Glycerin

Description

Harness the deep-hydrating power of Glycerin, the world’s most trusted humectant, for your Build-Your-Own ORY^® skincare, haircare, handmade soap, and cosmetics. Vegetable glycerin is a small, skin-identical sugar alcohol produced when oils are split — exactly what happens in soap making, so every ORY^® cold-process bar naturally contains its own glycerin. In the skin, glycerin is more than a water magnet: the skin actively draws it in through its own aquaporin-3 channels, where it keeps barrier lipids supple, supports healthy shedding of dry flakes, and helps the barrier recover; a 20% glycerin cream improved barrier function in clinical testing. In your custom serum, toner, cream, lotion, cleanser, mask, or mist, it delivers deep, lasting hydration to every skin type and reduces the dryness of cleansing. In your curl cream or gel, leave-in, conditioner, or scalp serum, it adds moisture, elasticity, and definition. In your handmade soap, it is the built-in reason ORY^® bars feel gentler than commercial soap. In your cosmetics, it keeps foundations, primers, and lip products hydrated and flexible. Customize your cruelty-free, vegan formulation with gold-standard hydration. Caution: Can feel tacky above ~10%; in very dry air, pair with an emollient. Use lower levels in humid climates for straight hair.
