## AI summary

This highly hydrating facial essence integrates perfectly as the first skincare step to prep the skin to receive other products. Its ultra-lightweight, watery texture absorbs instantly without leaving a greasy film, providing an immediate feeling of comfort. Formulated with fermented ingredients, it helps make the skin suppler, more luminous, and visibly plumped daily. Although its very fluid, water-like consistency might be surprising at first and may require applying multiple layers for the driest skin types, it is perfectly suited for sensitive skin and offers a very affordable alternative to luxury essences.

Love it works! If you struggle with milia look no further.

Love it!!

I did a search on ChatGPT and this is very highly rated. You can actually layer it. It has somehow more benefits even than the micro essence from Estee Lauder, which is costing about five times as much.

Love it. My skin looks great

This is my second bottle. Even after double cleansing, a cotton pad with this toner will pick up residue. Yet, it doesn’t feel astringent or drying. I’m a fan of

After trying a WIDE selection of toners and essences from all the J-beauty and K-Beauty brands, I rediscovered this OG that I’d almost forgotten about.  I recently developed a scaly patch of skin on one side of my cheek that never resolved itself even after intense moisturizing and multi-level skin barrier skin care.  On a whim, I ordered this one after a long time away, and was shocked when my scaly skin started to gradually improve (finally).  After applying two layers, gently patting it in and waiting in between layers, I apply some La Roche Posay facial moisturizer.  The one minor negative id that it’s somewhat hard to apply from its original container (splashes and wastes too much), but that was easily fixed by transferring some to travel bottles with better dispenser tops.

Absolutely love this product!  Started a new skin care routine after 40 years of not having one.  This is my favorite step.  Very thin liquid,  no sting or burn. Calms skin, noticeably a difference in the redness of my cheeks and smaller pores.

### 5.0/5 · ann m esposito · August 11, 2025
If you have super sensitive skin like me that the tiniest changes make u turn red or break out this is the product for you.  It is super sensitive and leaves my skin glowing, it took a few products for me to find this one and i will never try another because it is so effective and has made my skin glow. 10/10

### 5.0/5 · E.B. · August 5, 2025
I have dry and sensitive skin. Most of the toners I had purchased either did not hydrate enough or irritate my skin. I have been using this toner for the past couple of weeks, and I'll share my opinions about the product. What I like the most is that it is odorless and doesn't contain ingredients that would irritate my skin. Although I haven't noticed any significant improvement yet, being odorless and non-irritating is a huge win for me. I'll continue using this product and see how my skin improves.
