Glycerin: what it does & who it's for
A classic ingredient that keeps skin soft and comfortably hydrated.
What it is
A classic ingredient that keeps skin soft and comfortably hydrated. In short, it's one of the hydrator ingredients Vaiya's engine understands and can match to your skin and goals.
How to use it
Introduce Glycerin slowly — every other day at first — and give your skin a couple of weeks to adjust before increasing frequency. Patch test on a small area first, and if you layer several actives, add one at a time so you can tell what's working.
