Introduction to Glycerin and its Benefits for Pimples

For a long time, glycerin has been essential in skincare products. Many everyday skincare products, such as moisturisers and face washes, contain glycerin for pimples. However, you may not have been aware of this until now.

Glycerin is a moisture-absorbing substance that is beneficial to your skin. Moreover, glycerin is here to save the day—and your skin—whether you have oily, dry, or even acne-prone skin. So, discover how to use glycerin for pimplesand how it moisturises oily or dry skin and dull skin!

What Causes Pimples?

Among the main factors contributing to pimples are:

• Germs build up in the skin's pores.
• Skin that generates an excessive amount of oil.
• Oil, dead skin cells, and dust particles clog hair follicles.
• Overactivity of a particular class of hormone called "androgen."

The typical areas where pimples develop are the forehead, shoulders, upper back, chest, and cheeks. Certain body parts often contain the greatest sebaceous (oil) glands.

How Does Glycerin Help with Pimples?

Glycerin for pimples is oil-free and non-comedogenic despite its strong moisturising and hydrating qualities! Given this, it works well as a moisturiser—even for oily skin prone to acne. Also, all of you with oily skin, get ready to load your hearts and e-carts with glycerine bliss!

Additionally, it inhibits clogged pores, gives your face a silky shine, and calms and relaxes existing acne to stop it from spreading! So, prepare to incorporate glycerin into your skin-pampering routine this hot-weather season.

Different Ways to Use Glycerin Products for Pimples

For use as a facial cleanser

Add two to three drops of glycerin to your usual cleanser and proceed with your facial cleansing routine to avoid itching. If you have dehydrated skin, this will stop the tight, itchy feeling that generally occurs after washing your face. You can also choose to opt for cleansers that already have glycerin as an ingredient, like The Pink Foundry’s Clearing & Calming Acne Face Wash, to make your routine easier.

Step-by-step Guide on Applying Glycerin on Face for Pimples

Here’s how to apply glycerin on the face for pimples:

1. To ensure you won't experience a negative allergic reaction to glycerin, do a patch test on a tiny, discrete area of your skin before using it on your face.
2. Start by washing your face. Use a mild cleanser to eliminate makeup, debris, and pollutants. Using a fresh towel, pat the surface of your skin dry.
3. In a clean vessel, blend the diluted glycerin. Add just a few droplets of glycerin to increase hydration in your usual serum or moisturiser.

Tips:

• Apply the glycerin to your face using clean hands. Avoid the region around the eyes as much as possible.
• Use upward and outward motions to massage the skincare product into your skin gently.
  Pay attention to the typically drier areas.
• After that, gently pat your face to facilitate the glycerin's absorption.
• You can use your usual moisturiser, sunscreen, or other skincare products after that, based on your skincare regimen.

Frequency of Use: Depending on how much your skin needs, apply glycerin-based products only once or twice a day. Usually, it works best when you add it to the skincare routine in the morning or evening.

Be sure to test glycerin before putting it straight to your face or even combining it with your skincare products and packs if you have sensitive skin or serious allergies.

Should you use glycerin on your face and get unexpected breakouts or rashes, please wash your face and discontinue use right away.
