Humectant, Skin Conditioning, Skin Protecting

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.

Usage: 2 months (AM + PM)
Skin type | Mixed to oily skin. Skin tone is very light. The main concerns are clogged pores, and inflamed white spots.

This cream integrated my morning and night routine for the past 2 months, producing visible changes. The application is a very pleasant experience as the texture is very light and fluid and absorbs quickly, not leaving any residue. The skin Show more

This was SO close to working for me. I suspect either the triglycerides were too comedogenic for me or that I have a niacinamide sensitivity.
