I have gotten multiple of these and I actually sent one to my mom in Australia and she specifically called me and was like, 'You have to get me more.'▶ 7:44–7:49
I feel like this is very unique. It's unexpected because it's actually a really thick milky essence.▶ 7:47–7:54
So supple, glistening like the rainbow.▶ 8:15–8:25
As my skin changed and I got more dehydrated and a little bit more combination and dry, especially in the winter, when I used it again, I was like, 'Wow, it soothed over and plumped all the dry areas. It made my skin feel so flexible and just really healthy.'▶ 8:22–8:29
If you have dehydrated, dry, compromised skin barrier, the essence gives you that really nice flexible glow.▶ 8:09–8:15

This has the PDRN from Jinseng. So, it's great for elasticity. It's building up and plumping your fine lines.▶ 11:57–12:06
It's almost like a moisturizer in itself.▶ 12:06–12:10
It's one of the only products that gives my skin true flexibility.▶ 12:10–12:16
As soon as I feel anything rough happening, I'll put this on. It instantly almost like fills in all the gaps of my skin.▶ 12:13–12:20
It's the thickest out of all the serums I've used.▶ 12:23–12:29
This is truly like an SOS serum.▶ 12:26–12:30
It truly gives you glass skin instantly.▶ 12:29–12:34
If you have mature skin, add this right now.▶ 12:32–12:37

VT the most heavy.
This feels more like a little lotion and then between the serum and the lotion. Pretty thick.▶ 10:29–10:35
I love it to use it before the makeup.▶ 10:38–10:44
I used to more like dry mature skin.▶ 10:40–10:45
This PDRN the other one is from the salmon but this is also from the plant.▶ 10:44–10:49
Anybody looking for a little more vegan this is it.▶ 10:46–10:56

This one has a plant-based PDRN and it gives insane hydration and glow.▶ 9:53–10:03
I always pair this with the VT vital shot.▶ 10:00–10:07
My skin always looks plump and radiant especially when I use it at night and then when I wake up in the morning it just looks very radiant.▶ 10:07–10:11
Still my number one.

This one is the most lightweight in texture when you first apply it. Like it's runny yet it is probably the most rich, nourishing, and glow adding serum out of the three.▶ 15:44–15:55
It truly is going to be skin barrier friendly, hydrating, plumping, nourishing, all of that good stuff.▶ 16:16–16:22
This was also another one that I could use morning and night.▶ 16:22–16:26
Morning if I wanted to add glow to my skin or have that glow underneath makeup at night. It really did help to add that layer of nourishment, but you still got those anti-aging benefits from that PDR.▶ 16:24–16:31
Really one that was easy to reach for.▶ 16:37–16:40
