Wash your face with glycerin and facial cleanser

The cosmetic products we often use in daily life are facial cleansers. Many people think that facial cleansers can make the skin whiter, but adding a little glycerin to the facial cleanser will have a better effect. Due to the characteristics of glycerin itself, it can achieve the effect of moisturizing and cleansing after being integrated into the facial cleanser. Especially those who have drier skin can try it. If you persist for a long time, the effect will definitely be good.

1. The benefits of washing your face with glycerin and facial cleanser

Glycerin is propylene glycol, which is a water-like oil, so it is not as greasy as oil and is easily absorbed by the skin. Using it together with facial cleanser can have a good moisturizing effect, while removing greasiness from the skin and dissolving the oil on the skin surface in glycerin, so that there will not be a layer of oil on the face surface. It is recommended that people with oily skin can use glycerin and facial cleanser to wash their face. For people with dry skin, it may make the skin drier, so it is not advisable to wash it too often.

2. Why does washing your face with glycerin not make it feel tight?

Glycerin has good water solubility, so it can be easily washed off. Although it is not a surfactant, it can also act as a cleansing agent. Moreover, glycerin is quite mild, and irritation and allergies are very rare. In addition, glycerin has moisturizing effects, which can to a certain extent avoid the problem of decreased moisturizing ability of sebum after cleansing - this is an important reason why the skin will not feel tight after washing with this type of product.

3. Pure glycerin is not available

The chemical name of glycerol is "propylene glycol", which is extremely hygroscopic. Using glycerin for skin care in winter can keep your skin moisturized and soft. When glycerin is rubbed on the skin, it can form a glycerin film, which isolates the air from entering, making it difficult for the moisture in the skin to evaporate. It can also absorb moisture in the air to moisturize the skin, effectively preventing the skin from drying out. When using glycerin for skin care, you must be careful: do not use pure glycerin. Most of the glycerin sold in stores is pure glycerin. When using, pure glycerin should be added to 40% - 50% distilled water or cold boiled water, mixed evenly before use. Do not use on broken skin because glycerin can irritate broken areas.

4. Is the glycerin in facial cleanser harmful to the skin?

After all, they all contain chemical ingredients to some extent, and using these products too early is not good for the skin. Although facial cleansers contain glycerin, the amount is very small and will not cause any harm, so you can use it with confidence.
