    Been using this for years in my special effects makeup and homemade mixing medium but after reading all the reviews, decided to give it a try as a moisturizer. I washed my face, applied my toner...

    I have long used 1:3 glycerin: water ratio as a mixing medium for eyeshadows, but never on my face alone. But when the dry cold weather + over exfoliating had severly dried my skin - I tried many...

    Glycerin is a lifesaver for my skin. My skin is sensitive and acne-prone, yet prone to dehydration, and most creams leave my skin oily but still tight-ish feeling - and frequently a broken out...

    This is an excellent addition to my moisturizing routine! Vitamin A has left my skin dry and irritated and my lightweight moisturizer just wasn't helping enough, so I decided to give glycerin a...

    I deleted my original review and wish to put a new one in here for this product, b/c my opinion drastically changed. I gave this more than a fair chance. In fact the first couple weeks that I...

    This neither improved nor hurt my skin. I mix a drop with my regular moisturizer, and I really don't see/feel a difference. I'll probably keep using it to use it up.

    I can't believe I have reviewed this yet! I've been using this for about 1.5 months. About 1.5 months ago I had been using retin-a for a little over a month and my skin looked DISGUSTING. Before...

    I really wish MUA would put an option that says maybe when it comes to buying products again, because I am on the fence about using glycerin as a moisturizer. I bought my 100% vegetable...

    I have seen glycerin listed as an ingredient in so many products and have always seen it as a zero on comedogenicity lists. I picked up some 100% pure glycerin at my local health food store. 4oz...

    I was lemming this forever, until I finally found a bottle in the first aid section of Rite Aid for $4. Overall, it is a very useful product to have on hand. Not HG material, but good. My...

    I started breaking out in September last year. I had never, not even in my teens, had acne on my cheeks. I was scared. I knew you should never pop them so I tried to wait them out. But I found that...

    I'm updating my review and dropping my rating down even lower. My skin seems to be very reactive to this stuff. So much so that I even have to scan ingredient lists on shampoos and conditioners...
