Then I Met You The Giving Essence
Founded by esthetician and beauty entrepreneur, Charlotte Cho, Then I Met You abides by an attitude of thoughtfulness that transcends self-care. It's inspired by the Korean concept of 'jeong' - a deep feeling of empathy and affection that one can develop for people, places and things - to go deeper, to focus a little extra effort in the right places, and spark real change to your skin. Step four in the Then I Met You regime, The Giving Essence strike the perfect balance of antioxidants, deep hydration and brightening power. Get ready to glow...
The key to a luminous, dewy finish, The Giving Essence is crafted to quench your skin with a brightening blend of antioxidants, niacinamide, polyglutamic acid and ellagic acid...
Never heard of that last one? Ellagic acid is a naturally produced acid found in berries that naturally brightens skin without impacting cell DNA, and it protects against UV rays, collagen degeneration and bacterial pathogens. It's one to look out for! The essence itself is made with 80% naturally fermented ingredients, including a derivative of fermented sake that clarifies the look of pores, as well as niacinamide and polyglutamic acid to boost moisture levels and reveal a radiant, even tone. A potent cocktail of antioxidant-rich red algae and berries (read: black chokeberry, a superfood with one of the highest recorded antioxidant levels) work to unveil a luminous complexion.
Use daily. After double cleansing and prepping the skin with the Birch Milk Refining Toner, dispense The Giving Essence into your hands and pat or press onto face. Continue with the rest of your skin care routine. With any expected sun exposure, always protect skin with sunscreen.
