    My skin's daily drink of water

    The Essence is my daily dose of hydration. It’s so lightweight but incredibly hydrating — like my skin just had a big glass of water. No stinging, no redness, just a soft, healthy glow. It preps my skin perfectly for anything I put on afterward, and I’ve noticed my complexion looks smoother and more even. I have very sensitive skin and this is like a dream come true.

    Liquid gold

    This is my holy grail product. It’s like liquid gold. It has a unique texture - light but feels substantial, if that makes any sense. I put it on after cleansing and toning, and it feels like it adds this layer to lock in moisture and prime my skin for moisturizer or cream. This is my favorite product from the line. I noticed results from this in just a week - skin felt calmer, smoother, balanced.

    Powerhouse Product!

    This essence is truly a gamechanger! It's soothing, non-greasy and perfect for oily and acne-prone skin like mine. I noticed an immediate difference in the brightening and overall tone of my skin, and it's really calmed down my breakouts as well.
