💬My thoughts:
This essence requires you to pat a numerous time before it get absorbed. Use 1-2 pumps of essence directly on dry skin after cleansing by patting little by little which makes the process of layering the essence much easier.
👍🏻PROS: It works well for dryer parts of my skin that immediately soaked the parched areas with long lasting moisture. Doesn’t leave any oily residues or tackiness once fully absorbed. Skin feels bouncier, softer, smoother & supple after application. Leaves skin looking glowy and rejuvenated.
👎🏻CONS: However, it is not so for oilier parts of my skin like the T zone, as the essence tends to sit on top of the skin & doesn’t seem to sink in completely which leaves skin feeling more greasier . Thus, avoid using this essence on oilier skin.
In terms of exfoliation, I don’t see any particles removed from my skin even after massaging for a while. Surprisingly, after a few times of exfoliating, my skin looks clearer & brighter with softer & smoother texture. It also creates a hydrated canvas for other products to absorb seamlessly into the skin. Hasn’t caused me any breakouts or reactions.
🌟FINAL VERDICT: This essence works better for dry and dehydrated skin. Proven improved skin complexion, reduced fine lines/wrinkles and increased skin elasticity. It takes time and consistency to see promising results. TBH, I am not overly impressed with this essence.
