After cleansing and toning, take this product and pump 1-2 times and spread the essence evenly onto your face. Pat gently with your fingertips to enhance the absorption.
Why we like it
It works great to reduce redness and even out skin tone. Amazing ingredients such as snail mucin, bee venom, aloe, adenosine and niacinamide work together to provide nutrition, improve skin vitality, brighten, and soothe.
The Stars
Snail Secretion Filtrate – A wonderful ingredient naturally rich in hyaluronic acid, glycoprotien enzymes and peptides all of which assist to improve skin texture and tone, repairs damaged skin, hydrates and prevents ageing.
Niacinamide – Also known as vitamin B3, niacinamide is a very effective skin-restoring ingredient that offers multiple benefits for ageing and acne-prone skin. Among these benefits is the ability to visibly improve the appearance of enlarged pores and uneven skin tone, diminish fine lines and dullness as well as strengthen a weakened skin barrier.
Bee Venom – A natural collagen-boosting ingredient that gives your skin a firmer and smoother look.
Adenosine – A cell communicating ingredient that can assist with wound healing, is a good anti-inflammatory agent and assists with improving skin’s own collagen production to improve firmness and elasticity.

I love this product. It’s immediately absorbs into the skin and feels hydrating, especially since I use it after double cleansing and toning. Great product!

Love this product! Keeps my skin feeling silky smooth and hydrated

I love this product because I can use it even when I have a breakout. It calms my skin and keeps it nice and plump.
I like reapplying it before I record YouTube videos in the afternoon, it rejuvenates my skin (After a few hours of doing my routine, my skin can get a bit dull) and gives it a nice texture on camera. I also apply it after naps sometimes.

Its super hydrating, I used it throughout winter and not once did my skin feel dry. It gets absorbed into the skin easily so you dont have to worry about looking oily or shiny so its great for daytime use also, the acne scars on my chin, which I`ve had for years, are fading.

I have been looking for an essence for a while and I am so impressed with this lightweight essence and it’s definitely a repurchase for me.

Really loved this essence, quite thin in consistency and gets absorbed so quickly but leaves skin feeling supple. Assisted in reducing appearance of acne scars. Received this in the Benton trial kit, the whole range works really well for oily acne prone skin

This is the first snail bee product I’ve tried and I love it! I was nervous to buy the big bottle so I took the smaller size and have used it for just over a month and I’ve seen visible results. It absorbs fast, and your skin feels slightly sticky but it goes away after you apply your moisturizer. My skin texture looks smoother and refined. Will be purchasing the larger size this month!

This essence came part of the Benton travel kit and I have been using it consistently for almost a month. I find that the essence adds some moisture to my face. It is easy to apply with a great texture. A little also goes a long way.

My skin feels refreshed after using this essence. It absorbs quite fast, but doesn’t leave a feeling of “tightness” afterwards.
Aarya (verified owner) –
Absolutely in love with it. One of the main reasons I love it, is because it doesn’t feel sticky or oily on my skin and as someone who suffers from oily skin is a plus.

This product is super soothing on the skin and I do think that it kept my skin from breaking out as much as it usually would however I am on the fence about whether it’s worth the money or not because I seem to not find the need to repurchase it. If you’re oily – combo and need a soothing, mildly hydrating product to calm breakouts, you would like this. At least try it once if you are curious I’d say.

My first snail bee product. I am only using it in the evenings, it doesn’t absorb so well for me and my face feels a bit sticky and shiny afterwards. Other than that, an overall good product, very hydrating. I am waiting to see results on the improvement of scars and so on, but I don’t think I have been using it long enough to see results yet (about a month)
