What is “Quad Active”?
Let’s break down the name of this new arrival, the Quad Active Boosting Essence. Just like the name, it is a face essence with a blend of 4 different active ingredients, hence the "Quad Active". The 4 different active ingredients are...- 1) 3-Complex ingredient 26.4%
- 2) Salix alba bark extract 10%
- 3) Centaurea cyanus flower water 9%
- 4) Propolis extract 1%

What is the best way to use it?
The best way to use this essence will be to use it 'however and whenever you would like'! Since it comes in a very watery and light texture, it will blend into your skincare routine smoothly and swiftly. 3 Tips on how to use Quad Active Boosting Essence:-
- 1) Replace your facial toner: It is as light and fresh as a toner. When you wish to keep your skincare routine light or when your skin feels too sensitive that you wish to skip your normal cotton pad + toner step, simply apply this essence as the first step after cleansing.
- 2) Do double serum and use it as the first step serum: At days when skin needs the extra care you are looking for whether it is calming, antiinflammatory, antibacterial or brightening care, try a double serum routine - where you can give skin the most nutrients you need. Add the essence before your normal serum routine and enjoy the double serum step without leaving skin greasy or uncomfortable.
- 3) Replace your facial serum: If you have hard time working with thick serums, consider this essence as your serum replacement. Especially if you expect calming and anti-inflammatory in your skicnare routine, several layers of this essence will give that exact care yet leave skin feeling refreshed. For those who find the propolis ampoule too thick and oily, this can be a great replacement.
Wishtrend Staffs Review
Few drops makes a difference!
I was always satisfied with facial toners and serums to keep my skin hydrated and enjoy the care my skin needs. When I was first introduced to this face essence, I was first surprised with how watery the texture was and how light and fresh it felt on the skin. Then I was surprised with how this enhanced the hydration level of my skin to the next level when added to my routine. One time when my skin felt extra senstivie, I replaced my propolis ampoule with this essence, and it left my skin feeling at ease yet felt just as good as using the ampoule!♥ – Kim Ga****
Pair it with serums and expect enhanced skin!
There are times when it feels like facial serums don't glide on smoothly after the toner step. It felt like something was missing between the toner and the serum step. Then when I had the opportunity to test out the Quad Active Boosting Essence, it felt like I have finally found the one to bridge the gap between the toner and the serum! Once I had a layer of this essence applied onto my skin, it felt as if it enhanced the absorption of the following serum and cream steps. Love how fresh yet nourishing it feels on the skin! – Scarlett M**
