- This is the most excited I've been over skincare tips and tricks in a VERY long time! I can't wait to share with you this game changing skincare secret that Japanese skincare and Korean skincare routines have been using for years and years! Maybe life changing skincare tip is a bit of an overstatement, but I've been doing this for the past four years in my morning and evening skincare routines for my mature skin and didn't even realize how truly effective it's been for me in the anti-aging skin care game!

Hi Melissa! I am 76 years old and abused my skin for most of my life. About a year ago I woke up and began taking care of it. I found your channel and have followed many of your suggestions and your makeup tips. I look like a different person these days after a year of retinol, good advice, and persistence. Today I ordered your two favorite essences. I can't thank you enough for your help through this journey. It just goes to show, you're never too old to start!! 💕💕
Oh my goodness! My heart is just so happy to hear this! It truly makes me so glad to know I'm helping! Love u! ❤️
@jcubed3 I know!! I'm 69 and started really stringent skin care last year! Amazed how much younger I look
I just turned 63 and I just started retinol 2 months ago. Melissa has helped me a lot as well. She’s one smart, beautiful cookie!
Ok gals! Now I'm just Blushing! Lol... love all your little sweet hearts! 💖💖💖
@@MrsMelissaM are you getting the idea of how much we love and appreciate you?
I'm 42 and I'm a makeup/ skincare freak , so THANK -YOU SO MUCH 🤗 I didn't know about this ! I'm from the deep south ,and my grandmother talked (& sometimes acted like Scarlett O'Hara 🤣) so she had me using anti-aging moisturizer and peels , & most definitely sunscreen at the age of ten!🤣 Lord I love and miss her
Aw, what great memories Allie! I love that!
I will try ur methods. I am 75, a male. Kind regards.
I followed you for a while and your skin just keeps getting better and better. It's beautiful!
Thanks ever so much!
Thanks so much Melissa for this tutorial. I have wondered for years what Essences are and what they do, now I know! I would love a tutorial on your beautiful eye makeup. It's lovely and your look beautiful.
Been using the Tatcha essence since 2016. It’s a game changer. Whenever I run out, I notice a huge difference in my skin. All other serums, moisturizers I use don’t work the same without the essence.
💖 I have been using multiple essences to my daily routine ever since this video came out. There is a noticeable difference in my skin's hydration and my skin is brighter! Thanx, Melissa! Praying for a speedy and full recovery 💖
This makes so much sense, especially when I think of the instructions that came with my tretinoin, which says to apply on dry skin so that it doesn't penetrate too deeply when you first start using it. Of course, the opposite is what you want to do when you WANT a product to penetrate more deeply! I never connected those dots before watching this. Thanks for this.
Yes, Ole wise one!! It makes perfect sense to apply before tretinoin! Thank you for that, I'm learning so much here!😊
Now that you say it, also Hairmasks you put on wet or at least damp hair. Totally makes sense that also our skin should be moisterized to better absorb.
I seriously thought I knew it all about skincare at this point. I didn’t know about this! Fascinating!! Thank you so much Melissa for this info! Can’t wait to get my essence!! 😊
I'm so happy the video was helpful!
Hi Melissa, my friend showed me the Red Light Therapy Mask from DermaGlowy and it's amazing! I've been using it for 3 months now and I'm impressed by the results. Maybe could you make review of their products?
Oh wow! I'll definitely take a look Sarah. Thank you!
Thanks for the recommendation!
Same I am using it now. Tons of benefits I love it. And my skin is so amazing
Why you gotta stop at 65 I'm 69 and I still want to take care of my skin you should never cut the age off women want to take care of their skin no matter what age they are thank you.
@@MrsMelissaM you are welcome Sarah because I've seen some gorgeous 80-year-old ladies and you could not tell they were in their 80s. So sometimes age is just a number it depends on the way u take care of yourself. Love your videos.❤️🙏🏽
You got me. I always thought essence was just another excuse for yet another product (& extra step) in my routine. I'm ready to try an essence now! Thanks for bringing the info! 💖
I have been following you since you started and have used many of your recommendations and loved them!! Its strange but I have been using serums and peels from The Ordinary without using moisturizers and people have been complementing me on my skin. I tell them about following you ! You have taught me so much! I just want to thank you for sharing what you have learned and opening up about your personal struggles so that we can all open up and help with love, prayers, and encouragement! Hugs and love your way!
