Micro Essence! I have been using Estee Lauder’s Micro Essence Treatment Lotion with Bio Ferment. I use it in place of a toner in my daytime routine. It has what they call “Double barrier power”, using a “Postbiotic 12+ to work together with our 98.9% Bio-Active Lactobacillus Ferment” It is designed to optimize the skin’s barrier, lock in moisture, and minimize redness. I love adding this step for extra hydration and I believe it allows my serums to work better. It is made in Japan and paraben free.
