The Essence

Multitasking and fast-absorbing The Essence streamlines all your post-cleanse needs in one smart formula. For a clear, revitalized, radiant complexion.

• Purifies and tones, gently dissolving and removing impurities while enhancing the skin’s ability to attract and retain moisture.
• Gently exfoliates dead skin cells, revealing smooth, supple, healthier-looking skin.
• Decongests pores and regulates sebum secretion for a balanced, glowing complexion
• Reduces the appearance of pores, fine lines, and wrinkles
• Visibly reduces discoloration, soothes redness, and visibly improves skin’s overall tone and texture
• TFC8® supports cellular renewal, boosts performance of overall formulation, and preps the skin for better absorption of subsequent product
• Hydroxy acids and high-potency botanicals, such as white peony flower and wasabi ferment, nourish, soothe, hydrate, and protect the skin against environmental aggressors
• Refreshing, lightweight texture. Non-pore-clogging, fragrance free, and suitable for all skin types

How to use: Lightweight, soothing and refreshing, The Essence is a streamlined second step designed for use after your face wash of choice. Ensure a complete cleanse, while effectively prepping skin for additional products. May be used twice daily, or as desired. Formulated for all skin types. Pat The Essence into cleansed skin with your fingers. With a cotton pad, sweep over clean, dry skin on the face, neck and decollete. Allow The Essence to penetrate the skin for a few moments before applying your Augustinus Bader moisturizer or oil.
