I have been looking for a good essence to add to my usual skincare routine and the Missha Time Revolution The First Essence 5X seems great for this weather. Since it is getting warmer outside, I need something more lightweight and refreshing. This essence is supposedly more of a brightening essence so I am excited to try it out. Let’s get into my Missha Time Revolution The First Essence 5X review.
Watery Essence Without a Scent
The Missha Time Revolution The First Essence 5X comes in a big clear glass bottle. This bottle design makes it feel very luxurious. The consistency of this essence is like water and kind of runny so it feels very lightweight. I personally love how gentle it feels on my skin.
This essence doesn’t have any strong scent, which is probably because it doesn’t contain Fragrance. For this reason, I think no one will experience any sensitivity to the scent.
Hydrating and Soothing
The Missha Time Revolution The First Essence 5X feels super nice on my skin. It feels hydrating and soothing, which makes me feel relaxed. This essence sinks into my skin like a dream and feels lightweight. This essence has no stickiness or greasy feel, which means it also doesn’t make my skin oily. It immediately plumps up my skin and gives it a nice healthy glow.
My skin feels kind of soft and moist after applying this essence to my skin. I love to go in with the Time Revolution Night Repair Ampoule 5X after I have applied this essence. It really helps boost all the benefits of the Missha Time Revolution The First Essence 5X. My skin stays glowing and feels properly nourished all day long.
Better Skin After a Couple of Days
The Missha Time Revolution The First Essence 5X made my skin look better after just a couple of uses. You can feel the hydrating effects and it also firmed my skin well. Most of my redness has subsided and my skin feels calmer. The biggest difference I have noticed is in my complexion but I am sure it will also help with my texture.
This essence definitely brightens my dull skin and keeps my skin looking more even-toned. This makes my face look a lot more healthy and fresh.
Smooth Textured Skin
The Missha Time Revolution The First Essence 5X has improved my skin texture so much after a week. My skin is soft, smooth, and clear from the small bumps under my skin. This essence has been keeping my skin clear from blemishes in general. I haven’t been experiencing hormonal acne or irritation and I see a difference in my acne scars a little bit.
The Missha Time Revolution The First Essence 5X has reduced flakiness and the rough texture on certain areas of my face. Now when I touch my skin, I don’t feel the rougher patches at all. My pores also look more refined so they are smaller.
Great Summertime Essence
The Missha Time Revolution The First Essence 5X helps mostly with dullness, hyperpigmentation, and a little bit with hydration. This essence keeps my skin well-balanced so my oily areas are not as oily. In my opinion, it is great for all skin types.
This essence is a great skincare product for summer or warmer months since it’s so lightweight and refreshing. It soothes irritation and prevents dryness really well so my skin stays calm for a long time. The bottle lasts for quite a long time.
Speaking of good summertime essences, another big favorite of mine is the Missha Time Revolution Artemisia Treatment Essence. It’s quite similar to the First Essence 5X but has its own personality that really makes it shine in my opinion.
