Details & care
What it is: Shiseido's first skin-care innovation that infuses skin with two types of hyaluronic acid for 24 hours of deep hydration.
What it does: The essence infuses skin for 24 hours of deep hydration while using vitamin C to target dark spots. It helps pores, blemishes and dullness become less visible.
Research results:
In a clinical test on 33 women over 4 weeks:
- Pores, blemishes, and dullness became less visible
How to use: Apply with a cotton round for additional exfoliation and absorption allowing for maximum benefits. Saturate the cotton with a quarter-sized amount of the essence. Smooth gently over skin. For an even more effective application, tap gently into skin with your fingers to increase activation. Can be used everyday.

redness appear on my skin
Even the little packages I received as gifts are creating severe reactions on my skin. I believe the product contains alcohol. Not recommended for sensitive skin.

Did not work for me
I thought I was upgrading from my usual essence from shiseido to this, and unfortunately, this did not work for me. It took me about three weeks to realize that it was this product, but it was making me have breakouts on my nose, my forehead and my chin and that was the only thing I’ve changed in my routine once I stopped the little bumps on my skin and breakouts have gone away. Sad I thought maybe the upgrade might make my skin a little nicer, but it did not work for me. I will be retuning.

Good Stuff for an Older Gentleman
Post shower, post shave. Pleasant aroma, soothing after the morning shave. Smooth application, no after residue. I keep a bottle handy as part of the morning ritual.

Hydrating and luxurious
Beautiful scent and very hydrating. A little goes a long way-I press it into my face, neck, and décolletage and my skin feels instantly soft and replenished.
