Battling dry skin? Use glycerine


Battling dry skin? Use glycerine

All of us struggle to keep our skin and hair healthy during the winters. Glycerine, the colourless and odourless carbon compound, is just the right thing.

Being a humectant that attracts water from the surroundings, here are some beauty benefits of glycerine.

Skin: When diluted with few drops of water,glycerine keeps your skin moisturised. Mix glycerine and honey in equal amounts, and apply this solution on your face or body. Leave it on for a while and then wash with the cold water. It helps you get rid of skin dryness.


Hair care: Hair is known to get frizzy during winters, due to low moisture levels. Mix equal amounts of glycerine and water and dab it on your hair, this works as an excellent conditioner. It also helps manage curly hair.

Eyes: Using glycerine as an under-eye cream at night, helps get rid of dark circles and leaves your under-eye skin fresh and smooth. It is better than most regenerating creams available in the market. 

Injuries: Glycerine helps in accelerating the healing process of injuries, be it big wounds or just bruises. It creates a repair system for tissues and cells.
