Founded by esthetician and beauty entrepreneur, Charlotte Cho, Then I Met You abides by an attitude of thoughtfulness that transcends self-care. It's inspired by the Korean concept of 'jeong' - a deep feeling of empathy and affection that one can develop for people, places and things - to go deeper, to focus a little extra effort in the right places, and spark real change to your skin. Step four in the Then I Met You regime, The Giving Essence strike the perfect balance of antioxidants, deep hydration and brightening power. Get ready to glow...
The key to a luminous, dewy finish, The Giving Essence is crafted to quench your skin with a brightening blend of antioxidants, niacinamide, polyglutamic acid and ellagic acid...
Never heard of that last one? Ellagic acid is a naturally produced acid found in berries that naturally brightens skin without impacting cell DNA, and it protects against UV rays, collagen degeneration and bacterial pathogens. It's one to look out for! The essence itself is made with 80% naturally fermented ingredients, including a derivative of fermented sake that clarifies the look of pores, as well as niacinamide and polyglutamic acid to boost moisture levels and reveal a radiant, even tone. A potent cocktail of antioxidant-rich red algae and berries (read: black chokeberry, a superfood with one of the highest recorded antioxidant levels) work to unveil a luminous complexion.
Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate, Saccharomyces Ferment Filtrate, Propanediol, Niacinamide, Butylene Glycol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Methylpropanediol, Ellagic Acid, Aronia Melanocarpa Fruit Extract, Sodium Polyglutamate, Glycerin, Corallina Officinalis Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Morus Alba Root Extract, Allantoin, Ocimum Sanctum Leaf Extract, Ribes Nigrum Fruit Extract (Black Currant), Rubus Coreanus Fruit Extract, Lycium Chinense Fruit Extract, Curcuma Longa Root Extract (Turmeric), Glycyrrhiza Uralensis Root Extract (Licorice), Rubus Fruticosus Fruit Extract (Blackberry), Rubus Idaeus Fruit Extract (Raspberry), Betaine, Vaccinium Myrtillus Fruit Extract, Aristotelia Chilensis Fruit Extract, Euterpe Oleracea Fruit Extract, Vaccinium Angustifolium Fruit Extract (Blueberry), Aloe Barbadensis Flower Extract, Solanum Melongena Fruit Extract (Eggplant), Gardenia Jasminoides Fruit Extract, Sodium Polyacryloyldimethyl Taurate, Sodium Polyacryloyldimethyl Taurate, Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract, Melia Azadirachta Flower Extract, Xanthan Gum, Coccinia Indica Fruit Extract, Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Aqua, Ocimum Basilicum Flower/Leaf Extract, Tocopherol.

Nice essence
Bit pricey if you are used to order from K beauty websites but it’s an excellent product

Amazing product - but a bit too expensive
I repurchased this essence a minimum of 5 times (which I rarely do, I like to switch between brands) - but this is painfully expensive. That aside, great ingredients, great for my skin, evens it out, makes it hydrated

Great essence
This essence has an impressive ingredients list, many of them fermented. It has a little bit of body to it providing both hydration and moisturization. It sinks into the skin easily and I think it improves absorption of subsequent products. If you’re not into k-beauty or don’t want to put the effort into researching and trying it, this is a great addition to a skincare routine, after cleansing. If you’re into k-beauty then there are several good alternatives at a fraction of the price.

Smooth and glowy skin
This essence is pretty expensive, so I had high hopes and it didn’t disappoint! I use this essence with the birch toner and they leave my skin feeling and looking hydrated and glowy! My pores appear smaller and my skin texture has improved so much!

Glow!
I love the texture, it's silky and extremely lightweight. It absorbs into the skin quickly and is a little tacky on the skin, meaning it would be great under makeup. It gives my skin a gentle shot of hydration whilst leaving it glowing and radiant. My pores appear smoother and a little less visible. I love how smooth to the touch my skin feels.

Amazing glow
I’d never used an essence before so didn’t know what to expect. But from the moment this touches my face it makes my skin look plump, hydrated and glowy - I love it!Â

Introduce carefully
I’ve given 4 stars because I was under the impression that the product would be suitable for all skin types. However, on my dry/sometimes sensitive skin, I wish I’d been a bit more wary. I started using the product both AM/PM (about 3-4 good drops) and my skin felt sore after the first day. And then I broke out around my chin also so stopped using for about a week. I’ve reintroduced by using only PM 2 good drops and all good so far…I’d never used an essence before so as some advice, go easy at first! It felt like just patting some water on the face which I think partially led me to use too much each time.My skin does feel less tight and more nourished after following with my other products (HA and moisturisers plus sleep mask occasionally). I personally found using the essence beneath more than one serum before moisturising too much, but that’s my skin.The bottle the product comes in is glass and heavy, it feels like something special and I’m now looking forward to trying the cleansing balm which I’ve waited so long to come back into stock!

Amazing
I’ve literally used this morning for the first time and oh my goodness…what is this sorcery! My skin feels plumped and hydrated and has a healthy (not greasy) glow I didn’t think was possible in January. Already hooked!
