About Bell's Glycerin BP
Pure pharmaceutical-grade glycerin in a 200ml bottle: the humectant that draws moisture into the skin and holds it there. Bell's Glycerin BP is the skincare classic for dry, rough or chapped hands, tight winter faces and DIY beauty recipes — the same ingredient found in most moisturisers, without anything else added.
Why glycerin
Glycerin is a humectant: it pulls water from the air and deeper skin layers into the surface, plumping and softening. Neat it's too sticky for most, so the tradition is to dilute it — a little in water or rosewater as a toner, a few drops in a hand cream, or mixed with lemon juice for the old-fashioned overnight hand treatment.
How to use
Dilute before use — roughly one part glycerin to three or four parts water or rosewater — and smooth onto clean skin. For external use only. Patch-test if your skin is sensitive.
Good to know
This is glycerin for skincare, not the lemon-and-honey cough syrup — for that, see Care Glycerin Lemon & Honey. A cosmetic, so persistent skin problems belong with a pharmacist.

Frequently asked questions
How do I use glycerin on my skin?
Dilute it — about one part glycerin to three or four parts water or rosewater — and smooth onto clean skin. Neat glycerin is sticky and can feel drying in very dry air.
Is this the glycerin cough syrup?
No — this is pure glycerin BP for skincare. For coughs, look at Care Glycerin Lemon & Honey syrup.
Can I use it on my face?
Yes, diluted — it's the same humectant used in most face moisturisers. Patch-test first if your skin is sensitive.
