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.

Niacinamide has emerged as an all-star ingredient due to its many benefits.

It is known to treat acne by reducing inflammation. It also helps fade dark-spots and strengthen the skin by promoting the growth of the ceramide barrier.

Other benefits include smoothing wrinkles and minimizing redness.

The cherry on top? Niacinamide can also help build keratin, a protein that keeps skin firm.

When incorporating niacinamide into your routine, look out for concentration amounts. Typically, 5% niacinamide provides benefits such as fading dark spots. However, if you have sensitive skin, it is better to begin with a smaller concentration.

Niacinamide can be mixed with other ingredients to boost benefits. For instance, it has shown to be effective when used with copper, folic acid, and zinc to treat acne.

I love having a misting product to apply before other products since moist skin is more absorbent. And I really wanted to include galactomyces ferment into my daily routine so this was the perfect fit (you can purchase it as a mist but it's more expensive so I just purchase it in a regular bottle to save money and then transfer it to a misting bottle). Galactomyces is the first ingredient listed on the product so I know it's a high concentration compared with other brands who have water listed as the first ingredient. And the price is much lower than most others, especially if you get it on Stylevana and don't mind waiting 3+ weeks for your product to arrive. This is a staple in my routine.

I really like this mist. The mist itself isn't the finest mist I've tried but it definitely isn't harsh. It's a nice pick me up throughout the day and also between my skincare products if I wait too long to apply the next step to remoisturize the skin. I like the smell as well. It gives me some added hydration if I find my skin is looking a little dry during the day. I was between this and Sioris and Sioris mist is finner that this.
