Reviews

Love this product, not the

"Love this product, not the cheapest but well worth every penny"

— Kim p. (5/5)

Essence

"It does appear to plump the skin, when used. it is a nice product but it is a bit on the expensive side for a toner. It can be a bit tricky at first to use as you are poring the liquid onto your palm then applying to your face, but once you have the hang off the technique it is fine."

— caroline d. (4/5)

Extremely expensive tonic

Magic

"This has made quite a difference to my skin. Wrinkles appear reduced and my skin feels plumper. Not easy to use as it’s a liquid so easy to use too much but I seem to have the knack now."

— Gilly K. (5/5)

Gorgeous

"Such a lovely product, gentle but effective and the packaging is gorgeous"

— Charlotte R. (5/5)

This product is a non-negotiable!

"The essence boosting treatment is a must have in my skincare routine! I feel when I done use this, my skincare just sits at the top of my skin, rather than soaking beneath surface level like skincare should! 10/10 product"

— Sophia C. (5/5)

Purchased as a gift
