What do I do with glycerin?

If you put it on mirrors in the bathroom it stops them going foggy. ( when I tried it I couldn't rub it in enough and they were permanently foggy ) Probably need to dilute it. Perhaps with meths.0

I bought a little bottle of Glycerine from the supermarket today because it was reduced to 10p. Does anyone have any good recipes which include it?2008 Comping ChallengeWon so far - £3010 Needed - £230Debt free since Oct 20040

Hi black-saturn,
There are a couple of recipes hereGlycerine is also used a lot in soap making. If you have a look on google you should find more recipes.

I've heard that if you wipe the inside of your freezer with glycerine after you defrost it then it stops the frost building up as much.
Also, if you add a tablespoon or so to rich fruit cakes, it adds that 'squishiness' and helps them stay moist for longer.0 -
glycerine, hot water and a dash of lemon juice make a fab cough medicine.CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J0

Add a tablespoon to your conditioner bottle, or use a few drops as a leave-in on *wet* hair for soft, moisturised hair.
Never use neat glycerine on dry hair (or skin) as it will have the opposite effect!Cogito, ergo sum.0 -
Hi, BS - I had a similar question last year. The thread's here.
I used mine in my Christmas cake icing and it rerally worked to keep it soft!
