Ingredients Explained

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.

New HG moisturizer?! I’m about to finish my first bottle and just ordered a second. Great ingredients. Absorbs well. Still relatively light but much more hydrating than the others I’ve tried in my quest to find a good moisturizer (2 Puritos, Authentic Ego, La Theorie, SebaMed, etc). Has never pilled despite trying it in lots of different combinations. Doesn't seem to contribute to acne or ccs. Has Show more
