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.

Very moisturising, only needed a bit to apply. I freaking love the smell even though I hate fragrance, the smell very luxury scent without those perfume scent. Is good. I'm sensitive skin and it doesn't affect my skin at all
