Glycerin

What is Glycerin?

Glycerin is a humectant organic compound used in skincare due to its remarkable moisturizing and softening properties. It is a natural sugar alcohol present in the beauty world for its ability to retain moisture and enhance the skin barrier function.

Its chemical structure consists of three hydroxyl groups that have a high affinity for water. This means it can attract and retain water in the skin, keeping it hydrated and soft.

It is present in moisturizers, serums, body lotions, facial cleansers, and shower gels. It can be used on all skin types, from dry to oily, and is easily applied by gently massaging it onto clean, dry skin.
