GLOW

FROM WITHIN

ESSENCES
have been an elusive player in the skincare world, but what if we told you it could be the key to getting your greatest glow yet? We’re demystifying this secret skincare powerhouse by answering your top questions.

WHAT IS
AN
ESSENCE?

An Essence (AKA: Treatment Lotion or Watery Lotion) packs hydration and active ingredients into a lightweight, watery texture that penetrates skin’s surface deeply to strengthen and hydrate skin from within.

WHY
SHOULD
I USE ONE?

IF YOU STRUGGLE WITH DEHYDRATION, DULLNESS OR ARE SEEING SIGNS OF AGING, AN ESSENCE COULD BE THE PRODUCT YOUR SKIN IS MISSING!

IT WILL OPTIMIZE YOUR SKIN’S ABILITY TO ABSORB SERUMS AND MOISTURIZERS TO HELP SKIN MAINTAIN MOISTURE THROUGHOUT THE DAY.

HOW IS
AN ESSENCE
DIFFERENT
FROM
A TONER?

TONERS AND ESSENCES ARE OFTEN CONFUSED, BUT THERE ARE CLEAR DIFFERENCES. CHECK OUT HOW ESSENCES CAN BENEFIT YOUR SKIN:

THEY’RE GENTLE!
Whereas some toners can strip the skin of moisture, essences do the opposite. Toners are for removing impurities, essences are for adding hydrating ingredients. Toners are meant to balance the skin’s PH, which can sometimes lead to irritation. Essences envelop skin in a hug of hydration and balance the moisture barrier.

HOW DOES
IT FIT INTO
MY
ROUTINE?

WHETHER YOU’RE A BEGINNER OR A SELF-PROCLAIMED EXPERT, THIS IS AN EASY PRODUCT TO INCORPORATE INTO YOUR DAILY ROUTINE. APPLY YOUR ESSENCE AFTER CLEANSER, BEFORE SERUM AND MOISTURIZER.

THE BEST PART?
IT TAKES JUST SECONDS TO APPLY AND ABSORB!

WILL AN
ESSENCE
WORK
FOR MY
SKIN TYPE

ESSENCES ARE APPROPRIATE FOR ALL SKIN TYPES! CHECK OUT HOW YOUR SKIN TYPE CAN BENEFIT FROM IT:

IF YOU'RE
• DRY: It will instantly soothe dry, flaky skin and hydrate from the inside out.
• NORMAL/COMBINATION: An essence will keep your skin balanced
and comfortable by locking in moisture.
• OILY: Did you know? When oily skin is dehydrated, it overcompensates with more
oil production! An essence will help keep skin hydrated and comfortable
without feeling shiny or greasy.
• SENSITIVE: Essences can help soothe and strengthen your skin’s barrier to help
combat harsh environments or pollution that can irritate the skin.

COTTON PADS.
Apply 5-6 drops to cotton pads. Gently glide saturated cotton pad over face, from the center out.

HANDS

“SHIFU” MASK (AKA, A DIY MASK)
Fully saturate small, thin cotton pads with your favorite essence, soaking enough pads to cover your entire face. Place onto different areas of the face as a “mask” and remove after 10 minutes.