Such a kind comment! Thank you so much Patricia!
Fantastic video! I LOVED the demonstration you showed us. The visual was so helpful! And that sponge analogy made so much sense, but I had never thought of that before. Your skin looks absolutely GORGEOUS! Thanks, Melissa. I adore you! ❤❤
Love u too Stacy
I was truly clueless about this step for skincare. Will definitely check it out!🦋🦋
I hope it helps Mary Joy
Thanks for reminding me I need to get a replacement! Just finished Elf Hydrating Water Essence in Dec., but I'm going to get another fave now, May Coop Raw Sauce. The Fresh Kombucha one is really nice, too. And as per another video, I love doing the 7 Skins method at least once a week, it makes a huge difference.
This is most favourite skin care video ive lost count how many times ive rewatched this love it
Melissa thank you so much for this skincare tip, I love your tips and secrets. 😘
You're very welcome Joanne!
I still want to try these, but I’m on a very tight budget, so I am grateful that you introduced products of varying price ranges
My pleasure!
I just discovered your channel and love your content! Thanks for the helpful skincare suggestions🥰
I'm so excited you're here! Yay!
I heard the sponge analogy years ago. It made so much sense that I haven’t forgotten and it changed the way I do skin care, including lotion for my body right after showering.
That's awesome Allyson
I love the Tacha Essence! I put it in a spray bottle to make it easier to apply without wasting the product.
The other thing I do is use a tiny beauty blender, saturate it with the essence and then gently pat on.This really makes it feel as though it is saturating the skin, especially the eye area!
Then apply the eye cream and moisturizer when the skin has absorbed the essence.
This makes my skin feel really moisturized and plumper!
Sounds like a fantasies routine Ginger!
I love the Tacha as well , the rice wash , the camellia cleansing oil , essence , eye cream and the moisturizer.
Hello! Is this your night time routine or is the essence supposed to be used during the day prior to applying makeup? Thanks!
@@rapidyardcards7007 I cleanse, tone, apply essence then serum and moisturizer morning and night. Apply it before your make up too. If I ever miss the essence my skin feels so tight and dehydrated
@@MrsMelissaMwhat Is AN Essence, excuse me, i'm italian, i know means parfum buy not in this case.
Thank you
I tried the Sukoyaka urea cream and it is an absolute game changer for me. My skin is so plump and soft when I get up in the morning, even with retin-a use. I've tried EVERYTHING from inexpensive to outrageously expensive and never got the results I've seen with this cream. Thank you so much for your recommendation. I'm excited to see what kind of long term results I get!!
Oh Melissa, I so agree with you. I have used the Sukoyaka Suhada Urea Essence for years, since Penn Smith mentioned it too. It is my first go-to essence for my face. I turned my daughter-in-law onto it too. It is so nice. Duh! I say this almost every time I watch your videos! Yes, put the Sukoyaka in a spray bottle and spray it later on in the day all over your face. Why did I not think of that???? Anyway thank you for that suggestion. You look so pretty in that sweater and the jewelry you had on is beautiful. It is amazing how all colors seem to go well with your skin. That is so fantastic!!! Thank you for the video, dear friend.
It's so awesome that you're sharing it with other people! I love that!
What a great tip, thank you Melissa!! ❤️❤️
Great video Melissa! Urea has made all the difference in my skincare this year!
That's so great to hear my friend!
Hi Melissa! What a great tip! Thank you! I can’t wait to try it out. My extra dry under eye skin has been bugging me lately and it’ll be great if this can help solve the issue. Have a lovely day 😃
Try the Urea Eye Cream I talked about too Shereena! It's saves my under eyes a million times over!
