Glycerin skin care

What is glycerin?

Glycerin, also called glycerol, is a natural substance found in the stratum corneum (the top layer of the skin). Glycerine can also be found in the fats of plants or animals. This is where the glycerin from our range comes from.

Glycerin has the unique ability to attract and retain water from the environment and the underlying skin layers. It helps the skin to remain moist, soft and supple. Therefore an indispensable ingredient in moisturizing skin products.

The importance of hydrated skin

Hydration is the basis of radiant and healthy skin. A lack of moisture causes dryness, flaking and the formation of wrinkles. Exactly what we want to avoid.

Keeping the skin moist protects the outer layer of the skin and keeps the skin supple. Hydrated skin provides a firmer, smoother skin texture. Not only will fine lines and wrinkles be less visible, the skin will become tighter and more even.

Glycerin is an effective means of moisturizing the skin. It is not without reason that this ingredient is often added facial creams, facial care and lip care.

How do you use glycerin?

Glycerine is not only a powerful agent, but can also be used for various purposes. We have listed a number of options for you:

• Apply glycerin to dry and cracked areas to soften the skin
• Add glycerin to bath water for extra soft skin. Especially nice in the dry months
• Keeps lips soft
• Mix glycerin with water to make a hydrating toner. After cleansing, apply this mix to your face with a cotton pad
• Glycerin can be added to homemade facial masks, serums and lotions

Tip: limit the use of pure glycerin directly on the skin. Use the pure form only on dry areas or process with other ingredients.

Glycerin for every skin type

Glycerin is suitable for all skin types due to its moisturizing ability. For those with dry skin, glycerin provides deep hydration, while for oily skin it helps balance moisture levels without clogging pores.

The mild properties of glycerin make it an ideal remedy for sensitive skin. For older skin, glycerin is a good addition to the skin care routine. In addition to hydrating the skin, Glycerin also reduces wrinkles and lines on the face.

Is glycerin harmful?

Glycerin is not harmful to the skin. This natural substance comes from plants and animals and can be used safely. To prevent you from having an allergic reaction to the glycerin, it is wise to first test a little on a piece of skin. If problems or irritations occur, you can easily rinse it off.
