In cosmetics, glycerin is usually derived from plants such as soybean or palm. However, it can also be sourced from animals, such as tallow or animal fat.

This has a nice texture, smell and feel on the skin, but makes my feet itchy SO BAD it wakes me up at night, weird stuff. Probably ok to use once a week or so, scrub the skin when it starts to peel and otherwise use something more hydrating that doesn't contain BHA.
