The rise of Korean- and Japanese-based beauty has had a major impact on Western skincare routines, and the step we didn\u2019t know we needed (until now) is an essence. Essentially, an essence is a lightweight fluid used after or in place of toner to prepare the skin for serums and moisturizers that follow. The simple act of pressing one of these liquid formulations into clean skin delivers a lower concentration of active ingredients than a serum, but more importantly, adds extra skin-improving\u00a0oomph to your regimen. Here, the essences to try right now.<\/p>\n

SK-II Facial Treatment Essence
\n<\/a>A skincare favorite long before Japanese beauty started trending, this essence features 90% Pitera, a byproduct of the sake fermentation process that has been found to reduce wrinkles, prevent discoloration, promote skin renewal, refine skin texture and enhance firmness. A few shakes pressed gently into the skin delivers hydration and radiant skin you may not want to cover up with makeup.<\/p>\n

AmorePacific Single Extract Essence
\n<\/a>This antioxidant powerhouse harnesses the superior skin-protecting capabilities of green tea (grown on AmorePacific\u2019s own farm on Jeju Island off the coast of Korea). It takes 50 days to ferment the tea leaves, 50 days for them to cure and 24 hours to extract the essence you\u2019ll eventually apply to the skin\u2014but the wait is well worth it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
