Glycerin is already naturally found in your skin. It helps moisturize and protect your skin.

A study from 2016 found glycerin to be more effective as a humectant than AHAs and hyaluronic acid.

Hydrated skin improves your skin barrier; Your skin barrier helps protect against irritants and bacteria.

Glycerin has also been found to have antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Due to these properties, glycerin is often used in wound and burn treatments.

In cosmetics, glycerin is usually derived from plants such as soybean or palm. However, it can also be sourced from animals, such as tallow or animal fat.

This ingredient is organic, colorless, odorless, and non-toxic.

Glycerin is the name for this ingredient in American English. British English uses Glycerol/Glycerine.

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract is derived from the leaves of the tea plant. Black tea, green tea, and oolong tea are all harvested from this plant.

This ingredient has many skin benefits:

Polyphenols and L-theanine help soothe the skin and reduce irritation. The caffeine in Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract helps calm inflamed blood vessels.

Other compounds found in tea include: Vitamin Bs, linoleic acid, magnesium, calcium, iron, and zinc.

Research has shown both drinking Camellia Sinensis Leaf Tea and applying it to the skin can help boost skin elasticity and hydration. Studies also show using tea extract may reduce sebum, or oil, production.

this is the best essence i've tried this year and this is maybe becoming my favorite essence too. it has a viscous texture, similar to the hyaluronic acid hydra power essence by cosrx. so it's not as thick as the snail mucins we know from cosrx and jumiso as an example. i love the added peptides, hyaluronic acids and collagen in here and people with dry, dull, mature and aging skin might like it or even love it. it is safe to use once or twice a day (am&pm). it hydrates the skin, giving u plump and glowy skin without leaving a tacky finish once it has fully been absorbed into the skin. my skin has also not shown any bad effects of using the essence such as irritation,itchyness or dryness but i cannot talk for everyone, but it should be safe for sensitive skin. i recommend using 2-3 pumps of the essence on damp skin to get the benefits of the added ingredients. the price is totally okay (i got mine for 21€) but compared to other essences that have much more product, it is more pricey. the essence is really worth the try if u love the aqua oasis toner, the serum or cream from s.nature like i do. dry, mature, dull, aging and combination skin would benefit the most from the essence!! 4.7 outta 5 stars.

I like, that this essence contain Fermented Complex and Niacinamide without fragrance and alergens. Improve better texture, dullness, soothing, a little clean pigmentation. However, I see first result after 3 month only and every positive change just dessapear after bottle finished and caused breakness and dryiness. Another big "no" it feels like film after applying.
