Glycerin has also been found to have antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Due to these properties, glycerin is often used in wound and burn treatments.

Literally the ONLY product that has been able to clear up my bacne, buttne, ingrown hairs, EVERYTHING I have been struggling with for over a decade. I trust it with my life. P.S. I use it before and after shaving with an exfoliating glove (just a tip for my folliculitis, KP, Strawberry Legged , Body Acne gals)
Bye backne
Pricey, but effective
Lathers nicely and you will need to let it rest before rinsing it to have full effect
Somehow doesn't sting, but use it every day and it will cause redness and acne from over exfoliation : better use it as a treatment on targeted area every other day
pH is pretty acidic too, so be careful if your skin easily has issues with that
