I have read a lot of raves about this product, even before I jumped into the Korean skincare bandwagon. Great product, indeed. Very light and absorbs quickly, perfect for the 7 skin method(although I do up to 3-4 only, most of the time). A perfect base before setting your moisturizer. Will definitely repurchase!

I decided to order this when it was on sale because I saw a lot of people raving about this product.  The essence is very lightweight and absorb rather quickly.  It does not have any scent at all which is an A+.  I have sensitive/acne prone skin and combination skin, and since it is winter my skin needs the hydration.  I usually layer this 3-5 times depending on how much moisture I need during that time.  Overall, I would purchase this again in the future

This is a decent essence, absorbs quickly into the skin, no strong scent.  However, I don't know why people think it's a dupe for SKII, let me be real honest and tell you it's NOT.  Of course, given the huge price difference, I don't expect it to be.  My skin does not have the soft, smooth feeling after using this that I get from using SKII, but I also can't afford to slather on $200 essence every night, so I alternate between this and SKII, and it's perfectly inoffensive.