@@MrsMelissaM Sounds like a very good idea! Thanks again, Melissa 😊
I’ve used Japanese skincare for well over a decade. I love essences and anything skin care related. I’m thinking of going to school to be an esthetician I love skin so much. Thanks for this video. I’ll check out your links.
That sounds awesome Robin. Go for it girl!
I've tried so many products and I bought the first one you mentioned not having high hopes yet again...and I have been so shocked that it actually has helped my skin! Thank you so much for sharing this!!
I'm so excited to hear that Sheila! ☺️ Wonderful!
I honestly had no idea about skin essences and will definitely be trying this. Thank you so much for this valuable information Melissa!
Look into Korean toners and essences, 7 Skins methods. A whole new world I am so glad I found.
Glad it was helpful Lisa
Melissa! You are so good at what you do! I’ve been wanting to try some essence but I didn’t know where to start. I know now! Thank you again! ❤️🙏
You are so welcome!
Your skin really does look beautiful!
Oh thank you so much for this skincare tips. I am truly grateful for this skincare secret care.
I leaned so much while watching this video - I had no idea the difference an essence could make to my routine. Also, I have to tell you that I literally laughed out loud when that shocked kitty popped up on screen! Too cute ☺️
😁I thought it was pretty cute!
Your makeup and skin in this video looks absolutely beautiful! What essence have you been using the most ? I think you mentioned the urea one at the end. In today's video, there is a definite additional glow and difference. Thank you for your videos, Melissa! They are a wealth of info 🎉💕🌻
I use the Benton and Sukoyaka every day
Hi Melissa, can you share what the proper order to put all the products on your face? I was putting my essence on LAST🙈 which is prolly why it wasn't working lol I'd really appreciate it! And can you share the link for the earrings you wore in the video (you had mentioned they were sold out, but there was no link) Thank u so much!
Melissa your skin looks absolutely flawless! Thank you for the demo...I also had no idea! I love the Fall decor!!! 😘💗🙏🌺
So happy to hear that the video helped!
@@MrsMelissaM 🤗
Hi Melissa, I started a while back spritzing my face before I begin my routine and then after my moisturiser to seal the deal. I didn't realise just how it worked until your video I just knew by my face it was a game changer! As always thank you for a brilliant video. I hope you are all well. With love xxx💖💖💖
That's awesome Dawnie! Love hearing your experience!
Great video Melissa and I have heard about the skin used over there. Really seems lots better than what we use here and the graph makes sense to me. Thank you so much Melissa and we love you too. Be well.❣💐
I'm glad you liked it Alice. Have a great week!
I didn't know that Melissa! I honestly thought essences were like toner from years back...an unnecessary step and would probably dry me out but I'm gonna try one and see! Thank you 💜
I can't wait to hear what you think of it Vicki
@@phylliscancino2629 Just click on the links provided in the description of video..look for more...and it should open the description box 😁
I'm in love with the Cosrx Essence! OMG! Game changer since I've using. I have also found that Korean skincare is "The Cat's Meaw!"
Hey Girl! This is fantastic information and it makes sense. You explained this so perfectly. I'm ordering this essence as soon as possible!
Yay! I hope you're living them!
I just found you ! Yay ! I am happy to find something for older skin that makes sense Thank you 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I didn’t know the backstory but I know I’m so thankful I bought the Sukoyaka Suhado on your recommendation. It’s the first and most enjoyable part of my skincare routine. I love it. I can’t use the Secret Key unfortunately it contains niacinamide and my skin can’t tolerate it. Love you Melissa! Thanks for all you do for us! ❤
Hey whatever works right Lisa? Hugs girl!
@@MrsMelissaM yep!
@@MrsMelissaM where can I find these products? I looked on Amazon but they’re not available. Thank You

Hi, what is your skins reaction to niacinamide, if I may ask?
Thank you! I remember hearing something like this a long time ago, but not demonstrated this clearly. I’m going to go and unpack my skin care box (it’s been sitting for a while). This was just the kick I needed 👍. Have a good week!
Woohoo! That's awesome Suzanne!🤸🏼♀️
I've been using the Tatcha essence for quite some time. It awesome! And lasted for a long time!
