Do You Really Need An Essence?

by Radhika Pawar creative content writer

The main goal of an essence is to prepare the skin to receive the other subsequent products in a skincare routine. And its liquid texture makes all the difference here. Actually, think about a sponge or rather two sponges. One is very dry and hard while others is wet. What happens if you run water on your dry sponge? Much of the water will just slip on the surface and go directly into your sink.

 

The wet sponge on the other hand will absorb and quickly retain much water. A skin prepared with an essence reacts a bit like a wet sponge. Anything you apply on top of it will absorb faster and deeper in the skin. So if you are in dire need of a flawless skin, that’s the reason you should consider an essence. Read below to find out more!

 

For who?

Skintypes that benefit the most from essences are logically the dry and dehydrated skin types, but also mature skins. Generally, it applies to all skin types where you feel that nothing really absorbs and everything stays on the surface where you apply skincare products. Combinations and oily skin can also benefit from it but even more if they are dehydrated.

 

Sometimes with a fewmoisturizing essences, they can even replace the moisturizing cream in the case of these skin types. For instance, on a very oily skin in the middle of a heat wavewhen the skin rejects all the products, essence can be enough to moisturise the skin.

 

HowAnd When To Use An Essence

Essences have their own application steps and using a cotton pad is not necessary. The goal is to get the product into their skin and not to leave it on the surface. Just take a few drops in the palm of your hand and apply it by small pressure and dabbing on the skin.

 

When it comes to application time, you apply SK II facial treatment essence before using serum in the morning and/or evening. If you use a toner, you apply the essence after this step. For those who use stronger active treatments with ingredients like vitamin C or retinol, the essence is applied after.

 

Bottom Line

These are some of the things you should take note if you really need an essence for your skin,With that, you will be in a position to achieve the best skin texture you really longed for hassle-free.
