The fabulous Ian Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 So wanting to try this glycerin-adding jazz, I just skipped out to the local Rite-Aid and got this: RITE-AIDSkin Protectant GLYCERINUSP(on the back)Glycerin 99.5% AnhydrousWith other labels as well.Is this the right stuff? It doesn't make any mention of being animal or vegetable. It's a viscous, syrupy clear liquid with no smell and feels warm. (Since glycerin is supposed to be hygroscopic, that should be it pulling moisture rapidly from my skin, right? I've heard it's supposed to taste sweet, but I can't get up the nerve.) It doesn't have any warning labels against ingestion, so it should be safe. Right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonthert Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 USP is like United States Pharmucopia or some such thing. That should work for you...make sure it has no added smell or such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
