The Power of Glycerin

Glycerin promotes skin elasticity

  • Glycerin, also known as glycerol, is a widely used ingredient in skin care products and is valued for its numerous benefits for the skin.
     
  • Glycerin is present in all natural fats, wether animal or vegetable. It is found naturally in the body and is one of the many substances in skin that helps maintain a healthy look and feel, defending against dryness.
     
  • In cosmetics, glycerine is a humectant (skin moisturizer) that is obtained from vegetable oil.
     
  • After application, glycerine penetrates deep into the stratum corneum, binds moisture and is not easily washed out.

Wound healing
It supports cell regeneration and promotes the repair of skin damage caused by dryness, small cuts or cracks, for example.
