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.

Mostly silicone! Not worth the price.
If you look at the ingredients list, the second ingredient is dimethicone - or silicone. This causes the cream to sit heavily on the face and not absorb well. This is okay if you want a heavy, occlusive product to seal in moisture; however, at $80 a pop (and silicone being a cheap ingredient), this is not worth the price.
