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.

I tried using this mask after extracting some of my acnes. The redness and inflamation was gone after I removed the sheet, not 100% gone but like 60-70% subsided. I can’t give it 5 stars bc the ingredients is full of fungal acne trigger so it’s risky for me to use regularly, but it is a really good product.
