Favorite essences?

I unfortunately finally ran out of Maycoop’s Raw Sauce and can’t get it anywhere, so I’m wondering.... What are some of your favorite essences out today? I loved that Raw Sauce was toning as well as hydrating for my dry skin...does Sephora currently carry any other similar products?

I love Caudalie Vinoperfect Glycolic Brightening Essence

 

Which skin type is it good for?
✔ Normal
✔ Oily
✔ Combination
✔ Dry
✔ Sensitive 

What it is:
A natural brightening essence powered by glycolic acid to sweep away dead skin cells and organic grape water to hydrate, revealing brighter, smoother, and more even skin. 

Solutions for:
- Uneven skin tone 
- Dark spots
- Dullness and uneven texture 

If you want to know more…
Instantly brighten with this effective yet gentle concentrated essence, which combines two powerhouse ingredients: glycolic acid to eliminate dead skin cells and Caudalie’s exclusive 100 percent organic grape water to soothe and hydrate. White peony extract enhances luminosity, revealing a new, fresh layer underneath dull skin. By adding this simple step to your regimen, your skincare will work better, faster, and stronger. 

What else you need to know:
This product is vegan, non-toxic, cruelty-free, hypoallergenic, safe for sensitive skin,and free of all fillers, gluten, GMOs, and synthetic chemicals. 
Research results:
In a clinical test/self-evaluation on 33 volunteers:
- 100% of volunteers found the product did not irritate the skin 

After 7 days:

- 91% of volunteers found their pores were tighter
- 82% of volunteers found their skin was radiant

After 56 days:

After 56 days, when used with Vinoperfect Radiance Serum:

Re: Favorite essences?

Personally, I just reordered LANEIGE - Water Bank Essenceafter trying the whole dry skin lineup, it's perfect before applying a utilitarian serum. The gentle, clean smell it has is so wonderful too. I enjoy that it has a pump as opposed to using more cotton rounds too.

Re: Favorite essences?

Although it's not technically an essence, I use the KIEHL'S SINCE 1851 - Ultra Facial Toneras an essence. 

Re: Favorite essences?

@chighttu  I totally agree with @RebeccaBT  I love SK-II Anti-Aging Facial Treatment Essence 5.4 oz/ 160 mL

it was recommended to me after I had really bad cystic acne that left scars all over my neck and face. I started using it and it helped even out my skin tone and helped fade my scars and left my skin looking glowy. 

Re: Favorite essences?

@chighttu I love the SK-II Anti-Aging Facial Treatment Essence 5.4 oz/ 160 mLIt calms my skin and leaves it glowing! I hope this helps!

 

Best,
Rebecca

Re: Favorite essences?

@chighttu - I also have dry skin. Some of my Sephora favs are the AMOREPACIFIC - Vintage Single Extract Essenceand FRESH - Black Tea Kombucha Antioxidant Essence.

Re: Favorite essences?

I’m going to concur with popular opinion here. I use the SK-II essence and it’s fantastic. It’s pricy imo, but definitely worth it.

Re: Favorite essences?

@chighttu I just started using an essence and I can't believe I waited this long!  I got a sample of Paula's Choice RESIST Brightening Essence and it's been amazing!  My skin tone has been more even, my skin is plumper, and definitely more radiant.  I liked it so much that I bought the full size.  It has niacinimide, peptides and hyaluronic acid - and Vitamin C.
