I have some high nic PG that I want to cut with VG, and this is what I found in the local health food store: NOW brand 100% vegetable glycerine. It's marketed as a skin care product, but the label says "The vegetable glycerine contained in this product is considered food grade." It does not say USP. Will this work or should I look elsewhere? Many thanks in advance for your insights/experience.
Is this VG okay to use?

I would only use it if it said USP myself, = http://www.usp.org/USPVerified/pharmaceuticalIngredients/

If it is not labeled USP I wouldn't suggest it. You can often find VG at the drug stores in the same area of the store as the alcohol or I have seen it at Walmart/Michael's/Joanne's in the cake decorating area (wilton's brand)
Thanks so much for the advice, link, and where-to-look-for info, mwa & Carrie. I couldn't find VG at Walgreen's but will try Walmart.
...often sold under the "Humco" brand name...listed as Glycerine USP.............................
Any pharmacy or Walmart look in the band aid/ first aid section. It is next to the isopropyl alcohol and is called Glycerine. You can also buy it in health food stores but they charge a premium.
Good Luck, Vapoor.

At Rite Aid or CVS, the Glycerin USP Skin Protectant, 6 ounce bottle, is a HUMCO relabel, fine to use. Near the bandaids, clear, ingredients are only Glycerin 99.5%, possibly followed by (anhydrous). I've been using it for over a year.
