Luscious Bubble Bars from Voyageur

Take your bathing experience a notch higher with these exquisite bubble bars! With the smell and look  of these delectable bars, you would almost think of them as bonbons. Crumble a small part of these delights and place under running water to spread their fragrance and create those bubbles on your tub. That is, if you can restrain yourself from taking a bite! Ingredients:                                          Weight: Sodium bicarbonate (baking powder)        1 cup Sodium lauryl sulfoacetate                      1 cup Cream of tartar                                   1/3 cup Cocoamidopropyl betaine                      7 tbsp. Vegetable glycerin                               3 tbsp. Fragrance/essential oil                          1 tsp. Labcolors™, preferred (liquid)                   q.s. Equipments: Face mask Stainless steel/glass mixing bowl Soap mold Gloves Procedure: Procedure: Note: Before starting, wear a face mask and hand gloves to protect oneself against sodium lauryl sulfoacetate. Project should also be done in a well-ventilated area as the chemical is a respiratory irritant. Combine gently all dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Sift until no lumps are left. Add fragrance oil and carefully mix again. Try to avoid over-agitation as the dry ingredients are very light and waft easily. Gradually add the liquid ingredients while kneading the mixture; it will take the consistency of dough after a few minutes. Add color when mass begins to hold together in your hand. Pastel hues are preferred. Mix color thoroughly until incorporated in the dough, and no white spots are seen. Work as quickly as possible because dough tends to be crumbly as it dries. Add glycerin or cocoamidopropyl betaine if dough needs to be moistened. Set aside. To create a multicolored effect, you can either layer two dough of different hues into a loaf pan, or combine them into a single mass for a streaked or marbled look. Try also rolling two or more dough for a jellyroll effect. Powder the molds/loaf pans to be used. Press the combined masses firmly into the mold/pan to hold them as they dry. Leave bars for an hour or more before removing. Place them on a lined cookie sheet to cure for a week or two. Once the bars have hardened, place in an airtight container to store.

Hand Lotion Recipe with Honey

Honey has been prized for centuries not just for its taste but for its healing properties. This sweet gold is regarded as the only edible material that doesn’t break down or expire; incorporating it to other food products prolongs their shelf life. Honey even goes beyond its status as another form of sustenance because it is valued medicinally for its healing properties. Why not channel these benefits to your skin? The recipe below is taken from the formulary of Dave Cushman (http://www.dave-cushman.net/bee/newhome.html), an English bee keeper.

Aside from beeswax and the aforementioned honey, other natural ingredients are included to nourish the skin. Lanolin is a yellow waxy substance secreted by the oil glands of wool producing animals like sheep. This wax is a potent emollient and moisturizer that protects skin against harsh elements. Glycerin is also added to enhance the moisturizing benefits of this lotion.

Ingredients:

16 grams beeswax

64 milliliters food grade mineral oil

20 grams honey

20 grams lanolin

30 milliliters glycerin, USP

15 grams soap flakes

5 drops of lemon juice

Method:

Melt beeswax, lanolin, and mineral oil together at approximately 70°C in one water bath. In another bath, mix honey, soap flakes, and glycerin at approximately 39°C. Allow to cool the wax-and-oil mixture to 39°C before combining it to the honey mixture. Mix well while intermittently adding the lemon juice. Whisk further until smooth. Pour into jars and enjoy!

Buy Glycerine USP

Glycerine USP is a viscous, colorless, and sweet-tasting substance widely used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. It is usually added in soaps, lotions, sunscreens, shaving creams, syrups, sweeteners, and toothpastes. Glycerine is soluble in water, has a high boiling point, and freezes to a paste.

Propane-1,2,3-triol is the compound’s official IUPAC name. Glycerol, glycerin, and glycol alcohol are some of its popular synonyms. Glycerine has HOCH₂-CHOHCH₂OH for its chemical structure, which consists of three carbon atoms, two of which are attached to two hydrogen atoms and a hydroxyl group. Simultaneously, the central carbon atom is attached to a hydrocarbon and a hydroxyl group. Because of this hydroxyl bond, glycerin is classified as an alcohol (trihydric group).

