Glycerine?

Question

hi, im in melbourne australia and im wanting to buy some glycerine, for making soaps and stuff.. does anyone know any shops that sell it.. besides online? thanks

Answer 1

You should be able to get it from drugstore, chemists, health food stores, and some crafts stores.

I can get it in NM,USA, at the drugstores and health food stores. Sometimes the better crafts stores have it.

Much less expensive to buy online and pay the shipping too, tho.

Answer 2

Another place to buy glycerin in larger amounts more cheaply than in the drug store, and probably even online because of the shipping weight, etc., is in a store that sells feed and tack for horses.  Glycerin is used on their hooves.  

You should be able to find horse supplies in Australia without a problem ...or check in the  business pages of your phone directory if necessary, under Horses, or Feed, or Animals, etc.... or you might ask a vet where you can find one, especially a "large-animal vet."
