Review: Finished My First Bottle After 3 Months—Already Repurchasing ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Finished My First Bottle After 3 Months—Already Repurchasing ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’m 45 with normal-to-dry, sensitive skin, and this essence has been a standout in my routine. ✨ Hydrating – keeps skin plump, calm, and glowing—no noticeable scent ✨ Lightweight – layers well with other products, never sticky and doesn’t pill or interact with any other products ✨ Gentle – no irritation or issues whatsoever ✨ Long-lasting – one bottle lasted me close to 3 months ✨ Great value – high quality for the price I just finished my first bottle and I’m already repurchasing. This will stay in my routine.
Review: I love the results after using it for 5 days straight - Before, I never really bothered using essences until I was given a small sample of Nature Republic's First Treatment Essence. I love the results after using it for 5 days straight, so I decided it was time for me to get my very first bottle. I wanted to purchase Nature Republic's essence, but the price was too shocking. Not only that, but other popular essences like Hera, SKII, and Missha essences are over the top. Other brands like Etude House and Tony Moly's essences are still expensive for me to purchase, so when I stumbled upon Secret Key... I have to admit that I was a little skeptical about it. I've never heard of this brand before and the pricing for this essence screamed cheap, yet affordable. I kept this product on my wishlist for over a month constantly debating if I should purchase it or not. Eventually, I gave in and bought myself my very first essence. The packaging was really nice to be honest. The glass bottle made it feel like I've spent a lot on this essence too even though the price is really affordable. Like every essence, it's watery but getting the product out is easily controllable. Just be very careful to not slip the bottle out from your hand because it is quite heavy. Unlike the Nature Republic essence, it has a weird smell.. Kinda like nail polish alcohol. It's not very strong tho, but noticeable. On the other hand, Secret Key essence doesn't leave a sticky residue like Nature Republic's essence. Since it's super watery, it absorbs very well on skin and also hydrating. For added moisture and anti aging protection, I use my Olay Regernist Serum, Nature Republic Aloe Vera Gel, and Eurcine Sunscreen. I've been using this essence for a week and I can already see a difference. Not only does it provide anti aging properties, but also whitening properties. Last week, I was breaking out so badly due to raging hormones and I had a lot of scarring from previous break outs. Using this essence not only calmed my skin, but my scars are slowly fading too! My skin also feels softer and more vibrant too. I am considering repurchasing this essence. :)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great toner
*by T***E on May 11, 2025*

Love this essence. Skin drinks it up, and it leaves the skin softer and brighter. People say this is a dupe for SKII. The formulation is top notch, and the price point is great. Try it and see a difference in your skin.
