Glycerin soap
Known for its skin softening properties, glycerin plays a major role as a natural humectant. Humectants are substances that attract and retain moisture. For the skin to remain supple, soft and elastic, it is essential for the skin to remain moist and hydrated. Glycerin soaps aid in absorbing water from the air as it is highly hygroscopic. Handmade glycerine soaps retain the natural glycerin that is formed during the soap- making process. Glycerin is used in making clear soaps that are gentle on tender skin and children. But they tend to dissolve faster in water.
As we age, our skin loses its texture due to continuous exposure to the polluted environment and use of harsh chemicals. It then becomes dry and develops wrinkles. This phenomenon can be delayed by using handmade glycerin soap as glycerin has the natural tendency to retain the moisture in our skin by helping our skin to absorb more moisture from the air. It is an ideal choice for those with sensitive skin, delicate skin and for children too. Glycerin works as a soothing emollient.
