Nice but . . .
THE SKIN HOUSE Wrinkle system Essence I really like this serum but the scent is very floral and a bit too much for me. I can smell it for hours after application. It does instantly tighten the skin and plump up fine lines while providing some hydration. It is a silky smooth, milky essence that feels wonderful but it does tingle a bit when first applied which could be the bit alcohol that is in the mix. I am not against alcohol or fragrance in skincare but I would prefer not to deal with those two elements since I have super dry and sensitive skin and they can both be irritating.

Left my face feeling greasy, Awkward lasting smell
I was not impressed with this product. It left my face feeling greasy & there was a lingering bad smell that would not go away. I eventually had to rinse my face for that to all go away. Also, I was not impressed with the lack of no English info on the back of the bottle- only the box it came in. Not impressed

Creamy white serum that absorbs rapidly & leaves my face & neck silky; love the citrus scent
This serum is more hydrating than it is firming. Nevertheless, I love it. The citrus scent is wonderful. I love the pump bottle. I also love that the serum is a cream white of medium consistency. It is perfect in all seasons. I applied this to my face and neck and it absorbed easily and left my skin feeling utterly silky. The current price of $26.40 is reasonable too.

I Like It, But…
This Skin House wrinkle cream is good-I like the rich feel of the cream and it has a nice, long lasting effect. I am not too familiar with Korean beauty products. I just noticed this has snail mucous. So, they stress the snail for their mucous to put in the beauty treatment. I have never heard of this before and I am not thrilled. If the ingredients are good with you-this is a nice wrinkle cream-it feels nice on my skin, and a little product goes a long way. I am sure I have unknowingly put worse on my skin-I so prefer cruelty free and I don’t know if it’s common to put snail goop in beauty products.

makes skin soft and moisturized
It works good at being a moisturizer but I haven't used it long enough to know if the wrinkle reducer works or not. Its not made in USA as you can tell from the box. It does have a full list of ingredients on the side of the box and also in pic. The cream does have a smell but its light and not over powering. So yes this works and I will keep using it until gone.

Great Essence for wrinkle care
I really enjoy using The Skin House products. They are great quality, and the Essence is no exception. I just added this to my 2 other products I use from the Wrinkle system and so far, the combination is working really well for my skin. This has some good ingredients like snail mucin, aloe vera, and collagen. Its very hydrating to my skin and I will continue to use it. For the price you can't go wrong!

Excellent cream
I love this whole line of products because they work so well. This cream is lightweight and moisturizing. I can apply it alone or with a thicker cream for overnight moisturize. It smells great and more importantly keeps my skin smooth wrinkly free. Highly recommended

Smoothing and Affordable
Great for mature skin. I live in the high desert so I battle dryness as well as sun exposure. This serum is light and absorbs well. The scent is floral but not overpowering. I found it faded pretty quickly. A little goes a long way with this cream which makes it on the affordable side. I love The Skin House products! They are always super high quality at a more reasonable price. I found this hydrates very well and left my skin smoother and more even. Can't say if the lines are fading but definitely a great cream to try.

New favorite skincare product!
WOW! This girl is now a believer in the benefits of snail mucin & The Skin House I am kinda speechless at how amazing this product is. You need very little and it goes a long way, I used 2 pumps applied to my face and neck I started seeing and feeling results immediately even my hands feel soft and look better from applying it. It goes on easily and isn't greasy and has a pleasant clean scent that last. My skin feels firmer, more hydrated, glowing and I can see a no improvement in my fine lines and wrinkles they look and feel softer and less defined. For a mom of two boys who can rarely find time to do a skincare routine this is a total game changer for me in a matter of seconds my skin looks and feels like I just had an expensive facial. I would highly recommend this to everyone you won't regret it. I will definitely be repurchasing The Skin House Wrinkle System Essence.

Wrinkle Essence
The product gives the skin elasticity, Nourishes and moisturizes skin. A high concentration of active components provides a visible effect almost immediately. Has a strong scent but leaves my skin feeling smooth and moisturized. One of my favorite brands of skincare.

Fragrance Too Potent for my Sinuses
The perfume fragrance of the SKIN HOUSE Firming Lotion was too potent for my sinuses to handle; and even after washing the back of my hand, where I had tested this product, it took hours for the intensity of the odor to dissipate from my nostrils. For those less sensitive to aromas, the SKIN HOUSE Firming Lotion had a medium consistency and a small amount spread generously on the skin. The back of my hand felt hydrated, silky smooth and my mahogany skin had a glow after application. Professionally packaged, the design of the bottle included a pump dispenser with a resealable cap.

