Sorbitol is an alcohol obtained by hydrogenation of glucose, followed by reduction of aldehyde compounds.

Sorbitol is also called sorbitol or glucite. Sorbitol, like its sister glycerin, is a good humectant. In addition, it has an astringent effect and acts as a thickener.

It can be found in plants, algae, and starchy fruits. It is often used as a sweetener. It belongs to harmless food additives (E 420). Used in the production of ascorbic acid.

Sorbitol comes in liquid form and is also available in crystalline form. In this form, it interacts well with powdered ingredients.

One such combination is sorbitol and sodium bicarbonate. The latter may sometimes be called "bicarbonate of soda". In reality, it is tea or baking soda.

The price of sodium bicarbonate is known to be low and you can easily buy sodium bicarbonate. Therefore, such a “duet” of two components can be found in many medications.

The use of sorbitol in the food industry is due to the fact that it is a good substitute for sugar, especially in diet drinks and foods. It is found in toothpastes, chewing gums, candies, and soft drinks.

With its help, manufacturers not only give products a sweet taste, but also prevent drying and early hardening of products.

In medicine, sorbitol is used to treat constipation by using it as a laxative. It is involved in the manufacture of capsules for various drugs, it is added to cough syrups, and is also used to produce vitamin C.

For the cosmetic industry, two of its main properties are important:

thickening of the product; skin hydration.

Skin hydration occurs due to the fact that sorbitol retains moisture, and in addition, it can “pull” it and accumulate it from the external environment, especially if the air humidity is very high.

Its moisturizing properties are enhanced when combined with other moisturizing actives.

The price of sorbitol always remains very pleasant. You can buy sorbitol in almost any online store for soap making or home cosmetics.

Sorbitol is used to care for:

oral cavity; hair (damaged, dry, thin); dry skin.

In the production of industrial soap, sorbitol becomes a cheaper substitute for glycerin. Such raw materials are more economically profitable.

For the cosmetic industry, sorbitol is a safe component. It is added to a wide variety of products and decorative cosmetics.

Sorbitol is used to make:

soap; toothpastes, deodorants; aftershave lotions; dry hair care products; shampoos (including children's); moisturizing creams, masks.

In the production of cosmetics, sorbitol has received positive reviews. It gives the product a very pleasant, soft and velvety texture.
