Facial essences provide several benefits, primarily hydration, improving skin texture, and enhancing the efficacy of subsequent skincare products. They are lightweight, water-based, and designed to penetrate the skin deeply, delivering active ingredients effectively. Essences help hydrate dry skin, restore balance in combination skin, and can soothe irritation for sensitive skin [1][2][4][5][6]. 

However, some drawbacks include varying personal reactions, such as stickiness in certain formulas, and potential incompatibility with specific skin types, particularly for those sensitive to fermented ingredients [2][5][6]. Additionally, they are not a substitute for moisturizers and may not address all skincare concerns on their own [4].
