Description
Now on its 4th Generation, the Missha First Treatment Essence has been a staple in many a Korean's skincare collection and for good reason. A cult favourite, this essence works at a cellular level to improve elasticity and revive skin tone thanks to the addition of yeast extract and niacinamide. This essence helps to improve skin tone, whilst hydrating and rejuvenating your skin. Now, Pro FERMENTα™, containing Cica Yeast Ferment Extract alongside Missha's Delivery Technology help to maximise penetration of active ingredients.

Why I love it
“Essences are huge in Korea and an essential step in the Korean skincare routine. This one is incredibly lightweight and a dupe for the far more expensive SKII essence. ”

I have used this for a few weeks and found. an amazing difference to my dry skin. It’s so hydrating and makes your skin glowing and my pores are less noticeable, so I have purchased another
The Pyunkang Serum was purchased in October as I have already reviewed this and this is also my second bottle

I love love love this essence! I used it twice a day now the weather is very cold and my skin prone to dryness, my skin drinks this up and really helps with moisture and hydration, my skin feels so soft and brightens my skin! Great product!

I ordered this essence to reach the free shipping as I have heard that it is a great dupe for SKII and it did not disappoint. I use it during my night time routine and my skin really loves it. It is as if every other product works better combined with this one. It is the product I did not know I need until I got it. Definitely, I will be repurchasing. P.S. I would like to thank Beauty and Seoul for the immense amount of samples, really appreciate it (the doubles where for my bf)!

Was really looking forward to this product after reading about it and the amazing things it has done but was really sad to discover it’s not for me. It made me skin incredibly dry and itchy. Also suffered redness and very bad irritation, most likely that my skin doesn’t react well to their special ingredient. Such a shame!
Anna G.
Lovely product. Arrived in good time and beautifully packed.

This is my very first essence. It is very easy to use, has no smell, isn't sticky at all and dries very quickly once applied. My skin looks much more nourished and glows more since I started to use it, I am really enjoying using it and the experience with Beauty & Seoul has been fantastic. I got quick delivery and so many free samples with my purchase, also Maree responded quickly to my questions, thank you very much! I have enjoyed this so much it even prompted me to start writing a beauty blog and review it in more detail - https://skincareproductsanonymous.wordpress.com/2020/05/17/missha-time-revolution-the-first-treatment-essence/
Thank you very much for making K-beauty more accessible to the UK! I plan to buy lots more soon,

I tried this essence for a month before I reviewed it so here it goes. I didn't know I needed this essence until I started using it. I've been on the hunt for a new essence that will do the things I want for about 5 months now then I saw this recommended by some of my faves YouTubers. Oh boy is it good. It's hydrating for my combination/oily skin, it makes it soft and supple and also brightening. If you're on the hunt for a new essence, I would 100% recommend missha. It's definitely worth the hype. I use about 4-5 drops every morning and night (I'm very generous with the product) and I'm not even half way through the bottle....bare in mind it's been just over a month. So yea it's a holy grail!
Petrina
I absolutely love this essence and it’s one of my top favourites!!
Louisa E.

Nikki L.

Lindsay G.
My favourite essence of all time. Definitely a must buy!
Cassandra C.
This is my third purchase from b&s and I absolutely will be back to order more...packaged so lovely and arrived super quick I'm always thrilled to receive my orders. Really appreciate the samples as I am new to k beauty and every time each one is suited to my skin and helps me decide what to order next! I can't wait to try this essence but have to say before even using the packaging and bottle are so high end in glass and I know I will enjoy displaying this and using it. Highly recommend beauty&Seoul you can really tell they care and I trust the product selection so much, all products I've ordered so far have been amazing with great ingredients
Becky E.
Most of these reviews are misleading because they are for the wrong product, this is the pro Fermenta and the reviews are mostly for intensive moist so I accidentally ended up buying this one and not the intensive moist. Will still use it but really wanted the extra hydration
Aneeqa S.
This is a brilliant product- adds glow, hydrates and softens skin. Highly recommend!

This is my third bottle . I love how it seeps into skin snd makes my serums and creams absorb faster. Has never caused a skin reaction

I’ve had this essence for about a month now and as you can see from the picture I haven’t used up a lot considering that I apply it morning and night. I bought it after I ran out of the SK II essence and I must admit this one seems to give pretty much the same results. Although at first I thought it wasn’t doing what I wanted it to do which is to add extra hydration step, when I started applying multiple layers of it (up to 3) I definitely started noticing the hydration then. Great value for money, taking 1 star as I can see a difference in my skin only if it is applied in multiple layers.
Cecile L.
I only just recently bought this however I have already noticed positive changes in my skin. My skin seems more hydrated and a lot less red than it was. One thing to keep in mind however is that this is a toner although the packaging/name says it’s an essence. Otherwise, totally what I was looking for:)
Ruth P.
I love it, super moisturizing! I am a total fan!
Lei
This product is perfect -it makes my skin glow! It is now part of my daily routine.
Vimbai C.
I am loving this toner. It’s really good will definitely try other Missha products.
Anastaisya Z.
SKII move over! Same effect, very moisturising, and even great for de-puffing I’m the morning if used straight out of fridge. I have successfully incorporated it into my biologique recherche routine to give my skin that extra moisture boost in winter . A must try, great way to start the journey into Korean skincare
Natalia S.
I really like this essance ! It is really hydrant to skin and makes it plump and glowy ,I am really loving my latest korean skin routine !
Sharon D.
Love this product, great value.
Jessica M.
Really impressed with my order, everything arrived quickly and the samples are great. Love the essence, I think it has made a difference to my skin, it is very hydrating. Good addition to my skincare routine.
Annie C.
The hype is real! I've never used an essence before. I thought, "Is this water-like substance really going to do anything?" Well, yes - it does! It's lightweight and it leaves my skin feeling very refreshed. Plus, my skin looks brighter and more even. It also does seem to make the products I use afterwards actually sink into my skin instead sitting on it. I'm so pleased!
NUR R.
This is my second bottle of Missha FTE. I absolutely love it! It is hydrating and makes my skin plumpier. I no longer have breakouts too thanks to this essence!
Heidi T.
Absolutely adored my order from beauty & seoul!! Will definitely be returning to purchase more. It’s refreshing to see a site that stocks k beauty and skincare in the uk which is very difficult to get hold of. 10/10!!
Fahima M.
I've heard from many places that this is a 'dupe' for the famous SKII essence but I couldn't justify paying the price for that so decided to try this. Along with my other toners and essences this has proved to be a welcome addition that has definitely improved my skin almost immediately. My skin feels smoother and I feel like the other skincare products I add on top absorbs better and keeps my skin hydrated for longer (I have very dry skin that rarely gets spots with mild hyper pigmentation so my main concerns are hydration and smoothness). Recommend for sure and at this price I feel like it's a worthy addition to any skincare routine.
Sherlyn C.
My skin is more moisturized, smoother and looked brighter it makes my skin glowy, helped me replumped fine lines. Essential part my of skincare routine.
Zeljka G.
After using this Essence skin is very fresh and ready for face moisturizer. Good for sensitive skin
Robyn
Love it already
First time using an essence and this does not disappoint.
I wasn't sure what to expect and thought it would just be like splashing water on your face but it's so much more
It's cooling and nourishing when applied as directed with your hands and my skin feels instantly plumped
