Vegetable glycerin attracts and holds water molecules on the skin thus providing increased hydration. These qualities make it an excellent base for a variety of cosmetic preparations. Usage: use a small amount of earth's care vegetable glycerin for massage or as needed to nourish and hydrate cracked or chapped skin. Dilute with water for use on sensitive skin.
