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.

Best cleanser ever. Deeply and effectively cleanses while providing exfoliation that’s gentle enough to use for post-procedure patients.
