Love this essence!
I haven't ordered this product from Ulta, but I purchased it from elsewhere, but I highly recommend this essence. Please note, because this essence not formulated like a moisturizer, unless it's very humid or hot or you have normally hydrated skin, this will NOT be a replacement for your moisturize...

Could be fabulous for some people.
I am 52 and have never been able to use any kind of anti-aging products, I'm getting a little desperate cause my skin is still oily and acne prone plus sensitive. This is light but sticky for 20-30 minutes, it plumps up your skin, it's nice, but it is breaking out my forehead. I'm keeping it to use ...

Great makeup prep
I use this in my skincare routine when I'm going to wear makeup. it's a great skin prep for my foundation. it helps the foundation go on so smooth and looks flawless. I also use it on days after I was in the sun for to long, helps my skin feel hydrated and plumed. Highly recommend!!!
Game changer
I bought this entire line of products and I have to say my skin has never looked more hydrated or Glass like in my life. I have to recommend everything in this line and product
Constant repurchase!
This is a wonderful serum type product. I have been using this for about two years and I notice a big difference in discoloration, fine lines, and skin suppleness. It is more firm and plump. Not to mention how affordable this is. Minimal ingredients as well.
First snail mucin out and still one of the best
I've been using this snail mucin off and on for years. It can really hydrate my super dry skin and helps me achieve glass skin but it gets to a point where it's just not as hydrating so I switch this with super hydrating moisturizers.
BEST THING EVER
I am in my 30s and I had adult acne for years, this serum is amazing, IT DOES TAKE TIME FOR YOU TO SEE RESULTS keep that in mind, I started seeing results after 2 months aprox of using it daily, but it´s a must now in my routine, its a subtle change at first but after using it for a year, my skin is glowy, firm and it has help to reduce some of the skin marks of acne
