Рет қаралды 1,235
Күн бұрынGlycerin is probably one of the first ingredients that chemists learn to work within formulation. In fact, we happen to call this the Frank’s Red Hot of skincare because the industry really puts that sh** in everything! But despite its economical, functional status, this ingredient has really risen in the ranks in terms of trendy ingredients! In this episode, we review glycerin’s benefits and discuss whether or not glycerin deserves the title of best hydrating ingredient in skincare.

You can find urea in many drugstore moisturisers in Europe especially from German brands. Very effective! I love urea hand creams a lot!

can you make an episode on aloe vera? 🙏 it seems like a super interesting ingredient with lots of added benefits next to hydration but no one seems to talk about it so I don't know if the benefits are actually true or just myths

Ooo can you please talk about KP or sebum plugs, why, and how to fix? Could not digesting fats trigger or food sensitivities?

NMFs stand for natural moisturizing factors - these are molecules like lactic acid, urea, PCA salts that are naturally found in your skin's water-grabbing system

Is there anything called over-hydration, and can you make your skin 'lazy'?
@ChemistConfessions 4 ай бұрын
nah that's kind of a myth. usually more of the mistake comes from not balancing humectants with emollients and occlusives to properly seal moisture in
