Glycerin, a natural humectant found in plants, animals, and humans, is a colorless, odorless, and sweet-tasting liquid derived from fats and oils. It attracts and retains moisture from the air, making it an excellent ingredient for hydrating and moisturizing the skin. Glycerin also helps create a barrier on the skin, preventing moisture loss, and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

When using glycerin in DIY skincare, it is important to dilute pure glycerin with other ingredients or products, like rosewater or vitamin E, to prevent irritation.
