SECRETKEY Starting Treatment Essence, Nourishment & Hydration, Wrinkle care, Contained 95% Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate 5.24 fl. Oz. / 155ml, Natural Ingredients, Essence for Sensitive Skin

This is my go to replacement of SK2 for its intended functions. The product doesn’t contain Pitera but it does have Galactomyces, which can brightening, hydrating, supports barrier repair. The essence is light and airy like water, easy to apply, and it is not sticky at all.

Love this essence. Skin drinks it up, and it leaves the skin softer and brighter. People say this is a dupe for SKII. The formulation is top notch, and the price point is great. Try it and see a difference in your skin.

This is one of my favorite second step in my a.m. and p.m. winter routine. I have tried many $-$$$$ toners and this is one is the best. I always thought of a toner as a stripping agent or an exfoliant but as I have gotten older realized that it's better to keep your skin barrier protected instead of stripped. This is extremely helpful to help keep the skin prepared to be moisturized and protected particularly in the dry months of winter. I have less negative reactions from retinoids since using as part of my routine. It layers perfectly with other serums. Won't live without.

This is really thin like water but my skin seems to feel softer.

It’s okay but I can’t really tell a difference since I started using it.

I put it in a spray bottle and I spray my face right after shower before I put on the cream. It feels wonderful

My favorite essence. This was my very first essence and even though I've purchased others that I've liked this is my go to.This is my 3rd purchase of Secret Key.I usually buy the rose edition but thought I would try this formula.I would highly recommend either of the editions of this essense if you haven't tried it yet.

Use after cleansing, and toner, this essence sets your skin up for your serums
