What It Is

A breakthrough 3-in-1 formula that combines the properties of a mild chemical exfoliant, a toner and an essence to reveal smoother, softer and more hydrated skin.

  • Key Ingredients

    - TFC8®: A complex of natural amino acids, high-grade vitamins and synthesized molecules naturally found in skin, which guides key nutrients and powerful natural ingredients to the skin, creating an optimal environment for the body's innate processes of repair and renewal.
    - Phytic Acid: This 100% natural exfoliator derived from rice yields gentle keratolytic effects and helps cell turnover. It promotes a healthy skin by removing dead skin that clog the skin to reveal a radiant skin with increased collagen production. Fine lines are softened and skin appears smoother with an even-toned glowing complexion.
    - Salicylic Acid: A BHA with keratolytic properties used to treat skin imperfections.
    - Gluconolactone: A PHA that gently lifts off dead skin from the skin surface.
    - Hyaluronic Acid: A polysaccharide found naturally in skin that holds water and helps keep it hydrated and plump.
    - Wasabi Ferment: An antimicrobial antioxidant that helps protect DNA against damage caused by free radicals.
    - White Peony Flower: A flower extract known for its soothing and pollution-protecting properties.

  • How To Use It

    Pat into cleansed, dry skin with your fingers or use a cotton pad to sweep over the face, neck and décolleté.

The Essence

Great product

A reluctant favourite

I didn’t want to love this, because the price point of Augustine Bader products is ridiculous, but dang, I loved it. I had an 8ml sample of this which lasted a little over 2 weeks using every night, and wow, I was really impressed with the impact it had on my skin in even such a short time. Smoother, softer, less red, just all around great. I didn’t have any irritation from it. I still think it’s expensive for what it is, but it is one of the more affordable products from the line, and if I ever spotted it on sale I’d snap it up in a heartbeat.

Great Essence

This and the cleansing balm are two AB products that really stand out to me - more affordable that the creams but leave the skin feeling amazing. The essence isn't drying and yet it still makes the skin feel refreshed and balanced (I have oily skin). Will definitely repurchase this when next on offer!

Rejuvinated Skin

This is such an amazing product for making my skin feel tight and radiant. However if you have super sensitive skin like me, I would advise waiting at least 20 mins before adding the rich cream or another moisturizer. My skin will get red patches if I only wait a couple of mins and feel really hot.

Lightweight but moisturising

This essense is super gentle on the skin, helping it to keep moisture locked in without slogging pores. Great for everyday use. Worth the investment. The product also lasts a long time and you don't need to use to much. Overall a great essence and worth investing in.

Excellent

I received a 8ml sample and really enjoyed using it. It lasted quite a while. Drop in hands and pat in. This was realy great and could see the difference. It is expensive but not as expensive as other AB products. I love AB oil and in conjunction it was great. I might consider buying again but if you can afford it I highly recommend.

Very good essence

For me this is a very good essence. I use it every evening after cleansing my skin and before the serum. You only need a few drops and you can use it with your fingertips. My pores are smaller and dark spots are almost invisable. My skin is very well hydrated.
