Great products and exceptional service.
Excellent quality
Amazing to use for body care products
Recently our brand made the decision to go vegan, which meant finding plant and vegetable derivatives and recipes. A LOT of recipes called for Glycerin and I'm so happy that Heirloom offers an inexpensive option, that allows for constant repurchasing without feeling guilty about using expensive products for recipe experiments. I only get Glycerin from here now and find the quality superb!
