GLYCERIN is a valuable cream additive that is widely used in cosmetics and personal care products. This colorless, odorless and dense liquid, also known as glycerol, is frequently preferred in skin care products, moisturizing creams and face masks with its superior desiccant properties. GLYCERIN, which can be obtained from natural sources, provides long-term moisturizing by absorbing the moisture in the atmosphere to the skin thanks to its hygroscopic structure. Appropriate packaging solutions are of great importance to maintain the effectiveness of this cream additive, which is one of the indispensable components of cosmetic formulations.
Properties of Glycerin and Its Effects on the Skin
GLYCERIN is a simple polyol compound containing three hydroxyl groups. Thanks to this structure, it has a high water holding capacity and prevents transepidermal water loss by creating a moisture barrier on the skin surface. GLYCERIN, which has an important place among cream additives, provides optimal moisturizing when used at concentrations of 3-10%. By supporting the skin's natural moisturizing factors (NMF), it alleviates dry, cracked skin problems and increases skin elasticity. It also acts as a carrier by increasing the penetration of other active ingredients in the skin and extends the shelf life of the product thanks to its antimicrobial properties.
The Importance of Packaging Selection in Cosmetic Products Containing Glycerin
The effectiveness of cosmetic products containing glycerin can be maintained with the right packaging solutions. This valuable cream additive, due to its hygroscopic properties, tends to attract moisture from the air and may lose its effectiveness as a result of deterioration of the moisture balance in unsuitable packaging. In addition, airtight packaging should be preferred, as it may be sensitive to oxidation. In order for glycerin to stabilize, it must be stored in temperature-controlled environments and protected from UV rays. The plastic cream boxes produced by Özkamçı Plastik meet these requirements and maximize the effectiveness and shelf life of cosmetic products containing GLYCERIN.