Karl Wilhelm Scheele discovered glycerin in 1779 after he isolated the compound from a mixture of olive oil and lead oxide (PbO). It was later discovered by Alfred Nobel to be a component of explosives, making it an important commodity during the two world wars. Today, glycerine is produced through biodiesel production or soap making process.

Glycerine has a vapor pressure of 0.0002 mmHg in 25°C and a vapor density of 3.17 (Air=1). Its molecular weight is 92.09, with a melting point of 19°C and a boiling point of 290°C. Saturation value of glycerin is set at 0.0003% at 50°C, while its density is set at 1.261 g/cm3 at 20°C. 577°C is its critical temperature and 74.02 is its critical pressure. Aside from water, glycerine is soluble in acetone and alcohol while insoluble in benzene and ether.

Glycerine should be stored in a tightly closed container, away from other incompatible compounds. Wash hands well before and after using the substance and wear protective clothing (laboratory gown, gloves, chemical safety glasses, or protective eyeglasses). Use product in well-ventilated areas. Clean up spills immediately using inert materials before disposing in chemical waste bins. Glycerine is combustible so remove all sources of ignition. No other special precautions are required.

In case of glycerine ingestion, DO NOT induce vomiting. If victim is unconscious, never give anything by the mouth; if conscious and alert, rinse mouth and let victim drink 2-4 cups of milk or water. In case of inhalation, remove the person from the area of exposure immediately. Supply oxygen if the person experiences breathing difficulties. Wash skin with plenty of water and soap for about 15-20 minutes if skin is exposed by the chemical. Remove contaminated clothing and wash well before reuse. Wash eyes with clean running water for at least 15-20 minutes, or until irritation subsides. Seek immediate medical help.

Glycerin USP is a thick and colorless liquid with a sweet taste that is widely used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. It is usually added in food, beverage, medical, and cosmetic preparations as a humectant and stabilizer. Glycerin is soluble in water, ethanol, and acetone as well.

Glycerin Contamination with Diethylene Glycol

Glycerine and diethylene glycol are similar in smell, taste, and appearance. This poses serious risks as diethylene glycol and ethylene glycol are unacceptable toxic substances used often to adulterate the more expensive glycerin. Glycerin USP should be tested in order to demonstrate the absence of these substances. In 1997, the US FDA advised all US medicine manufacturers to test all batches of glycerine for possible contamination of diethylene glycol, this followed an incident of 100 fatal poisonings recorded in Panama from a Chinese factory deliberately falsifying records in order to export cheaper medicines using diethylene glycerol.

As a result, the FDA published “Testing of Glycerin for Diethylene Glycol” in May of the same year, which sets standards to prevent contamination of drugs from these substances. The Glycerin USP Monograph was further revised after receiving feedbacks from several industry groups and concerned companies about related timing and technical issues. The revision was approved by the USP Excipient Monograph 1 Expert Committee and became official last May 1, 2009, in accordance with Section 9.06(c) of the Rules and Procedures of the Council of Experts. In the revised monograph, levels of diethylene glycol and ethylene glycol should not reach more than 0.10% for each upon using methanol as the diluent and a sensitive gas-liquid chromatographic with flame ionization detection test.

Glycerin USP

Glycerin USP is a thick liquid that is colorless and sweet tasting. It has a high boiling point and freezes to a paste. Glycerin USP is commonly n soap and other beauty products like lotions, though it is also used, in the form of nitroglycerin, to create dynamite.

If the product is labeled USP it implies that it conforms to all the legal requirements of the FDA.  This product has been packaged in conformance to the principles outlined in FDA’s Good Manufacturing Practices. Some nations have compiled an official national pharmacopeia, similar in scope and is labeled as USP. There currently is a collaborative international program to harmonize the Glycerin monographs in the USP and in the European Pharmacopeia.

Some common applications for Glycerin USP packaged glycerin include cake icing, oral care, electronic cigarettes, vitamin formulations, desserts, and as a sweetener.
