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.

I gave in to the hype and bought the I'm From Rice toner even though I already had this one...what a mistake. The TYF toner absorbs on my fussy, oily skin so much more beautifully and quickly while also not leaving that weird oily residue the I'm From one does. I suppose that one is better suited to dry skins while this toner is also great for oily/combo folks like me.
Love it so much <3
It's a super hydrating toner, it's denser than an aqueous toner, but the skin absorbs it very quickly and it leaves the sensation of a serum. The skin really becomes brighter and reduces darkness, the results are incredible.

Repurchase, repurchase, repurchase!
I have very sensitive acne prone combination skin with multiple deep acne scars, and it's an absolute staple of my skincare routine.
I'm on my 4th ampoule right now, and absolutely recommend it if you want to get rid of acne scars without ruining your skin barrier with more aggressive ingredients, but you have to commit to it!
