I use this 3:1 as a dupe for Fix+ and I have finally figured out a foundation routine that gives me natural looking, gorgeous skin. Obviously this product doesn't work for everyone, but for me...

This stuff is best for heavy duty needs. My BF sails, and this is the go to for windburns. Day to day, it's heavy and has a hideous consistancy. For something run of the mill, I'd use something a...

Wow, I'm so happy I read these reviews! I used to have really dry skin, so for a while, after washing it, i would pat the water into my skin until it fully absorbed and then moisturized with...

Love! I keep a bottle on my bathroom counter and use it for everything. I have oily skin on my face and dry skin everywhere else and I and don't like moisterizers that are too heavy/waxy. ...

I was surprised at the low ratings for glycerin. It is an amazing product once you know exactly how to use it. Using it on its own is far too heavy for the skin so don't try that! Especially not on...

I've been reading the reviews and I think I know what the problem is with the bad reviews. I'm guessing that many of the people who reacted badly with glycerin used it undiluted. Undiluted glycerin...

I use glycerin mixed with water and EVOO on my curls at night to keep them looking hydrated in the morning. I just wake up, fluff, and go.

I have to join the ranks of those people who do not react well to glycerin. I'm paring down what I use to the absolute minimum - having good luck with unrefined avocado oil and pure aloe vera....

I mix a small amount with rosewater in a little spritz bottle. Hydrates and smells great and is very refreshing for the face, and anywhere else you spray it, even on hands. Spray it on the face and...

Should be a beauty staple for most. Dirt cheap and versatile - and it already *is* the main component for what, 90% of moisturizers out there. Uses: with rosewater, as moisturizer. Pure, to...

The reason I'm taking one off is acknowledging small subset of people who have reaction against glycerin, namely in form of little bumps. I suspect some of these little bumps aren't strictly...

As a moisturizer? No! I used it with sugar as a scrub, and it works amazingly. So one day, I read the bottle it says it's for severe dry skin, so I put it on my face for a day since I have some...

I have no problem using a tried and true product that contains gylcerin, but I'd never use straight glycerin anymore than I'd try to manufacture my own aspirin for the very fabulous aspirin mask. ...
