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.

nice to apply, very sticky, the skin literally sticks together, pilling under makeup and other skincare
Nivea Double Effect Waterproof Eye Make-Up Remover 19 ingredients
Meh, not gonna repurchase.
It does remove eye make up but it’s very very oily on the skin, which can cause irritation and dry skin around the eye later on. Also, it makes my eyes burn sometimes…but it does not break me out. I will not rebuy it though.
Edit: it removed my lipstick like nothing else (pretty much in one move and without smudge). I might rebuy it only for that though, but it’s still a very drying out Show more
