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.

I prefer this lotion for my night time routine and someone with primarily oily skin. This sunscreen is very hydrating and doesn’t feel heavy as the last step of my skin care routine. I wouldn’t recommend it for day time use because it definitely gives the skin a shiny look.

Not irritating, but pills no matter what
Not irritating for me, but sits in a weird film on the skin and doesn't sink in. If you touch your face at all you come away with little rolls of the moisturizer. Not enough for dry skin in a dry climate, and impossible to wear under makeup or anything else tbh, as soon as you start rubbing it in after 30 seconds of drying it's just rolling up and off the skin. I've tried it on it's own and mixed in other serums or oils and it ruins them too. I also have or had other skincare with ceramines and niacinamide and haven't seen this happen before. I'm a replacements only kind of skincare purchaser, and this is the first moisturizer I have to throw out instead of sucking up and working around. Idk, maybe it's the dryness of my climate, but I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. I normally love la roche posay (use a body moisturizer and a face cleanser from them with no complaints) but this one is a total miss.
