Community Rating: Loved

Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.

You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. Talk about multi-purpose! If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

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.

Though Caprylyl Glycol is an alcohol derived from fatty acids, it is not the kind that can dry out skin.

This ingredient is also used as a preservative to extend the life of products. It has slight antimicrobial properties.

Love the product but can’t stand the packaging. There’s not a lot of product and the lid is almost impossible to remove. I don’t even close the lid because it’s so annoying to get off. Never thought I would discontinue a profit due to packaging but I won’t buy this again.

I actually adore the way this product makes my skin feel but the packaging is comical. Its near impossible to pop the lid off so I just leave it...

I actually adore the way this product makes my skin feel but the packaging is comical. Its near impossible to pop the lid off so I just leave it halfway on. I thought I had finished up the product because no more product was coming through the pump but NO! I unscrewed the lid and there’s still 2/3 product left. I like this but not enough to repurchase because it’s so annoying to use. I’ll repurchase after they fix their packaging. Never thought packaging would deter me from a product but here we are!
