Liquorice Root Glycerite is a gentle, alcohol-free botanical extract made from peeled liquorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) in a base of vegetable glycerine and purified water. It captures naturally occurring plant compounds such as glycyrrhizin that make liquorice root popular in comfort-focused skincare. This water-soluble glycerite is especially useful in calming formulas designed to support the look of clear, even-toned skin.
