Please tell me i have the right USP Glycerin

[Tyler2.0]

got it at walmart in the skin care section right above the calimine lotion

99.5% glycerin anhydrous

yeah, you got the right one..... but i am sure that there will be others to tell you its not and you shouldnt use it. i have that exact bottle and i have noticed nothing odd about it. yes i thought it was strange to find it in the skincare aisle but from what i have read here lots of people use it and it is the same thing as the wiltons. take care and happy vaping!

My impression is that little oval in the upper right hand corner says USP. If that's the case, I think you're good.

 

[happily]

It is definitely USP grade which should be good but there has been discussion on using vegetable glycerine only so make your own decision

Some on here have said that brand leaves a waxy aftertaste in your mouth and may clog your atomizers... I only use VG so I'm not sure but it's food grade so it wont kill ya

it's not and you shouldn't use it ( I couldn't resist, but I do use VG)

well basically as of right now im just experimenting.. mixing it up with some liquid that came with my kit (its just regular tobacco flavor. 16mg/ml strength.


im not using it strait up. it seems way too thick for that

Whether you buy it from Walmart, CVS, Michaels, or the health food store, it's all packaged by Humco. You're OK.

thanks for the fast replies everyone. already i noticed that i no longer get the "burn" feel in the back of my throat when i use this generic kit liquid

Wiltons is made by Humco too. Same stuff, different label. Check the label. it says "Manufactured for Wilton Industries, Inc." It doesn't say "Made by Wiltons". This is done in all the packaging plants.

You're right. Humco is not the only manufacturer in the world, but it's hard to tell who makes most brands. It takes a bit of research. Bottom line is, it the label don't say "Made By", you have to search to find out who is actually manufacturing it. I work in the packaging industry, and you'd be surprised at how many different "Brands" all come out of the same plant.

for Information only once again................wasn't trying to disagree with any previous threads and was thinking the vegetable part might be the difference

was just pointing it out for future readers

Whether you disagree or not, that's valuable information. Here's something else I just found. Wiltons Glycerin comes out of Indonesia.

We should rename this thread "Fun facts about VG"

as long as it's not fun facts about VD