I have Covid and cannot sleep. Its2:30 am and I got up and put on my Essence products lol. 2 I bought because of your recommendation. The Benton and the Urea eye product. I love your excitement and passion for skincare and makeup Melissa!!!
The Benton is such an amazing essence! So glad you're already enjoying it! Feel better soon sweet girl
Almost 47, been only really doing self care in the past 6-8 years😑but I have learned so much lately and I’m going to try the secret key for now 🎉thank you for your help!
I can't wait to hear what your thoughts are after a bit!
Hi Melissa !! Thank you 🙏🏾 will be incorporating this into my skincare routine, you explained the Essence theory so well 🥰💕
I'm so happy it was helpful!
What a great tip! Thanks! You look absolutely gorgeous as usual.
You recommendations are spot on. I bought the Focallure contour stick Mocha only recently. I have medium tanned olive skin about NC 30 and I am in love. The purrrrfect contour shade which can be applied lightly for daylight or heavy during evening. LOVE LOVE LOVE.. xx from Australia
Yay! I love to hear that Milli!
Thank you for showing your skin without the filters. Honesty is the way to go
Of course!!
And have botox too?
@@Celestiasanctuaryyes, definitely Botox, her forehead doesn’t move or have lines and no frown lines but she has beautiful skin from the products she uses, Botox can’t make your skin texture nice.
I love the seven skin method during the winter especially. I still have to get my hands on the sukoyaka suhada urea lotion. Not easily available to us here in Ireland unfortunately. Great video Melissa. Thanks for always looking out for our lovely faces x
Yes! I love the 7- step too Emer!
I always thought urea was urin lol - I wouldn't go near anything with that in the ingredient deck 🤦🏼♀
I have been trying to buy it too. Can’t find it in Australia. Even tried American Amazon and it’s never available. I have used the eye cream and moisturiser in this line and both are fantastic just can’t get the lotion for some reason.
Yes i tried to get it from amazon too said they wouldnt send to New Zealand but i could get the eye cream
@@violetfem1808 And you’ve since found out Knowledge Is Power!” ☺
Essences are amazing. I started using one a couple years ago and it really is a game changer.
Great video, I started using essence on my really dry skin a few years ago and it has been a game changer. I really like the Pyunkang Yup and some that you mentioned in this video. Have a wonderful day!
That's great Mary!
So thankful for all your amazing claim are tips .
You look incredible Melissa ❤️
I'm so glad you enjoy them Lisa.
Ask for her surgeon's name and number
@@a.r.barberi9984 not sure what you're implying but I'm very open that I get botox in the forehead & crows feet. Which is something most youtubers hide & I am completely honest about & share my experience with. And no, I have never gone under the knife.
@@MrsMelissaM awe , thank you so much .
I have truly learned so much about skincare from you :) the Essence tip has made a world of difference 🥰 ❤️
💖 I've never heard this before and I'm definitely going to give it a try!! 🙂
🙂💖
I love using a fermented essence morning and night. It feels so good!
That's great Joyce!
Oh my goodness, I am so thankful that I found you! You are absolutely wonderful! Loved this information and have so much to catch up on! You are SO BEAUTIFUL and have the WARMEST personality. I feel like we have been best friends forever! Well, your my new BEST FREND FOREVER! You are so wonderful! Thank you beautiful BFF! ❤❤❤
I have been using this “trick” for a while now. I even have some of the same essences. I have about 4 essences and do the Korean 7 layers. My skin went from looking really good to looking great.
What’s, “Korean 7 layers”?
That's awesome Stef
Hi Kari. Korean skincare can utilize many layers instead of just 1 or 2. Essences make doing 7 or even more layers feasible because they are so thin they all can penetrate.
I also like Penn’s tip to use those compressed paper masks by soaking them in those essences.
Absolutely that's a great tip Alicia!
