Korean Cosrx

Essence

Description

This COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Power Essence works to improve the appearance of dull and tired-looking skin by using hyaluronic acid to replenish hydration. Due to the lightweight yet hydrating nature of this essence it’s suitable for all skin types, but especially oily and combination. 

In a Korean skincare routine, an essence is meant to be applied after your toner but before your serums. This is to help both with the efficacy of the rest of your skincare and to lock in moisture.
  • Plumps the appearance of skin
  • Replenishes hydration
  • Improves the appearance of dull and tired-looking skin
  • Alleviates skin dehydration
  • Improves skin elasticity
  • Hyaluronic Acid is a type of humectant that can hold 1000 times its weight in water. This makes hyaluronic acid a deeply nourishing hydrator that’s suitable for all skin types, but especially oily/combination and dehydrated skin types.

  • How to use Cosrx Hyaluronic Acid Power Essence 100ml

    1. Begin with a Clean Base: Start your skincare ritual with a thoroughly cleansed face. For a truly deep clean that respects the skin's barrier, we recommend the quintessential K-Beauty double cleanse. First, use an oil-based cleanser to dissolve makeup, sunscreen, and impurities, then follow with a gentle water-based cleanser.
    2. Prep with Toner on Damp Skin: After cleansing, gently pat your face, but leave it slightly damp. This is a crucial tip from Japanese and Korean skincare philosophies. Applying hyaluronic acid to damp skin allows it to draw that extra water into your skin for a maximum plumping effect. Immediately apply your favorite toner to a cotton pad or your hands and press it into the skin.
    3. Dispense the Essence: Pump one to two pumps of the Cosrx Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Power Essence onto the palm of your hand. The minimalist formula is potent, so a small amount is sufficient to cover your entire face and neck.
    4. Warm and Apply: Rub your palms together for a moment to slightly warm the essence. This can help with smoother application and absorption. Gently press your palms onto your face, distributing the essence evenly across your forehead, cheeks, chin, and nose.
    5. Pat for Penetration: Using your fingertips, gently tap or pat the essence into your skin with a light, upward motion. This technique, popular in both Korean and Japanese routines, stimulates circulation and ensures the product penetrates deeply into the skin's layers rather than just sitting on the surface. Avoid any harsh rubbing.
    6. Don't Forget the Neck: Extend the application down to your neck and décolletage. These areas are often neglected and can also benefit immensely from the deep hydration the essence provides.
    7. Layer and Seal: Wait for about 60 seconds to allow the essence to fully absorb. Your skin should feel hydrated and plump, not sticky. To lock in the hydration, immediately follow up with your chosen serum(s) and a moisturizer. A moisturizer is critical as it creates a barrier to prevent the hydration from evaporating.
    8. Morning Sunscreen: If you are applying the essence in your morning routine, always complete your regimen with a broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher. This protects your newly hydrated and healthy skin barrier from UV damage.

  • Integrating Cosrx Hyaluronic Acid Power Essence 100ml into Your Skincare Flow

    • Placement in Your Routine: This essence should be applied after cleansing and toning, but before any thicker serums or moisturizers. In K-Beauty and J-Beauty, the rule is to layer products from the thinnest, most watery consistency to the thickest and most occlusive.
    • A Core Hydrator: Think of this as the foundational hydration step for your entire routine. It creates a plump, hydrated canvas that helps all subsequent products absorb more effectively.
    • Frequency: It is gentle enough for twice-daily use. Incorporate it into both your morning and evening skincare rituals to maintain optimal hydration levels and a strong skin barrier around the clock.
    • Excellent for All Skin Types: Whether you have dry, flaky skin that needs intense moisture, or oily, acne-prone skin that is dehydrated, this essence is perfect. It provides deep water-based hydration without adding any oil or clogging pores.
    • Enhancing Other Products: Use this essence before applying active ingredients like Vitamin C, retinol, or exfoliating acids. A well-hydrated skin barrier is less prone to irritation, allowing you to tolerate stronger actives more effectively.

    Most common questions about Cosrx Hyaluronic Acid Power Essence 100ml

    What is the main ingredient in this essence?
    The hero ingredient is Sodium Hyaluronate, a powerful humectant and the salt form of hyaluronic acid. COSRX uses a high concentration of this ingredient, derived from sea buckthorn water, which has smaller molecules that can penetrate the skin more deeply for intense, effective hydration.

    Is this product suitable for oily or acne-prone skin?
    Absolutely. It is one of the best hydrators for oily skin. Often, oily skin is actually dehydrated, which causes it to overproduce oil to compensate. This essence provides pure, oil-free hydration, which helps to balance sebum production and can lead to less oiliness over time. Its simple, non-comedogenic formula will not clog pores.

    How is an essence different from a serum or a toner?
    In Korean and Japanese skincare, a toner primarily balances the skin's pH and provides an initial layer of hydration. An essence, like this one, is more concentrated and focuses on delivering a powerful dose of a specific ingredient (in this case, hyaluronic acid) deep into the skin to treat it on a cellular level. A serum is typically even more concentrated and targets very specific concerns like wrinkles or dark spots.

    Can I use this with my Vitamin C or Retinol products?
    Yes, and we highly recommend it. Applying the Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Power Essence before actives like Vitamin C or retinol can actually enhance their performance and reduce potential irritation. A hydrated and fortified skin barrier is better equipped to handle potent ingredients.

    Will this essence feel sticky on my skin?
    Not at all. Despite its slightly viscous texture in your hand, it is formulated to absorb rapidly into the skin. As long as it is applied to slightly damp skin and followed by a moisturizer to seal it in, it leaves a smooth, non-sticky, and comfortable finish.
