Light essence compatible with my other skincare
I changed up a lot of my skincare at once, so it's hard to pin down what's effective and how, but this essence layers nicely with my other toners, essences, and serums, with no pilling or sliding or weird textures. Everything absorbs quickly, and my skin feels moisturized. It doesn't seem to affect my oiliness one way or another (I'm pretty oily), although it does seem to help with skin clarity/brightness (keeping in mind I have a few products that claim to do the same). After adding moisturizer and sunscreen, makeup sits on my skin pretty well, and my texture and tone have improved enough that sometimes I just do a BB cream instead of a full coverage foundation.I like the gel texture, different from my more liquidy preparations, and it soaks right in. It has no obvious scent. It's just clear, neutral, hydrating goo, which is nice. It's one of the first skincare things I bothered to repurchase; I feel like I'm always auditioning skincare, and only 15% work well enough for me to buy again-- but this is one of them.

Green tea Essence
There are a bunch of things that I like about this essence. It's been a great addition to my skincare routine. I think it's helped to boost my vitamin c serum. It's helped a lot w my redness. It's also helped a lot w my acne scars. I think it helps my sunblock work a bit better too. I have really really acne prone skin, and this has NOT broken me out. I use it twice a day. I like that 1 pump covers my whole face, and most of my neck. It's a very thin gel consistency, and soaks right into my skin. It's not greasy or sticky. I also think the price is great for a little over 2 oz. I'm very satisfied w this essence. If you struggle w redness, acne scars, or acne and are thinking about buying this you should def give it a try. I really wish I had taken before and after photos, but I really didn't expect it to work as well or as fast as it has.

Good but price keep increasing
Product is good, I wouldn't say essential on the skincare but good still. I used to buy it cheaper now it increase more than 3 dollars since December 2021. Probably won't be buying anymore because even though is good, bottle is small and paying more than 12 dollars I don't consider it that essential. I recommend this product if you don't mind the contestant price increases.

Fantastic.
I love this product so much. It has a gel like consistency, but absorbs beautifully with no sticky feeling after. Perfect for layering under other products (I use this after essence and before serums). It’s super gentle on my hyper sensitive skin and seems to ease my perpetual redness a bit. It’s also helping to slightly soften some of my fine lines. I love it and will keep reordering it for as long as it’s available.

had an allergic reaction!!:(
read so many good reviews on this product but unfortunately it wasn’t the one for me. theres a difference between purging & having an allergic reaction & my sensitive skin did not like this producthad little breakouts on areas on my face i never get breakouts at around 15min after applying this to my face. did try it a few times to see but sadly had the same reactions to it each time.with that being said, the ingredients in this product looks very promising and with the price point you can’t beat it! my skin doesn’t work well with fragrances and essential oils (this mightve been the reason why) i’m sure it works wonderful on other skin types!

Very calming and brightening to skin
Favorite k beauty essence so far.Update: it’s been about 6 months since buying it and I’m on my 2nd bottle and have one as a backup. Love this stuff and use it every morning and night. I don’t see myself switching anytime soon.2nd update: i have been using for over a year and I’m on my third bottle and still love it. I’m buying my mom her second bottle now. I use this after my rose toner and before my actives and cream. My face always feels very moisturized. And the price point is a great value compared to other essences on the market.

A nice addition
I like to use this after microneedling. It has a softer green tea smell which I prefer, as I do not like green tea. It is not too thick, absorbs nicely, and is gentle.