Save a lot of $$$ and make a strong cup of green tea and soak the paper cloths in this tea. I add essence to the tea as well. Also I store the leftover in the refrigerator for two weeks. Feels great on the skin in the morning just swiped on the face with a cotton pad and then apply my vitamin c and sunblock. If I had the time to enjoy the cold tea on the cotton pads I would let them sit on my eyes.
I just love you providing us all this great information Melissa. I just purchased the first aid beauty wild oat moisturizing toner and was wondering if that did the same thing? I like it, but I like the presentation you just gave on the essence and it makes so much sense.
Hi Donna. I don't know much about that product. It depends on its consistency and it's ingredients. Sorry I'm not more help
@@MrsMelissaM // oh that's okay. I'll be ordering what you suggested anyway after thinking about it. Thanks sweetie.
Great topic! I've been using the COSRX Galactomyces 95 Tone Balancing Essence for the last 5 years and absolutely love it!
I put my Sukohada in a spray bottle and love how easy it is to apply that way!!! Thanks so much for sharing your secrets with us!!These days I need all the help I can get 😂❤
I'm so glad you love it Sandy!
Where did you buy it?
@@giovannaolaya881 the Sukoyaka or the spray bottle?
There is a new seller for the Sukoyaka Suhada Essence that is charging $90 for shipping!! OUTRAGEOUS! PLEASE DO NOT NO BUY FROM THEM!! The regular seller will have the product come back in stock soon). And they provide free Prime shipping. I would never ever recommend something so expensive! I'm so sorry there are these kinds of people.
Thanks for the info Melissa! That’s absurd! I order products from overseas that charge $4.99 for shipping.
Yes thanks Melissa. Unfortunately see it all the time with this brand iof products for some reason.
I just received mine from Amazon water! I don’t think it’s the real deal sending it back. Thanks you I always wait for your bell!
@@mariadelia80 It is the consistency of water normally. If you paid around $20 with free shipping you got the real product
Yeah that was crazy Amazon had a $90 shipping PLUS u have to wait a month for shipping 😳 looking forward to trying this essence if it’s available at a reasonable price again.
You're so amazing...thank you for sharing your knowledge and wisdom! I'd never heard of these products!❤️
My pleasure Marilyn
I've heard you speak of the Sukoyaka Suhada Urea Essence/Lotion multiple times. Finally bit the bullet and ordered it after watching today's video! Have a great day!
Oh I think you're going to absolutely love it! And after you try it, if you do like it, the eye cream is heavenly on my wrinkly eyelids & under eyes!
I keep telling myself that the products from Sukohaka whatever it is are worth a try. I have super sensitive, rosacea-ravaged dry-combination skin with all the signs of high mileage at age 62. I love my plain fragrance-free Olay Gentle Foaming Cleanser, my Heritage brand plain Rosewater spray, and The Ordinary's Rosehip and Seed Oil, and I use a Cica cream from Essence's Here Comes the Good Stuff line and a milky eye balm by Simple, but I'm somehow wanting to do - and spend! - more. So maybe you're a bad influence, but you're a GREAT influencer! Thank you for all your energy and info!
Hi Cathy. The Sukoyaka is sometimes the only thing I'll use if my skin is hurting & sensitive. It's really soothing to me.
@@MrsMelissaM Thanks!
info starts @ 2:44 !!!
Great information! Thank you, Melissa!
I didn’t know this!! I’m used to so many people making claims about things that “no one knows” when most people actually do know but that’s not the case this time! I already use most of the products you mentioned (I learned about them from you) but now I can be more strategic about when I use them and in what order. Thanks for sharing!!
I l9ve that it helped! Yay!
I just ordered 2 bottles of #1 to add to my routine. I’m 60 and never did anything for my skin but wash it. Lol. I didn’t have bad skin but when I hit 58 I noticed the lines etc. So I’ve dived into skin care. Luckily I wasn’t a sun worshipper because I’m born platinum blond hair and light skinned so sun wasn’t my friend so not too much sun damage. I’ll let you know how it goes adding this essence. Thanks for the tip😍
I hope you love it as much as I do Ann. Can't wait to hear.
