Does Estee Lauder eye cream need to be paired with essence? The difference between Estee Lauder eye essence and eye cream

I believe that when ladies buy Estee Lauder's Little Brown Bottle, they often buy its little brown bottle eye cream and essence together. So, does Estee Lauder eye cream need to be used with essence?

Is it necessary to use essence with Estee Lauder eye cream?

Estee Lauder eye cream does not have to be used with essence, you can choose according to your personal skin condition. Estee Lauder eye cream has a light texture, is easily absorbed and has strong penetration. It can be used alone as an eye cream or layered with other skin care products. If used in combination, the order is essence first and then eye cream.

The difference between Estee Lauder eye essence and eye cream

Estee Lauder Eye Serum can be used alone as an eye cream or as an eye essence layered over other eye creams. This is an all-round essence, and its light texture means you don’t have to worry about getting fat particles. Of course, the sooner you use eye cream, the better. Moreover, the molecules of eye essence are smaller than those of eye cream, making them easier to absorb and more penetrating. It can be used alone as an eye cream or layered with other functional essences, and it can also promote the absorption of subsequent products. The disadvantage is that the massage pen cannot remove the essence from the bottle wall and bottom after using it for a period of time, which is a bit wasteful.
