerine can help buttercream from drying out and forming a crust. While the Queen team is divided when it comes to soft or crusty buttercream, for those of us who prefer it creamy, glycerine is the answer. Not only does it help keep your buttercream silky smooth, it also helps when decorating, allowing you to take your time with sprinkles or attaching decorations to your buttercream creations. Inspired?? We’ve got a handy buttercream video tutorial that walks you through 4 different recipes.

5: Fixing Finicky Fondant

Adding just a tablespoon of glycerine to your homemade fondant recipe will help improve its texture and workability. Better yet, if you have an older batch of fondant that is stiff and cracking, glycerine can help bring it back to life. Start with a few drops, folding it through your fondant until it is supple and smooth once again!

Bonus Tip:

While it’s not exactly a baking tip, this little tidbit was too fun not to share. Glycerine is the secret ingredient to the best bubble mix you’ve ever made! Evaporation is what causes bubbles to pop, and by adding glycerine to your bubble mix, you essentially create a thicker skin. This slows down the evaporation process and makes them stronger, which means bigger bubbles with the added bonus of a bit of bounce!

Vegetable glycerin in cosmetics

What: Glycerin is a colorless, odorless, viscous liquid which freezes to a gummy paste and has a high boiling point. Glycerin can be dissolved into water or alcohol, but not oils. On the other hand, many things will easily dissolve into glycerin, easier than they do into water or alcohol, so it is a good solvent (Pioneer Thinking).

Glycerin is used in cosmetics and personal care products mainly to improve skin’s smoothness and moisture content (Wiki). It is a humectant (attracts moisture to the skin), naturally emollient, and has a cooling effect on skin.

Origin: Glycerin (also called glycerol) is a naturally occurring alcohol compound and a component of many lipids. Glycerin may be of animal or vegetable origin (EWG).

Products Found In: Facial moisturizer, body lotion, sunscreen, makeup, hair care, facial treatments, shaving cream, soap, water-based personal lubricants.

Alternative Names: Glycerol, Glycerolum, Glicerol, Glyzerin, 1,2,3-Propantriol, Glycerinester, Pfl. Glycerin, Clycerin, Vegetable Glycerin (Cosmetic Analysis).

Toxicity: Glycerin (Glycerol or Glycerine) is generally classified as having low toxicity (EWG).

Vegetable glycerin safe vape ?

Unfortunately, it is difficult to say whether vegetable glycerin is safe to inhale. Here are some things to keep in mind about e-liquid and e-cigarette safety:

  • While vegetable glycerin is considered to be safe for eating, drinking or applying to the skin, it has not been thoroughly assessed for safety in smoking or vaping.
  • Flavorings and colorings are usually food-grade, but there is not enough research to determine if these are safe to inhale.
  • The Flavor and Extract Manufacturers Association (FEMA) has found that over 1,000 flavorings are potentially hazardous to the lungs.

The information shows that inhaling glycerol might have no effect, but it may also have a risk of harm. Researchers have enough evidence to show that inhaling glycerol is probably not safe, but they don’t know for sure if it’s harmful yet.

Substitute for vegetable glycerin

Vegetable oil is another potential substitute for vegetable glycerin, for the same reason as corn syrup is sometimes used — it is one of the sources of vegetable glycerin. Likewise, it’s usually used in the same amounts but with less of an effect because it contains other substances as well as glycerin. This is one of the better options for a substitute if vegetable glycerin is being used mainly to help maintain moisture. It will increase the calories, however, as vegetable oil is basically 100 percent fat, with 9 calories per gram.
