I probably add half and half. A squirt and a squirt. haha

It can feel a little tacky if you add too much which is fine with me but some may not like that feeling.

 

Not an exact measurment thing. More or less. Just play around with it and I guess it would also depend on the type of cream you use and it's glycerin content.Smiley Happy

I hope it helps you too!

 

I think It's helped repair my moisture barrier, which has helped with my overall complexion including a reduction in crinkles and wrinkles.

You can make a hydrating mist that can be used anytime. Makes a good setting spray also.

 

- 1 teaspoon glycerin (adjust that amount if you need more or less...experiment a little)

- 10 drops liquid green tea extract

 

Add that to a 2-ounce misting bottle and fill with water. Green tea extract is a great antioxidant. Find it on Amazon. Comes in a dropper bottle. It's got a little bit of glycerin in it and it's food grade.

Oh, I love that. Good idea!

I think I'll give that a try as well.

Did you notice a lessening in the deepness of your lines when you use the glycerin? My " 11 " lines are not as deep this morning 🌅🎶🎶🎶
Happy 😊

@everyone using micellar water
Does this remove makeup adequately? I have a bottle but it doesn't seem to completely remove all eye makeup. Thanks

@Midmod  - I've had that issue with Micellar Water too so quit using it as a makeup remover.  I don't wear waterproof mascara either so that can't be the problem.

Thanks for posting this. My undereye area is a source of ongoing trial and error 😕

@Midmod and @GingerHead  - Was going to wait until my next Amazon order to include this but decided to get it now.  Just ordered it.  Hoping it helps with my undereye area.  Checked the ingredients of my current eye cream and glycerin was one of the first few ingredients but will try this anyway.

OK, you convinced me to buy some on Amazon. The price is not high for a 16 oz bottle. I can use it on all of my dry body areas.
