How much should I apply, and how should I spread it?

Apply a few drops over your entire face and massage them evenly into your skin.

What does it feel like under makeup?

It creates a lightweight, sheer surface layer. Makeup applied over it is intended to feel like a second skin and fresher through the day.

Does the essence remove makeup on its own?

It is not the cleansing step. Its barrier film is intended to help makeup wash off more efficiently during face cleansing.

Which skincare ingredients are featured in the formula?

Published declarations feature niacinamide and Ceramide NP, along with betaine, adenosine, squalane, fermented soybean, rice and ginseng-root ingredients, and tomato leaf cell culture extract. Niacinamide and Ceramide NP are highlighted together for a brighter-looking tone and moisture retention.

Do the published ingredient lists include fragrance or essential-oil components?

Yes. The official declaration lists lavender oil, Linalool, Geraniol and Limonene. The authorized retailer declaration lists Fragrance instead and omits those named components.

PRODUCT DETAILS

Hello, smoother makeup prep. This lightweight essence hydrates and primes your skin before makeup, creating a lightweight, sheer layer across the surface. It is made for the space between skincare and makeup, when you want moisture and a base that helps color adhere naturally.

That fine layer is designed to help makeup adhere naturally, improve color payoff and stay smudge-free for longer. Makeup applied over it is also intended to feel like a second skin and fresher through the day.

Skincare support stays in the picture, too. The formula helps lock in moisture and supports a more even-looking tone and the skin barrier. Niacinamide and Ceramide NP are included together for a brighter-looking tone and moisture retention, while the surface layer is intended to help shield skin from dust, impurities and other environmental stressors.

When it is time to cleanse, the barrier film is designed to help makeup wash off more efficiently during face cleansing. A little care before color, with benefits that carry through the rest of your look.
