Preservatives and Glycerine

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

 

Martin, sorry to hear about your website, hope you get that all worked

out.

 

I know that I can't put water in anything without needing a

preservative, but was wondering if using glycerine will require a

preservative? I assume the answer is yes, since glycerine is a liquid?

 

Thanks!

Pure glycerine is inert and will not support growth, but as soon as

you use it to extract herbs, or add to a product, you up the water

content. So it all depends on how it is used.
