I spritz my face & neck with toner & while it's still wet I work several drops of glycerin into my skin. I apply it to my legs & arms after showering while my skin's still damp. A friend tried it & hates it. She says it feels sticky & it kind of does but my skin has never looked as nice or felt as soft.

nope. I don't use lots of skin products. CTyankee Aug 2024 #5

Perhaps some other ingredient in the formula bucolic_frolic Aug 2024 #6

That could be. Maybe my primary care doc can help. CTyankee Aug 2024 #8
