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.

I’ve been using this for maybe 3 years now as my everyday toner. Great with or without layering.

Perhaps my first dabble with niacinamide, it slowly evened up and brightened my skin tone. Does a little bit of hydration, moisturising, evening skin tone, brightening. A simple all-rounder for the less risk-taking but there are definitely more effective stuff out there.

It’s very gentle, a slow going change but it was a level up from my previous toners. It was my staple as my skin started to stabilise through my early 20s from thin dehydrated oily skin to mostly normal type skin so if I had to pick just one toner to bring with me at the time, it would be this one.

However, this is not enough for dry and dehydrated skin. Medical issues ruined my body and my skin abruptly changed to being constantly dehydrated, super dry, extremely irritated, rashed up, dull, uneven, and SAGGING. There were prominent wrinkles on my forehead and my face looked so sunken that I completely lost the youth in my face within 2 months. What I saw in the mirror was the wake up call on just how devastated my health has become. If you ever reach that point, this will not be enough. Hence, I have been using this less because I need more hydration and moisture, but I can still come back to it on the days when my skin is more okay.

I breaks my heart to say this since I have relied on this for years, but I don’t think I will be buying another bottle after this one. My skin has just changed too much and it’s no longer the one for me 🥺
