1. Lancome Aurora Water

Price: 780 yuan/150ml

Lancome Aurora Water contains beech bud extract, which can balance the water and oil content of the skin. 3% of the oil replenishes water and oil at the same time. Adding salicylic acid and fruit acid, it is very friendly to oily skin and acne skin. Aurora Water is in a state of water and oil stratification. It needs to be fully shaken and let the foaming stick in the middle disperse the oil into the water before applying it on the face. The oil can alleviate the irritation of salicylic acid and fruit acid on the skin. Aurora Water is separated into water and oil, so be sure to shake it before use. For sensitive skin, it is recommended to use a cotton pad to apply it on the face to relieve the irritation of acid brushing. It is normal to feel a slight tingling when you first use Aurora Water. After all, it is an acid brushing, which can reduce skin oil and acne, and is slightly irritating to sensitive skin.

2. Estee Lauder Cherry Blossom Water

Price: 860 yuan/200ml

Estee Lauder Sakura Water uses the fermentation product of biological lactobacillus and active yeast essence, which can deeply repair the skin base. It does not contain alcohol and strong acid. It can make the skin bright and delicate without brushing acid and thinning the stratum corneum. It has the effect of instant hydration of toner and the effect of repairing the skin base with base lotion. While removing the closed pores, it maintains the water and oil balance of the skin and makes the skin translucent. With the late cherry essence extracted from the double-petal cherry blossoms in Japan, it shrinks the pores, removes the closed pores, and removes the oily shine~ It is more gentle than the aurora water ingredients and can be used by different skin types. Sakura water is a relatively clear water-like, with good fluidity and the moisturizing feeling of essence. Using the micro-molecule penetration technology, the molecules of the essence are so small that they can be absorbed by the skin without repeated patting. It is not sticky, refreshing and water-transparent. You need to pour a few drops of cherry blossom water on the palm of your hand, and then press the whole face lightly. Rub your hands warm and cover your face to make the essence absorb more fully. It is also suitable for use as a wet compress for 5 minutes before makeup or before going to bed. It is better than a moisturizing mask, and the effect of fine pores and closed comedones is also very obvious. After using cherry blossom water regularly, you can clearly feel that your skin is transparent and bright, the redness and sensitivity of the skin have decreased, the area under the eyes feels smooth and delicate, and the T-zone is not as oily as before. In general, these two products are loved by oily and combination skin. Aurora water is a flash type that can quickly control oil and remove acne, but those with sensitive skin and thin stratum corneum should pay attention to the alcohol and fruit acid ingredients in it; while cherry blossom water is a gentle type that is long-lasting and does not remove acids or thin skin, and can remove fine pores and closed comedones. It can be used in all seasons. You can choose to buy according to your skin condition~

1. Cherry Blossom Water

A: The gift box was originally given to me as a gift. I thought it was a sample! Forgive my ignorance! This cherry blossom water is suitable for oily skin! Remember, it must be oily skin, especially suitable, other skin types should be careful! I have a lot of oil, so it is especially suitable! My skin feels refreshed instantly after using it, which other brands can't do! With the 75 ml essence, it is really suitable for my oily skin!

B: Product texture: Frosted bottle, feels good, a bit heavy. Do you feel like I do, that the quality of the lid doesn’t match the price?

Suitable for skin type: I have combination skin. I have used this water for two days and I feel it is very good, not greasy, but it evaporates very quickly.

Product fragrance: light smell.

This is my first time using this serum, and I feel it’s pretty good so far.

2. Aurora Water

A: User experience: After washing my face at night, it feels very moisturizing, comfortable, refreshing and not greasy.

Suitable for skin type: Suitable for mixed oily skin like me, and the free powder water is also very good

Absorption effect: The absorption effect is very good.

Moisturizing effect: The moisturizing effect is also very good. If you apply it at night, your face will not be dry in the morning, but still moist and tender.

Other features: The free essence is very useful, but it is too little. It would be better to give a few more ml.

B: User experience: It is very easy to absorb. My skin is not oily at all after using it. I think it is very suitable for me. I used to have acne and pimples. After using it for two days, I feel that the acne on my face has disappeared a lot, and the key is that I don’t have acne anymore. It is really good, but there is one thing. I think it cannot be used together with Lancome's Little Black Bottle. There will be a tingling sensation on the face after using it.

Suitable for skin type: I have mixed oily skin, it's good

Absorption effect: Very good absorption

Moisturizing effect: Anyway, the skin is not dry after using it, it is quite moisturizing

Other features: It's a big bottle, it can be used for a long time

1. Soak a cotton pad with essence water and wipe the entire face. Repeat one or two times to cleanse and moisturize the skin.

2. Use the same cotton pad to gently pat the face several times to achieve better moisturizing effect. If the face feels dry, add more essence water on the cotton pad.

3. Rub your hands together to warm them or gently press your face with a warm towel to promote the absorption of the remaining essence and lock in moisture. This will make the base full of moisture, making the makeup more adherent and lasting.

Let's start with the most basic steps for using essence. The general steps for using essence are: clean face - toner - essence - lotion - cream (important reminder: essence must be used before lotion). As for the amount of essence that many people are concerned about, you need to pay attention. Excessive use will burden the skin due to excessive nutrients absorbed by the skin, thus causing some unnecessary skin problems, such as fat particles. Under normal circumstances, it is best to keep the amount of essence we use to 2 to 3 drops. In addition to the amount, the best frequency of use is three to four times a week.
