Jurlique's K-beauty-inspired essence — the first essence in the au-beauty lineup. Farm-grown marshmallow root extract (the hero — Althaea officinalis is one of the most mucilage-rich botanicals, forming a hydrating film that helps skin retain water), combined with calendula, lavender, and Rosa gallica from Jurlique's biodynamic farm in the Adelaide Hills. Saccharide isomerate provides 72-hour moisture binding (it physically bonds to keratin in the stratum corneum). Sodium hyaluronate adds immediate plumping. Clinically proven to improve hydration by 55%. Apply after cleansing and before serum — the essence format preps the skin to absorb subsequent actives. At $49 for 75ml, it's premium but delivers genuinely farm-to-face Australian botanicals.
