Directions for use:

With Hands

  • Using your fingers, pat The Essence into cleansed, dry skin on the face, neck and décolleté.

With Cotton Pad

  • Alternatively, dispense The Essence onto a cotton pad, and sweep over clean, dry skin.
  • Allow The Essence to penetrate the skin for a few moments before applying your Augustinus Bader moisturizer or oil.

Note: This multitasking 3-in-1 formula replaces the need for other exfoliators and acids in your routine. We would not recommend using The Essence in conjunction with other acids or exfoliators.