LOVE this stuff! Reasonably priced & actually WORKS 🙌.
I’d consider this product to be premium beauty in every way, EXCEPT for the price tag, and that is a really good thing. The price is lower then I feel that the quality is from bottle to ingredients to results! It seems like a really rich and luxurious serum to me. Liquid gold if you will. Snail mucin is a new one to me, but it sounded intriguing. It supposedly helps firm up lax skin and help blur away wrinkles. This is honestly one of very few products I’ve tried that claims to do that and follows through, and without the weeks or months of waiting. I see some mild plumping pretty much straight away. I feel like these ingredients, including the mucin are truly agreeing with my skin, sensitive skin no less, and my wallet, so I WILL be ordering this again, and I’m only days in. I do not at all mind the scent of this product. I actually kind of find it a bit on the pleasurable side, to be honest. I like the texture of this product, the way it melts into my skin, and makes my skin look brighter, healthier, softer and yes.. even firmer. Stick with this stuff, and you will not regret it! Premium beauty without the premium price! 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I hope that my review has been helpful :).

Good Reasonably Priced Facial Serum
This is a fairly good facial serum that should be a people pleaser. It works well, doesn't leave your skin coated with messy residuals, and it's reasonably priced at $26.40 (today's price) for 1.7 fluid ounces. Plus they are offering a coupon for an additional 5% off at checkout. The serum is a whitish slightly creamy substance that comes out of a dropper. It spreads easily across the face. Absorbs well and is gentle on the skin. Will diminish fine lines and give you a healthy glow. Will not leave the skin feeling oily or greasy. No residuals to have to contend with, though you will see results. Works well with other skincare products. Good for most skin types, especially those with normal to dry skin. Good for both men and women.

Snail mucin for softer skin
THE SKIN HOUSE Wrinkle system Essence contains one ingredient that I love to have in my skin care and that is snail mucin. This essence is a milky lotion that is easy to apply. I only need a few pumps for my face and neck. A lot of times, snail mucin feels a little viscous but not this essence. It does take a while to absorb but it leaves my face soft and moisturized. It works better for me at night before my night cream than in the morning. I like it! ⭐⭐Thanks for reading my review & I hope that it is helpful⭐⭐

This has moisture!
This is a great product for adding moisture back after washing your face and it lasts throughout the day, I don't however see it reducing wrinkles or plumping wrinkles away, but it's a great moisturizer.

works well
Truthfully, it works as well as a number of other products I've tried. Using this type of product regularly will help to a point of making your skin look more youthful. I'm starting to get to the point they don't work as well as they used to. Darn that gravity! But they better you take care of your skin when you are younger, the longer you will look good. Using something like this in your 30's and 40's will help keep your skin look young in your 50's and 60's. Feels good going on, there is minimal scent, which I prefer. Overall, a nice product.

No way to go wrong with this cream
I'm a big fan of The Skin House brand. This is a great addition to my skin care regiment. As the other creams of this line for wrinkle prevention, this cream is very light, fast absorbing but with a very light oily residual. Is very very light but it annoys me during the day while using my mask at work as my face becomes a little sticky over time. Because of this I use this wrinkle line during night time, I use the serum and this cream and no issues during night time. I can see a notable change in my pores and my skin is bright. You can see in few weeks how it helps with fine lines and expression lines. Honestly this is one of the best creams I have tried, and the price is unbeatable for a product this amazing. I highly recommend getting the full set of this line, I have seen notable changes in the weeks I have been using it.

Nice
This is a super nice serum. You get almost 2 full ounces for the price too, so it's easy on the wallet. My mature, cranky skin has had no adverse reactions to the Wrinkle system essence. It does a nice job of adding moisture for plumping and firming my skin. Its loaded with fantastic ingredients like hyaluronic acid in a few forms, squalane, ceramides, amino acids, and fatty acids. Plenty of goodies to help make your skin soft, supple, and moisturized. A great example that you don't have to spend a ton of money for good skin care.

Very easy to dispense
This is a made in Korea product with clearly listed ingredients. The 1.7 ounce bottle comes carefully packaged and has a simple and smart dispenser bottle. While at my age, I know that wrinkles are inevitable, I would like to keep them at bay and as minimal as possible. This serum with collagen appears to give the skin a more supple appearance and reduces dryness. The dispenser is not only user friendly, but it protects the remaining product from contamination. Very nice product.

