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.

As a makeup remover it does it's job and it is cheep too but that's about it.

The instructions say that after using it you don't have to rinse it off but it leaves this weird sticky but dry feeling to your skin after usage.

I also clense after I use micellar water so I end up rinsing off the vitamin C. So what is the point off getting sth fancy when normal micellar water works just as fine Show more
