Secret Key Starting Treatment Essence Review
March 19, 2015
I bought this because its kind of a dupe of SK-II starting treatment essence. I never tried it but since its too expensive, Secret Key Starting Treatment Essence is a better option for me. Plus, it has the 7 free system which is totally cool with folks with sensitive skin like me. So galactomyces are basically yeast and these are patented as Pitera in SK-II product.

Texture & Fragrance
It has a mild sweet smell of galactomytes. It’s texture is exactly like water. It’s not greasy or sticky.
Application
To be used at the first stage of skincare. However, I use my toner first.
- After cleansing, gently pat face and neck using a cotton pad soaked with Facial Treatment Essence. You can even use it on the eye area.
- Use twice daily, morning and night.
My Impression
I love this product. I’ve been using this for four months and it made my skin really soft and a bit luminous. My skin is not dry and flaky anymore. Unfortunately, it did not brighten my skin at all. It made my skin more healthy looking, but doesn't glow. My acne scars did reduce a tin bit, I can’t depend solely on this product for that. The effect is mild, but it works well. It’s not sticky and absorbs fast. It did not break me out as well which is awesome.
