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.

Butylene Glycol (or BG) is used within cosmetic products for a few different reasons:

  • It is a solvent, meaning that it helps to dissolve other ingredients. This also enhances the absorption of the product into one's skin.
  • It is a humectant, which means that it helps attract moisture into the skin.
  • It helps improve product application.

Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient. It is unlikely to irritate skin, and works well with pretty much all other ingredients.

Would marry this product.
Hydrating & moisturizing at the same time. If I have a small breakout it would be gone in 3 days max, sometimes even the next day. After focusing on hydration my skin doesn't suffer from hormonal acne anymore.

I loved how this toner/essence felt on my skin!! Just the right consistency, just the right glow…
But; I recently discovered that fermented ingredients (and their function) ABSOLUTELY increased the terrible eruption that occurred on my face. I’m sensitive to the fermented ingredients :/. It’s what makes so many of the Korean skincare products so very effective, and now I have to purge hundreds of $$$ worth of products. I am so very upset. I don’t know how I am going to achieve the glow I love so much now…
