What Is Glycerin?

Glycerin is all over social media right now, being praised as the next best thing in skincare. When you think of glycerin you may realize that you’ve seen this ingredient before, on food labels. Glycerin, also called glycerol, is an additive in food that can help products retain moisture and aid with digestion. But what is glycerin, exactly? Glycerin is a natural compound derived from vegetable oils. This ingredient can help protect skin from irritants and pollutants while also acting as a humectant. In other words, it delivers moisture to the skin. For those reasons — and a number of other skin benefits of glycerin — you’ll find this superstar ingredient in a lot of skincare products.

So, is glycerin a hero ingredient or simply overhyped? Read on at Neutrogena to learn more about glycerin for skin.
