I’m currently using the Missha Time Revolution First Essence 5x but I wouldn’t be a product junkie if I wasn’t also wondering if I’m missing out by not using SK-II’s essence or the similar AMOREPACIFIC essence. I’m wondering if there’s anyone who has tried all three and can weigh in before I drop lord of money on the other two to try for myself 🤣. 

If it helps, I’m 35 and trying to combat some fine lines, uneven texture, and my skin is very dehydrated and (I think?) dry.

SK-II vs Missha vs AMOREPACIFIC?

It just wasn’t hydrating enough, even with a sleeping mask on top.

Got a couple of deluxe samples of this cream with a couple of my Missha orders. The packaging is pretty, and i like that the sample is in a tube. The cream has a nice texture. 

I LOVE this essence! It is a little thicker, so i use it as a second essence, but it is SO hydrating. I prefer applying it just pouring some into my hand ans patting it directly on my face. You only need a very small amount for your whole face so the bottle will last a long time. The packaging is cute - love the simple design and the pink color accents. Doesn’t break me out, and i feel my skin is less hydrated if i skip an application. Usually i just apply one layer but occasionally do multiple if i am feelinng extra dry. Originally got this in a travel size in a kit and ordered the full size when i was like half way through because i never want to be without this. HG product for sure.

Not moisturizing enough. Within minutes of applying this over a sample night cream, my cheeks were already feeling tight. 

The texture was nice! I rewlly wanted to like this product.

I actually used this toner when i had oily skin but it was still too drying and over-stripping. Stung my skin. Not unusual for my skin to feel like that now but at the time…not many products did that to me so this was a suprise.

Not much 😢. I wanted to love it but just couldn’t. 

This product is heavy without acrually feeling very moisturizing.
