I was delighted with how hydrated my skin felt and the beautiful glow I woke up to in the morning! Since I don't have acne-prone skin, I didn't experience any blemishes at all. I found this essence to be excellent for moisturizing as well! There weren't really any downsides, but if I had to pick something, I noticed a slight increase in oiliness. I think it's better to apply this in the evening rather than in the morning before makeup! - Hwahae UserDehydrated SkinSensitive SkinAug 29, 2023
Dry / Sensitive / Thin skin My skin type could be described as a total disaster..^^ I've tried all the products from Laneige's famous hydration line - toner, emulsion, essence, and cream. Among them, the essence and cream worked best for me~! 1. It's a hydration explosion!! It's incredibly moisturizing! I skip the toner and apply the essence directly, which instantly tackles my deep dryness. However, as it may dry out over time, I like to 'seal' it with cream! 2. Balances oil and moisture perfectly As a skincare nomad.. After studying about skin and trying various products, I've learned that a good oil-moisture balance prevents blemishes. The Laneige Water Bank Essence maintains this balance well, allowing me to use it without any skin issues~! 3. Hygienic pump container! While most essences require opening the lid and pouring into your palm, Laneige designed this with a pump. I love how sanitary it is. It's a bit heavy due to the glass packaging,, might weigh down your bag if you're carrying it around.. Other than that, no complaints! Oh! For those with oily skin, it might feel a bit rich, so be sure to test it before purchasing~~~ Using the Laneige hydration line as a set gives your face a beautiful glow Also, applying the essence on damp skin after cleansing helps it absorb even better for maximum hydration ~^^ - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinAug 26, 2023
It's packed with hydration. Absorbs quickly and leaves skin feeling moisturized. The texture is wonderfully hydrating! The pump dispenser makes it easy to apply directly to your face. Unfortunately, this product has been discontinued. It seems a similar product might have been released as a renewal, but I'll need to check on that. It's great to keep in the fridge and spray directly on your face for a refreshing boost. - Hwahae UserDehydrated SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinMar 28, 2023
It's moisturizing with a good balance of hydration and oils, making it quite effective for keeping skin hydrated. The Water Bank line has its signature cool, refreshing scent. I like that it applies more lightly and thinly compared to a cream. It feels a bit like it's sitting on top of the skin, probably due to its rich texture. When applied to bare skin, it doesn't seem to absorb well at all. It's disappointing that it contains phenoxyethanol and sulfates. - Hwahae UserNormal SkinFeb 22, 2023
It absorbs well and provides great hydration, making it a pleasure to use. Laneige is really good. Hmm... how should I put this? It seems like Laneige is mediocre in every aspect except for hydration. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinJan 25, 2023
I love how hydrating and moisturizing it feels. It's not sticky at all, which makes it a pleasure to apply. The only downside is that the quantity seems a bit small compared to the price. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinNov 25, 2022
Out of all cosmetics, I think Huxley and Water Bank have the best scents. They're so hydrating, and just applying them puts me in a good mood. There's nothing particularly bad to mention. The packaging gets prettier by the day, so it's all good! - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinApr 13, 2022
I've been using this product consistently for almost a decade! First off, I love that the texture is quite hydrating. It suits my super sensitive skin well, so I don't experience any blemishes. The hydration doesn't last very long... It does absorb quickly, so it's hard to call this a real drawback. When I apply this and then layer a rich cream on top, my skin feels incredibly hydrated! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinMar 24, 2022
It feels incredibly moisturizing and soft! I'm not sure how it'll work for deep dryness yet, but for now, it seems to eliminate any feeling of tightness deep within the skin. It's a bit slippery? There's some oiliness left on the surface. The scent is also reminiscent of that typical shampoo smell you'd encounter at a public bathhouse... - Hwahae UserDry SkinFeb 6, 2022
I'm on my fourth bottle of this product. A few years ago, when my deep dryness suddenly got worse, I tried various hydration products that were said to be good. Waterbank helped control the deep dryness, so I've been using it consistently. I only used one bottle of the Hydra product because it contains ethanol and seemed to make my skin even drier. The Moisture type, probably because it doesn't contain alcohol, suits my skin better and keeps it more hydrated. The volume is quite generous, and the packaging is convenient. However, I wish the ingredients were a bit better.
