Product Description
Organic Glycerin is a clear, odourless, viscous liquid derived from certified organic vegetable oils. Known for its powerful humectant properties, it draws moisture into the skin and hair, helping to maintain hydration in various beauty and personal care formulations.
Unlike conventional glycerin, which may be a by-product of industrial processes, Aromantic’s Organic Glycerin is produced via a natural saponification and hydrolysis process. During production, organic plant oils such as soy, coconut, are broken down under heat and pressure, separating glycerin from fatty acids.
The glycerin is extracted through the saponification process and obtained through hydrolysis. It is then purified through distillation to ensure high clarity and quality.
This gentle and effective ingredient enhances the performance of moisturisers, toners, cleansers, serums, shampoos, and conditioners. Because it’s water-soluble, Organic Glycerin is easy to incorporate into a wide range of hydrating and conditioning recipes. It softens the skin without clogging pores and helps prevent formulations from drying out.
Whether you are crafting a hydrating gel, a smoothing lotion, or a restorative hair mask, Organic Glycerin provides the moisture-retaining qualities your products need—naturally.

Frequently Asked Questions

Organic Glycerin is used as a humectant in skincare and haircare products. It attracts water to the skin, keeping it soft and hydrated. It’s ideal in moisturisers, serums, toners, shampoos, and conditioners.
Can I use Organic Glycerin directly on the skin?
While it is safe to use topically, it’s best to dilute glycerin in a formulation. Undiluted glycerin can feel sticky and may draw moisture from the skin in dry environments.

Most batches are derived from sources other than palm oil, such as coconut and rapeseed oils. We prioritise these alternatives to ensure sustainability and quality. For specific batch information, please check the product label or contact us.

Yes. Our glycerin is entirely plant-derived, contains no animal by-products, and is never tested on animals.

Is Organic Glycerin safe for external use?
Yes, Organic Glycerin is intended for external use in topical applications such as skincare, haircare, and cosmetics. We recommend performing a patch test prior to use to ensure safety and avoid potential adverse reactions.

- Can you confirm that this is palm oil free please.
- Thank you for your enquiry. Yes, it is and our current stock is derived from Rapeseed oil.
- I am trying to compile a list of my ingredients in order to apply for a certificate of safety and they require purity percentages. They tell me that oils and essences are usually 100%. I am assuming that the emulsifiers I use MF and Ve, ceterial alcohol, eco silk, preservative eco are all 100% but am not sure about the organic Glycerine. Can you tell me the purity of this ingredient please or where I can find the information about ingredient purity. Regards Patricia Womack
