How it works

An essence is thinner than a serum and thicker than a toner, built to deliver a fast hydration boost that a heavier cream would take longer to work into skin. Aqua Charging Essence 150ml leads with Glycerin, a foundational humectant that Korean formulas layer under the named actives to hold water at the surface. It is joined by Sodium Hyaluronate, the salt form of hyaluronic acid, a lightweight humectant that draws and holds water at the skin's surface. Further down the list, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid rounds out the formula as a smaller-molecule hyaluronic acid fragment formulated to sit closer to the surface for a quick hydration hit. The result is an essence meant to be used repeatedly, not as an occasional fix.

How to use

  1. Pat a few drops of Aqua Charging Essence 150ml into cleansed, toned skin before your serum step, morning and night.

Worth knowing

  • Anyone using a prescription retinoid or a strong acid exfoliant elsewhere in their routine should introduce this alongside it gradually.
  • Skin that is actively broken out or irritated does best starting this once daily before moving to twice.

  • Hyaluronic acid helps bind water to collagen, which traps water in the skin. That helps make the skin more plump and full-looking.

  • Pretty much every step of a Korean skin care routine is going to have some component of hydration.
