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.

Some bad memories...
I used this for less than a week about a year ago and gosh... it turned the skin around my eyes red and made me look like a raccoon - a painful experience. Still remember the burning feeling that lasted for a few days. Definitely nothing for my sensitive skin around the eye area.
