Glycerin for sagging skin: how to use it and what to expect

Glycerin is increasingly recommended for exactly this — and for good reason.

What is Glycerin

Glycerin is a time-tested humectant that draws water into the outer skin layer.

How Glycerin helps for sagging skin

Sagging occurs when the skin's support structure weakens and the contour blurs. This is exactly where Glycerin shines: glycerin is a time-tested humectant that draws water into the outer skin layer. As a result, used consistently, it gently improves the skin for sagging skin.

How to use it

• Cleanse with a gentle, non-stripping product.
• Apply glycerin to dry skin, starting 2–3 times a week.
• Seal with a moisturiser to support the barrier.
• Always use SPF 30+ in the morning.

Precautions
