This orange bottle holds a liquid containing Astaxanthink extract. An extract that has been shown to have 150x the antioxidative properties over the trusty vitamin E. This extract, a carotenoid from the carotene family (oh yes carrots! and other things such as salmon and some forms of yeast), may be able to prevent oxidative damage when our skin is exposed to UVA.
The formula itself is light (runny liquid) yet very hydrating because it has an impressive list of water binding ingredients as well as hyaluronic acid (which temporarily plumps the skin with moisture). Do be careful though as this runny liquid really is quite orange in color.
I have experienced no stinging or irritation whatsoever with this essence. My skin feels boosted with moisture and I am also happy with easier makeup application because it smooths my skin.
Kose's excellent line of products can be seen on their website.

Hi Seeker, because our skin gets affected by our environment (ie. sun, car fumes, computers) it is important to use an antioxidant underneath the sunscreen. This way, you have complete protection.
Let me know if you can find a good antioxidant for your skin?
Grayburn
Thank you, I'll try to find it and then I'll tell you.
xoxo
