Glycerin is a fundamental and multifunctional humectant widely used in personal care, cosmetics, and household chemical formulations. As a versatile skin-conditioning agent, glycerin helps maintain optimal moisture levels in the skin by forming a protective hydrating layer, preventing transepidermal water loss. Its hygroscopic properties make it particularly valuable in moisturizers, cleansers, hair care products, and soaps, where it enhances product performance while improving skin and hair softness.
