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.

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.

no more breakouts?
i honestly don't know what to make of this product because i used it in 2021 for about.. 6 months?? i was very generous since it was a small bottle. back then, i had extreme hormonal acne and a new pimple would emerge every day and i absolutely hated it. this toner lowkey lived up to the hype, but i wish packaging was better because the bottle did leak when received. they should also make larger bottles

i wouldn't say i had a drastic, life-changing experience with this product but i did see some changes. the toner had a water-like texture, no odor and was soooo nice on the skin. it definitely helps with redness and inflammation and boosted the effects of the CosRx Good Morning pH Gel Cleanser. it instantly felt soothing and my acne was "tamed." it wouldn't necessarily get rid of pimples or blemishes so you'd probably need another product for that, but it DID work wonders in preventing new breakouts.

Advertised to help with your pores but did not help in the slightest. It's fine as a normal toner, but at the price point, without having the extra advertised benefit, it is not really worth it.
