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.

These are fantastic, lovely, and calming. Very wasteful, but I have adored using these - I received them as a free gift. If only they came as multiples in a refillable box, or something.

This is the best moisturizer. A little bit lighter but still heavy enough for nighttime.