Can you Tell me which one you ordered because I don’t know where I have To order , thanks
@@artakadriu9802 this is the one she's talking about. It's on back order for about a month, but so very worth it!

I started using Sunday Riley Pink Drink Essence in May and I can’t believe the difference! I am going to be 39 on Friday and I have no wrinkles! I have never had any Botox or even a professional facial. My Mama taught me a skin care routine as a teen and preached sunscreen. Mama’s know best!!!!!! ❤️
This is awesome Christina! I will take a peek at the Sunday Riley. Thanks so much!
Urea is a compound of pee. Gross.
@@shellyfish9046 the Urea used in skincare & cosmetics is produced in a lab. No one ever uses pee.
You have the best advice when it comes to skincare.❤
I'm so glad it's helpful!
What an eye opener, Melissa! Thank you so much for sharing. I will order this Essence product (one of them). I love the way your skin looks! I have a cousin that resembles you so much. Every time I watch your videos, I'm reminded of her. I told her about you and sent her a link, and she loved it. She thinks you have beautiful skin. You're such a beautiful woman, inside and out.
Oh my goodness! Thank you so much for sharing my videos Blanca! & shout out to your cousin too!
@@MrsMelissaM It was my pleasure, Melissa!
Hi! From what I recall, Japanese women do several layers of essence, if I’m not mistaken, it’s like 7! Clearly we don’t need to do that but it shows how committed they are to that. I’ve been using them for several years now and I do about 2-3 layers of it. I definitely need less moisturizer even for my dry skin.
You're so right! I use several too. I like it because it never feels heavy! So happy you already use them! Wonderful!
@@MrsMelissaM Could you please, tell me what the essence is?
@@vilifaceyoga9208 are you asking what an essence is in general? Or asking what ones I use?
Wow! I’m 60 and also had no clue about these!! Can’t wait to try one soon.
PS my second Guardian Angel met yours in therapy group 😇😉😅
Hahaha. That's hilarious Rene!
I love your energy and entusiasm!
Well, you had me intrigued at least, so I will definitely give essence a try! 😃
I hope you love it as much as I do!!
I’m so excited to find you- thank you for ALL this wonderful information and for the links!!
I'm super happy you're here Christine! Welcome!
Great video Melissa, I’ve been using the Tatcha Essence for years, recommended by Elle Leary, I haven’t used anything else to compare to only because the Tatcha Essence is available here in Australia 🇦🇺 and I don’t have to purchase it online, I’ll then follow with my Truth Treatment trio system and then sunscreen as my moisturiser, I have a very simple morning skincare routine that works for me, I use a Glycolic toner in my nightly skincare routine as my first step after double cleansing before going in with my Osmosis skincare products. Hope your having a Great Week. Cheers from Nellie from Queensland Australia 🇦🇺💖💖💖
Sounds like a wonderful skincare routine Nellie! Be well my friend
Which sunscreen do you use as a moisturizer? Just curious. Thank you!
@@JPMJPM I use an Australian made sunscreen sold by the skincare store I purchase my makeup from, it’s called “Mecca Maxima” and sometimes I’ll mix a little bit of colourscience glow and that’s my foundation for the day, it’s the only sunscreen that works well with all my skincare products, I use Osmosis and Truth Treatment skincare only, that’s what works best for my skin…

I’m using the Laneige skin cream, it’s a liquidy lotion. It’s great at night under Retin A, and it looks gorgeous under foundation. So lightweight, but so moisturizing. Problem is, adding a layer of sunscreen over the essence….now I’m back to just too much. I know I have to wear sunscreen, but it’s such a pain in the ass trying to find sunscreens that work well under foundation.
Have you tried a tinted mineral sunscreen? I love the Australian Gold! No need for makeup with this product.
@@sandraedwards5471 yes, I didn’t like the color of the Australian Gold on me. I have Elta Md spf 41 tinted sunscreen, and a tinted sunscreen from Paula’s Choice. I do use them, but sometimes I just want to wear real makeup! Planning on trying the Drmtlgy tinted one everyone raves about lately.
