At RAH/CEL, we choose vegetable glycerin because it helps create products that feel nourishing, balanced, and enjoyable to use.
What Is Vegetable Glycerin?
Vegetable glycerin is a clear, odorless liquid derived from plant oils. It is classified as a humectant, meaning it helps attract moisture from the surrounding environment and draw it toward the skin.
Because of its gentle nature and compatibility with many skin types, vegetable glycerin is widely used in skincare, personal care, and wellness products around the world.

Our Philosophy
Not every ingredient needs to be exotic to be valuable.
Some of the most important ingredients in a formula are the ones that quietly support comfort, hydration, and performance. Vegetable glycerin is one of those ingredients—a simple, dependable component that helps create products people enjoy using every day.
At RAH/CEL, we believe transparency means celebrating every ingredient's purpose, whether it's a hero ingredient that takes center stage or a supporting ingredient working behind the scenes.
