Formulated with 93.1% lotus seed extract rich in amino acids and linoleic acid, this essence drenches skin with hydration to maintain a natural oil and water balance.
The Primera Miracle Seed Essence is infused with the energy of lotus seed to translucent and radiant skin. To brighten and improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. This essence contains all the energy generated upon germination, creating radiant, and glowing skin.
This essence comes in a transparent glass bottle, you have to be careful to handle it, don't let it fall and break. This essence comes with a box of cotton pad and instructions for recommended to use it with cotton pad. The texture is runny and no sticky and it has no scent.
I use this in two ways. The first I tried to apply this essence with my hands and but I feel like something is missing. Then I tried using with cotton pad obviously I found it works best when applied with cotton pad. When I apply this with cotton pad, this essence is like seeping into the bottom of my skin deeper and making my dry skin super duper hydrated and so amazing like being showered with a waterfall of hydration that continues to flow without stopping.
This is my best discovery of the essence in 2019. I feel it gives a lot of deep hydration to my skin which makes my skin super plump, smooth and also soothes my reddnes. I also noticed that this essence helped improve the texture of my skin becoming smoother, pores appear smaller and brighter. Overall, my skin really loves this essence, my skin looks glowy, very healthy and clean. Unfortunately it is kinda pricey but it really deserves to be in your skin care routine.
The price is quite expensive

My thoughts:
How come no one speaks about this essence? This is such an underrated product! I love this essence a lot. My skin feels smooth and supple everytime I use this. It is lightweight and gets absorbed quickly. It has no scent and no irritations everytime I use this product. I use this as my am and pm routine right after applying my toner.. This is the best essence I have ever tried so far. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND EVERYONE TO TRY THIS! 5/5 ⭐ rating.

It's a great product. I like it. It has very lightweight texture but not so watery. It hydrates my skin.
Since the price is not so affordable, i think nothing special about it.

This product is one of liah yoo's holy grail toner/essence, and I'm really eager to try this product but it is so pricey here in ph but thank God there's one seller in an online shopping sell the sample size of this product for 170+ pesos so I bought two 50ml.
🌾 Highlight Ingredient:
- 93% Lotus seed extract (but in a reformulation I think it is not 93%)
- 2% niacinamide
🌾 Texture/scent:
- the texture of this is slightly viscous like most of essence.
- the smell of this is like a faint flower scent.
🌾 My experience:
The moment that I try this product I said "ok, nothing special" it feels like a normal toner to me. But as I use it for straight week I see how it hydrates my skin, it slightly brightens my complexion, in that point I already knew why this product is a holy grail for some. And I even more appreciate it when I try to use other products and it really irritates my skin the next day, and when I apply this essence on my irritated skin it immediately calms my skin, as in the moment that this essence touch my skin, ughhh I feel relieved. And as I continuously using it, it strengthen my skin barrier, giving me a healthy looking skin but sadly, the sample size where I bought this, is not available😭.
🌾Final thoughts:
I have nothing bad to say to this product, because it is sooooo good! I really enjoyed using this product. It also suits to all skin types. And I want to repurchase it, as soon as I have extra money, well, this product is too pricey for a poor like me. Hahah.

Liah yoo made me buy it! I'm not a fan of a watery essence, i prefer the one with more viscosity, but this essence has change my mind. I dissatisfied at first since this essence texture is exactly like water! I had a prejudice this product would do nothing. But i was wrong. After few days i noticed a subtle glow from my skin, it became clearer and more radiant. This is the first time i found an essence could do this much effect on my skin.
This essence is rich in amino acid and polyphenols (from lotus seed extract), helps to increase hydration, smooth texture, and improve skin tone. And last but not least, it also calmed my irritated skin. I noticed how my skin is so well behaved when i use this 😄
The price is expensive. To safe money of course i'd choose to buy the small size

I actually think this product is quite good. It ranks up there for me among other essences. Fast absorbing and skin softening.
The only issue is the price. I can't quite justify the price since there are many great essences in the market.

It hydrates my skin well, it helps in relieving my skin on my bad skin days. But take note that it is not something that heals the acnes. It is more like letting the sensitive skin breathe aka calming the skin, making it more stable and less inflamed. Like an essence should be, it is watery, runny and feels light on the face. Not sticky yet has a very slight texture. This definitely suits all skin types. I see minimal changes but this helped with brightening spots on my skin and I don’t really expect to get a smoother skin texture in just 3 weeks but I do see a change in texture!
I didn’t have a bad experience with this product.

I heard so many good things about this Primera Miracle Seed Essence. During Sephora sales last year, I grabbed a bottle. The essence packed with amino acid that can smooth texture, improve tone and increase hydration, plus help fighting with environmental stress.
I didn’t follow the instruction to use it with cotton pad, and never tried using it as a mask. It is a very hydrating essence. One highlight, It does not contain any fragrance.
However, I didn’t see much of improvement of skin tone, it is possible that I didn’t pay enough attention. I think for a 160ml bottle of hydrating essence retailed for $58(Sephora’s original price) was a bit pricey, especially there are so many great products that can provide hydration for less. Sephora does not carry Primera products anymore, but you can find it elsewhere for more reasonable price. I think it is worth to give it a try.

My skin literally drinks this up like water. It is super liquidy, like toner. Makes my face feel so refreshed and hydrated.
Its quite pricey, especially since it looks like water.

My holy grail 😍 It’s extremely hydrating and I can definitely tell the difference in my face in the morning if I use vs don’t use this at night. The essence has lightweight texture but not too watery. It comes with its own cotton pad and the bottle has line indicator that helps to control the amount you should apply to your face. Love the glass bottle packaging too.
Quite pricy for essence tbh
