With the cold wind blowing, my skin feels incredibly tight and dry. The essence I am currently using is a comforting product; I apply a generous amount and let it absorb, and it leaves my skin feeling hydrated. It is the Beyond Angel Aqua Water Essence, and I hear it is a vegan product. It has moisturizing and soothing functions, and although it is labeled as combining toner, essence, and lotion, I apply the toner first, let the essence absorb, and then apply the cream. It is great for dry skin, so I plan to keep using it.
