WHAT IT IS:
A powerful anti-aging treatment to reduce the appearance of fine lines and sun spots, visibly refine texture, even skin tone and improve firmness.

Normal, Dry, Combination, Oily

SKIN CONCERN:
Dark Spots, Fine Lines/Wrinkles, Uneven Texture

WHAT IT DOES:
An anti-aging must-have. SK-II's highest percentage PITERA™, its 50+ micronutrients (peptides, vitamins, minerals) help reduce UVA and UVB surface oxidative damage. The lightweight formula absorbs quick to work within the moisture barrier, improving surface cell turnover for a youthful, dewy glow.

KEY INGREDIENTS:
- PITERA™: Improves skin's natural regeneration, for youthful skin. SK-II transformed skincare when scientists discovered PITERA™, the proprietary ingredient that forms the heart of all their products. They discovered PITERA™ during their tireless quest for beautiful bare skin. In the 1970s, their scientists became fixated on the soft, youthful-looking hands of elderly workers at a Japanese sake brewery. They knew the secret must lie in yeast and fermentation process. Rich in vitamins, amino acids, minerals and organic acids, SK-II's proprietary ingredient PITERA™, dramatically improves the natural surface rejuvenation process.

HOW TO USE IT:
- Pour 2-3 shakes (about a quarter size amount) of the essence into the palm of your hand. Press together to wet both hands. Gently press the essence over your face and neck for 1 minute, ensuring even coverage. Continue pressing until it is fully absorbed into your skin.
- This essence can be used twice daily. It is recommended to apply after any cleansers/toners and before any serums/moisturizers.

CLINICAL RESULTS:
In a 11-year longitudinal study with 108 subjects:
- PITERA™ was shown to diminish visible skin damage and signs of aging (fine lines, wrinkles, sun spots, dullness, texture, dryness) by up to 10 years with just 1 year of PITERA™ regimen use.

In a 28-day consumer agreement study with 65 participants:
- Skin felt moisturized and smooth after 3 days.
- Skin looked and felt softer and firmer after 1 week.
- Users saw improved skin texture and reduced fine lines and wrinkles appearance after 2 weeks.
- Skin looked radiant after 28 days.

In a clinical study with 272 women:
- Women who started using the Facial Treatment Essence in their 20s looked significantly younger in their 30s and 40s.

Not as impressive

It’s hard to say because I did not notice a big difference. This is my skincare routine: Dermalogica face wash, Dermalogica toner, SK-II pitera, and Dermalogica moisturizer. Sometimes I’ll add in LaMer face oil if it is extra dry.

The best skincare product in my daily routine

Worth the price! It's lightweight and has really improved my skin's brightness and texture over time. It may not feel like it's doing much initially since it feels like water but results will come in after consistently applying it for a week or two :)

The SK-II Facial Treatment Essence is a transforma

The SK-II Facial Treatment Essence is a game-changer for my skincare routine. From the first application, I noticed my skin felt more hydrated and radiant. The lightweight texture absorbs quickly, leaving no sticky residue, which I love. After using it consistently, my skin tone appears more even, and fine lines look diminished. I also appreciate that a little goes a long way, making it worth the investment. Overall, it’s a must-have for anyone looking to achieve a glowing complexion and improve skin texture. Highly recommended!

Must have!

The SK-II Facial Treatment Essence has been my holy grail for over 10 years now. My skin just doesn’t feel and look the same if I stop using it. The essence absorbs well and leaves your skin feeling moisturized. It brightens my complexion. It is a little pricey but lasts a long time and works so it is worth the price.

Love it!

I used the SKII essence pitara. It has a very mild scent. The essence focused on rice bran fermented and it gives my skin a very nice glow and hydration. My skin feels smooth after using it. And the packaging is very luxurious. It’s a pleasure to use. I like to use the essence after toner and before my moisturizer for smooth and clear skin!
