NOW products, in my experience, are excellent quality. This vegetable glycerine (AKA glycerin or glycerol) certainly is excellent. I use it as-is to condition my fingernails after removing polish. It quickly hydrates and moisturizes the nail bed and prepares it for another go-round with polish or nail treatments. You can even add it to your bottle of nail polish remover to make the remover less damaging to your nails. I also use it along with shea butter, cocoa butter, and sometimes coconut oil and avocado oil when I make my own lotions or creams. By whipping it into warmed shea butter, I can create the viscosity I want — everything from almost liquid lotions to chunky squares (actually, I use a silicon tray with heart shapes) of moisturizing “butter.”
Some people mix it with baking soda and hydrogen peroxide to make a teeth whitening toothpaste. I tried that but prefer my Colgate Optic White. There is a lot of misinformation about glycerine on the internet, so you can get bogged down in a lot of false leads if you’re not careful. I could not find any scientific studies that supported the charge that glycerine damages teeth and I found articles by medical professionals that say it does not. In any event, I didn’t like the homemade whitening toothpaste, but I did find a GREAT way to use it. Clinical (double-blind, etc.) studies show that arginine and calcium carbonate are good for teeth. So I took a couple of tablets of each, ground them up and mixed them into a paste with 2/3 ratio of glycerine. The “paste” that results makes teeth healthier and less likely to experience pain when whitening products are used.
On my skin, I do not like the feel of glycerine when used undiluted; I always have to mix it with something. In fact, I have read from reliable sources that it can draw so much moisture from the lower layers of skin that it can cause blistering if used at 100%. I’ve never had that experience because I mix it with ingredients like shea and cocoa butters.
That said, my nails and skin are healthier than ever and I’m saving money because I no longer buy commercial lotions. Glycerine is an emollient and humectant that is well-documented as a remedy for dry, rough, itchy skin and minor skin irritations such as diaper rash, so I know I am not just imagining a “placebo effect”. As an ingredient that is found naturally in the skin and that helps skin retain its healthy, barrier function, it is very effective and very helpful. Love it!

I used to use CVS brand glycerine…when I could find it, that is. But lately, I have not seen the product on store shelves anywhere. I even tried ordering it online through CVS.com, and they were out of stock, and have possibly discontinued making it.
Again, glad I did a search on Amazon, and found this product. I have been using NOW-brand supplements for years now, so I trusted this brand to deliver: the many glowing reviews didn’t hurt, either.
I am happy to say this product delivers on all its promises: it is lightweight, virtually scent-less, and provides superior skin rejuvenation and moisturizing. Also, a good value for the price. I have a little side hustle of making my own signature fragrances, free of all those nasty additives you find in commercial colognes. I use denatured alcohol, pure essential oils, with a dropperful of glycerine to bind the ingredients together. Way too many uses/applications to list here – let’s just say it works, and works great!

I got this for a component of homemade watercolors, but it is a versatile product that can be used in making other things as well such as home/ self care products. The moisture and absorption of this oil is great and it is awesome for using in homemade watercolors. It seems great quality and is a lot of oil for the decent price. I’m not sure on comfort as I am using it for watercolors.
