    For those of you looking, I bought my glycerin
    at CVS Pharmacy in the skin care aisle.

    I think the glycerine is inhibiting the razor burn I normally get ATG on my neck. Good job

    Chris,
    Some MSDSs declare glycerin to be a skin irritant and some don't. Like a lot of other things, individual sensitivities can vary. You might just be overly sensitive. You should work on that.
