What is Glycerin?
Meet the unsung hero of gentle dish soap bars: glycerin. This crystal-clear, subtly sweet liquid mirrors the moisturizing compounds naturally present in your skin. While your hands tackle greasy pans and crusty casserole dishes, glycerin is hard at work drawing water toward your skin rather than letting harsh detergents strip it away.
Sources of Glycerin
Natural Sources
A beautiful example of sustainable full-circle production—glycerin emerges naturally during the transformation of coconut, soy, and other plant oils into soap, then remains in our soap bars to benefit your hands.
Industrial Production
Carefully harvested from biodiesel production or created through eco-friendly fermentation of plant sugars, then refined to kitchen-grade purity that meets our exacting standards.
Uses of Glycerin
While starring in our dish soap bars as a hand-protecting agent, this versatile ingredient graces everything from high-end hand creams to lip balms, bringing its moisture-preserving magic to hard-working hands everywhere.
Benefits of Glycerin

Superior Soap Experience – Contributes to that satisfying slip and glide as you work the bar across stubborn pans, making dish duty almost enjoyable.

Conclusion
Glycerin stands as the compassionate component in your dish soap bar—quietly protecting your hands while the cleaning agents tackle tough kitchen messes. It's the perfect example of how sustainable ingredients can transform an everyday chore into a surprisingly kind-to-skin experience.
