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.

My HG barrier serum! After I started incorporating this into my routine a couple months ago, my skin has seriously gotten so much better. I struggled with inflammation and irritation, and this serum calms down my skin so much. I love that it not only contains Centella extract, but also its active ingredients which make it more potent. It also contains amazing stuff like niacinamide, ceramide, and peptide. Will always always repurchase. (Literally need to restock asap)
