Glycerin

What it does: Humectant, Skin Conditioning, Skin Protecting, Solvent

Glycerin is already naturally found in your skin. It helps moisturize and protect your skin.

A study from 2016 found glycerin to be more effective as a humectant than AHAs and hyaluronic acid.

As a humectant, it helps the skin stay hydrated by pulling moisture to your skin. The low molecular weight of glycerin allows it to pull moisture into the deeper layers of your skin.

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.

Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract comes from the common Marigold plant. Marigolds contain flavonoids. Flavonoids are a group of substances found naturally in plants. They possess antioxidant and inflammation properties.

Antioxidants help fight free-radical molecules. Free-radical molecules are capable of damaging our cells and other genetic material. Antioxidants help stabilize free-radicals by donating extra electrons. This may help reduce the signs of aging.

Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract may help soothe your skin by reducing inflammation. Emerging studies show it inhibits NO production safely, therefore reducing inflammation.

Marigolds have been used in traditional medicine throughout Asia and Europe.

Not quite what I was looking for
I felt on the fence with this cleanser so I went through two bottles before deciding to move on. It’s not bad at all, but I guess I was expecting to see some sort of change in my skin with this, and I just didn’t. Hydration and moisture levels felt the same. My skin barrier felt the same. No change in acne or redness. This is just a cleanser. Which is fine (so I’m not gonna rate this super low), but I personally just want more out of cleanser. The consistency is nice and creamy, and although this has no added fragrance I would not call it fragrance free. Kinda smells like orange peels— I don’t think there are any citrus ingredients in this so I don’t know where that smell is coming from, but it’s a nice scent. It’s a good cleanser if you want to give it a try, but personally I think there are better options out there.