Soft skin, really like it
I had second thoughts about this serum as it contained snail mucin, I thought yuck. But I decided to look into snail mucin and I am glad I did. It seems snail mucin is the stuff snails leave behind, the stuff they excrete when moving which protects them. The snails are not killed to get the mucin. It seems there are a lot of studies a out the hydration properties of the muffin a some have had good results. So I decided to try this serum. I love how it makes my skin feel, I had no adverse reactions to it so far. My skin is really soft after applying the serum. I can't say I have had amazing results but I know that it takes awhile to see results from a topical serum and plan to continue to use it. I will update this review if necessary.

Effective Serum
I take great care of my skin. I work extra hard at this during our dry, frigid winters. That is why I was eager to try Skin House’s Wrinkle System Essence. This light cream comes in a pump bottle. It goes onto the face smoothly, without leaving any greasy or oily residue behind. It did not irritate my sensitive skin but left it feeling hydrated and smooth. I did not know what snail mucin does for the skin, so I did a little research. It firms and tighten skin and stimulates elastin and collagen production. It also hydrates. It even has antibacterial properties! This essence also contains Aloe vera, known for its healing and moisturizing properties. This essence contains collagen as well.

Nice but i've used better
I love Korean skincare and I feel like they've been years ahead of the rest of us in the skincare game but I wasn't blown away with this one. I normally feel like Korean skincare leaves my skin so moisturized it looks extra dewy and soft but this one dried so quickly on my face that the dewy sheen I normally get was gone in less than 5 minutes and I had to go over it with a thick thick cream every time.

Applies smoothly. Absorbs quickly. Leaves skin feeling slightly tacky and oily.
For the first week I applied this to one side of my face and did not use anything on the other side. By the end of the week, I could not tell any difference in skin tone, wrinkles, pore size, etc. It appears to be a decent moisturizing cream but not a great one. I did not see any visible signs of improvement at the end of the week.

Nice soft skin cream
I used this on my face and hands mostly. It goes on smoothly, doesn’t clog pores or increase my acne which is great. It leaves me without any greasy feeling, very smooth and soft skin. After using it for a couple of weeks my skin definitely feels younger and fresher than before and I’ve really enjoyed the chance to use this.

Way Too Much Fragrance
I didn’t get any real benefits from this. I wasn’t able to tolerate the fragrance—it’s too strong. It’s not bad exactly, it’s just way too loud for my face. Like a clean but boisterous floral, for energetic old women. I keep forgetting about it, but for a while I delegated it to a hand moisturizer instead. It DOES feel amazing on the skin. There is enough moisture, sheen, and firming to justify its claims. But I simply can’t handle the over-worked fragrance. I can’t even use it at night on my hands because it keeps me awake. I guess that’s why I stopped using it. I just dug it out again to write this overdue review. And ummm…well I don’t hate it, again. I’m going to have to put this in my day bag to start using at work. It feels like silk on my dried-out rags for hands. It’s such a shame about that smell. I LOVE how it feels on my skin. Arrrgg!

The fragrance is a bit strong but pleasant. It feels hydrating and comfortable on my skin. I like the ingredients list which includes snail mucin and aloe. I use it right before I apply moisturizer. I am not sure about any anti-wrinkle effect other than keeping my skin hydrated.

I didn't notice any improvement.
I have never heard of this brand and I do checkout all the brands when in the department stores. What really sounds suspicious to me is that the description states "The SKIN HOUSE - since 1979" WHAT?? Are they serious? Anyway, it feels just like any other lotion to me. There should be a website which tests all these formulas to see just what they are made of.

Different Essence than what I am Used To
I am a The Skin House Brand lover. I`ve had trust in The Skin House now for 3+ years. Every product I have used from The Skin House has benefited my skin. This, as an essence, to be used after toner has a consistency different than what I am use to. It`s more creamy than the water yet slippery like essences I have used. There are ingredients I love , that work for me in the best ways possible like snail mucin, squalane, but there man, many other ingredients in addition like dimethicone, crossploymors, alcohol , etc... etc.. I am like " The Skin House, WHY ?? Why ?? " I do not get it, and not what I`d come to expect from The Skin House. Just so much, too much for me. I try my best to stay away from all the `cones , and `polys , but here it is. It just gives me a fake moisture, not a true naturally derived, a sense of smoothness I know is not really benefiting me. Not to mention my sensitivities, and prone to problematic break outs. I`ve used maaybe twice. Ugh I am afraid of it. Can my serums even get through this essence ? Sorry Skin House. With this product I cannot. It`s giving me bad American face skin care vibes. I`ll stay true to other TSH products, tried and true, with more simple natural ingredients, and continue to recommend those.
