That water is also said to be in all SKYLAKE cosmetic products. It contains 18 ingredients that are distilled and produced in-house. It replaces the purified water that goes into the brand's other cosmetics and makes up about 80% of the essence being made. Further additions are galactomyces, which comes from yeast, bifida ideal for preventing aging and improving skin elasticity, hyaluronic acid perfect for skin hydration, two types of natural oils, and either collagen for skin elasticity or arbutin for whitening. Lastly, if you choose and add one of the four essential oils depending on your preferences to the mixture of these ingredients, a transparent and refreshing essence will be ready to be used. All you have to do now is to put the essence in an essence container and an mask sheet container.

“You can stick a label saying your name and today's date on the container. Although it has no preservatives, you can use it for up to 6 months thanks to the fact that it contains a natural source of sample Hexanediol.”