The trick is to find a sunscreen that doubles as a moisturizer. I am currently on the hunt myself.
try Darphin intral sunscreen.. it’s lightweight and looks/feels good under makeup..
Hi Geslina, I use only sunscreen during the day all year long...if I need a little foundation somewhere I just dab it lightly over the foundation, never rub it because it makes a mess...after a few minutes they have blended together...so easy I can do this half awake...pick the right shade of foundation and I'm sure you'll really like this...
Thank you Melissa, not only for the great suggestions, but giving us the "why and how". I've heard you speak of the Sukoyaka Suhada brand before but will definitely be purchasing now! You are the one UA-camr I consistently watch and always set aside time for. I'm an over 65 year old viewer who has recently lost 65 lbs and wondered what advice you have for sagging body skin? Having had such wonderful success with your own weightloss I''m hoping you have some tricks, tips and products to share along those lines and I'm anxious to hear about them. Thanks again for such great content!💐
Hi Cindy. I wish there was a magic potion! I try to build muscle. That helps, but the skin once stretched its really tricky. I just keep doing massage with gua Sha on my face & neck. On my body I use massages too & tons of moisturizers. I should have mentioned the huge bottle of essence I use for my body before lotions. I'll link it for you if you're interested. It's a huge bottle that's not too expensive.

I knew you'd have a suggestion! Just added it to my Amazon cart. Thanks again! 😊
@@cindylitchfield9550 me too! Thanks Melissa. This is why I read comments!😊
@@MrsMelissaM well I made it 8 hrs without placing my Amazon cart order🤣 .but wh n u mentioned that 16 oz bottle for my crepey loose skin after weight lost🎉 - well...Thank you for the suggestion🤣😍❤️💋
Oh I can't wait to try this! Thanks again Melissa!
My pleasure Diana!
Omg! I never heard of essences ever!! Thank you for sharing this info!! Today's my bday 531 and I feeling older and older and so what a great surprise to find out this improvement to my aging face tip!! I will have to save up to buy this product! But again thank you for this informative info!😉👍💥💥🎉🎉
So i was always told that a softening toner does the same thing (Minus the powerhouse ingredients) but as long as u apply ur powerhouse serum it all wrks the same...meaning it prepares ur skin 2 absorb the next step cuz ur skin is wet.
Yes, exactly right Dee. I do love having the Fermentation Essence & the Urea is the best moisturizer I've ever used on my Sahara Desert skin! Lol
I love skincare products I added all to my cart yes plesse
Remember though to NOT use these with tretinoin. Tretinoin is meant for the upper dermis, not the lower layers, and if it gets deeper it will thin the lower layers of your skin, which you don't want.
Can we use it with retinol?
Makes sense, thank you
I've loved the sukoyaka suhada lotion since you introduced it to me. I also like the one from cosrx, even for my hands.
Thank you for being here !
Awesome Lena!

New subscriber here and just had to say I never heard too much about Korean toners before but you sold me. I purchased the numbuzin and love it! My face looks so much brighter and less wrinkles. I'm glad I found you!
Woohoo! I'm so happy you shared. And I'm even more happy you're here!
Hi Melissa. I'm 54 and seem to notice more and more little wrinkles popping up every week! & I've been trying so many serums, face creams, eye creams and with one of my sephora orders received a sample of an essence and thought it was like a "toner" which I use anyway. I've been using Clinique cleansing products and their moisturizers for yrs along with this, that & the other. I have the Kiehls essence. I think your skin is just beautiful and you don't show many lines of course you're probably alot younger than I am. I love how informative your videos are & I will be trying one of these products. Tatcha is very pricey but do you suggest a specific moisturizer that I should use after applying an essence? I hate getting old, Melissa & want to hang on to a youthful appearance so badly. Lmk please. xoxo Lisa from Chicago💗
Hi Lisa. I get the wanting to fight getting older! Skip the expensive Tatcha & try one of the others. I recommend the Benton Fermentation Essence & the Sukoyaka Suhada Essence. I did a skincare layering video after this one & I'll link it for you. I love essences & sometimes they're all I use, besides sunscreen. My recommendation for moisturizer after in the daytime would be the Hada Labo

And at night the Sukoyaka Suhada cream.

