Hello everyone!
Today I want to share
my number one secret for moisturised, plump, soft, and glowing skin. It's
neither a fancy face cream nor one of my usual DIY recipes. It's actually
something I never thought I'd use on my face at all.
Years ago I wrote
about the many benefits of vegetable glycerin in a post titled: Vegetable glycerin for glowing skin! and I also shared a recipe for a DIY make-up setting spray containing glycerin as a key ingredient. I've also been using
glycerin soap on and off in the shower for quite some time but I never used it
to wash my face with, until recently.
I had a new, unopened jasmine
glycerin soap in my bathroom and since my face was a little dry I
decided, on a hunch, to try the soap as a face cleanser. I used it at night
before I went to sleep and let me tell you I was shocked at how soft and
hydrated my skin was after just one use. The next morning my face was
visibly plumper and my skin was glowing, so I decided I should keep using it to see if the result were consistent.
Now, as you can see from the pictures below, I've been using the soap for a few weeks and I absolutely love it. This is by far the best face cleanser I've ever used, and let me tell you, I used quite a few high-end, very expensive products in the past.
So what is glycerin soap and why is it so effective?
Glycerin soap is a soap that contains glycerin. Vegetable glycerin is an odourless, clear liquid
with a thick syrup consistency. It is added to beauty products because of its ability to attract moisture and act as an
emollient. Glycerin soaps are recognisably different from other
soaps because they are translucent.
Vegetable glycerin
soap is vegan-friendly and a great option for people
with sensitive skin. Glycerin can help lock in the skin’s natural moisture and prevent over-drying. This may be especially beneficial for people who experience conditions like:
- acne
- eczema
- dermatitis
- dry skin
- psoriasis
- rosacea
At the same time,
glycerin is non-greasy. This means it’s a good choice for anyone with
oily or combination skin. Glycerin may also
have anti-ageing benefits. It
helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and other surface blemishes.
Glycerin soap is not
just a cleanser, it's a beauty treatment! I'm turning 35 next week (on
May 30th), and since glycerin soap has incredible benefits for ageing skin, I’m
confident it will remain a staple in my beauty routine in the coming years.
Have you ever used glycerin
soap? Would you consider using it now that you know a little bit more
about it? Leave a comment and let me know!
