🧬 Key ingredients

💦 Sodium Hyaluronate

A form of hyaluronic acid capable of holding large amounts of water. It helps make the skin feel more hydrated, softer, and plumper.

🧡 Sea Buckthorn Water

The first ingredient in the formula is Hippophae Rhamnoides Water. A skin-conditioning plant extract that complements the essence’s hydrating character well.

💧 Glycerin

A classic humectant that helps attract and retain water on the skin’s surface, supporting longer-lasting hydration.

🌿 Panthenol

A hydrating and skin-soothing ingredient that helps make dry, dehydrated skin feel more comfortable.

🎯 Who is it recommended for?

It can be an especially good choice for:

• dry skin,
• dehydrated skin,
• tight, stretched skin sensations,
• hydrating normal and combination skin,
• those looking for a lightweight, oil-free hydrating essence,
• layered hydrating routines.

🧴 How to use

After cleansing and toning, apply a small amount to the entire face.

Gently pat into the skin with your fingertips until absorbed, then continue your routine with serum and moisturiser.

It pairs particularly well with COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Intensive Cream if the skin requires more intensive hydration.

💗 Why do we love it?

Because it is a simple, no-fuss hydrating essence: it’s not packed with active ingredients that require a separate routine.

The short formula’s main purpose is replenishing water and supporting moisture retention, making it easy to incorporate into almost any routine. Together with the Hyaluronic Acid Intensive Cream, it forms a well-structured two-step hydrating routine: the essence provides light water replenishment, and the cream seals it with a nourishing layer.

❓ Q&A

How is it different from a hyaluronic acid serum?

Its texture and role are closer to a lightweight essence. It is used after toner, before serum or moisturiser, and primarily supports the skin’s water replenishment.

Is it suitable for oily skin?

Yes. It has an oil-free, lightweight formula, so it can be a good choice for oily or combination skin, especially if the skin is dehydrated.

Do I need a moisturiser afterwards?

It is recommended. The essence provides water and hydrating ingredients, while the moisturiser helps to seal the routine and reduce moisture loss.

Can it be used morning and evening?

Yes. The formula does not contain exfoliating acids or other active ingredients that require time-of-day restrictions, so it can be used in both morning and evening routines.