The last cream is super duper hydrating. So much so that it's almost sticky. But I wear it every night & it's the only cream that I wake up with my skin still feeling hydrated. I live in a dessert climate so that's saying something. But I always like to tell people about it's texture because I don't want them thinking I'm crazy for recommending it. I know it's not for everyone but I love it.
Hi Melissa!! I am 52 years old and Japanese woman!! I always enjoying your video and really glad that you often recommend Japanese cosmetic😃
I live in U.S now so kind of difficult to get Japanese cosmetic anymore 🥲 Thank you Melissa🥰
Hey there sweet girl! I LOVE the Japanese skincare I can get. Try stylevana.com or yesstyle.com they are both websites I trust besides Amazon to get Japanese skincare.
I have heard of an Eastern practice
called Seven Skins…. Layering essences up to seven layers to add moisture to dry skin. Your information now helps me better understand how this practice would deeply moisturize your skin.
Yes, you're absolutely spot on Shari!
Hey Lady!!! I bought your favorite one..I had no idea what this was..I am 48 I am still in shock at what this does....It makes using the skin care so worth while!!! It is a beautiful thing!!! Thank you for your information!!!
Woohoo! I'm so glad to hear that Jenn!
I personally wouldn't use the secret key one as it has dimethicone in it. Dimethicone acts as a sealer and any ingredient going over it can't penetrate properly. The Missha time first essence is much better. Also for someone with dry skin I avoid all face products that contain dimethicone as it tends to make my face look mattified unfortunately. If I choose to use an occlusive on top I reach for my vaseline. I don't mind dimethicone products on my body since I don't care as much about a dewy, glowy body as I do a dewy and glowy face. I'm 42 and genuine Korean skincare has been an absolute game changer for me!
My skin isnt dry but as a 54 yr old esthetician I'd love to try some Korean or Japanese lines. What are your favorites?
@@michelletidler6773 I order from my Yesstyle app and my top favorite products r as follows starting with my top 2 faves! Haruharu black rice hyaluronic toner and the I'm from honey glow cream! I also love the haruharu black bamboo mist, Dear klairs freshly juiced vitamin drops, and the biore uv watery essence.🥰
This is one of the most useful tips I’ve learned in a long time! Especially as I approach 40..
I keep feeling like something’s missing. I’ll give this a try ASAP.. thanks Melissa!
I hope you love it as much as I do Sarah.
So informative! Definitely going to watch the other video. I had missed this one and had to backtrack before I watched the one with the 7 layers.
Glad it was a helpful video for you Karen.
What a great video! I learned so much, and I really appreciate it that you selected a few different essences to share with us. I'm sold! 💸 💸💸
I'm so happy it was helpful!
I have started using the Cerave Hydrating Toner, with ceramides, niacinamde and hyaluronic acid. It can pick it up at Target, and it is very reasonably priced (under $9). It works just like an essence!
Hi Patti. That's wonderful! I just ordered one from Curel to try too!
Let us know!
@@mwcmwc8768 yes please!
@@mwcmwc8768 I’m actually ability to order another bottle as I only have a quarter of the bottle left. Sometimes I just use it like an essence, not using a cotton round. My skin feels plumper and more hydrated! The other product that adds a ton of hydration is The Ordinary’s Amino Acid serum. I apply it after I the toner, before other serums.
The Suhada essence is really catching on lately. My sister inlaw brought me a huge bottle of SK-11, when she visited us in Australia, a few years back. She was a big believer in it. She loved hef sake, and yet, she had the skin of a teenager, in her 40's.
That so great!
I was once on a flight with cate blanchett and she was using those SK11 products during the flight😂👍. Pretty smart huh? @Melissa M
@@kcloveonaleash absolutely!
i had no idea!!! very informative video Melissa. Thanks
Well you have gorgeous skin so the proof is in the pudding. I sure enjoyed this Melissa. Take care ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thank you darling girl! Have a great Sunday!
