Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Glycerin is already naturally found in your skin. It helps moisturize and protect your skin.
A study from 2016 found glycerin to be more effective as a humectant than AHAs and hyaluronic acid.
As a humectant, it helps the skin stay hydrated by pulling moisture to your skin. The low molecular weight of glycerin allows it to pull moisture into the deeper layers of your skin.
Hydrated skin improves your skin barrier; Your skin barrier helps protect against irritants and bacteria.
Glycerin has also been found to have antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Due to these properties, glycerin is often used in wound and burn treatments.
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 ingredient is organic, colorless, odorless, and non-toxic.
Glycerin is the name for this ingredient in American English. British English uses Glycerol/Glycerine.

As an emulsifier, Tromethamine prevents oil and water ingredients from separating. This helps stabilize the product and elongate a product's shelf life. Tromethamine also makes a product thicker.
Tromethamine helps balance the pH level of a product. Normal pH level of skin is slightly acidic (~4.75-5.5). The acidity of our skin is maintained by our glands and skin biome. Being slightly acidic allows our skin to create an "acid mantle". This acid mantle is a thin barrier that protects our skin from bacteria and contaminants.
Oral Tromethanmine is an anti-inflammatory drug but plays the role of masking, adding fragrance, and/or balancing pH in skincare.

I got a sample of this and saw that it was FA safe and had no comedogenic or irritating ingredients so I tried it out. Only used it 4 times, but it was pretty obvious what a powerful humectant beta-glucan is. Just pure hydration and calm. Definitely buying the full size if I need the extra hydration. In this regard, it beats the skin1004 madagascar centella ampoule! (Still love that for beneficial Show more
Very hydrating, my must have product
Wow. I regret not buying this earlier. It's a somewhat thick serum that's very moisturizing and absorbs nicely into the skin,depending how much you use. I go heavy on this and put a full dropper on my face and it takes a while but it does sink in.
It has helped with my rosacea flareups and dry patches.
It's niacinamide free so it's a great hydrating Show more
