Science & Benefits

Glycerin is the 'Gold Standard' humectant, naturally present in the skin's own moisturizing factor. It mimics the skin's natural moisture balance and has been clinically shown to accelerate barrier repair. It is zero-comedogenic (Rating 0). In an acne routine, it is the essential counter-balance to drying treatments, ensuring the epidermis remains flexible and hydrated without any risk of causing follicular blockages.
