Tried & Tested: Is SK-II\u2019s Renowned PITERA™ Worth Adding To Your Skincare Regime?<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Two weeks ago, SK-II<\/a> kindly sent us their iconic PITERA™ Essence a.k.a Facial Treatment Essence<\/a>, award-winning R.N.A Power Radical New Age Essence<\/a> and R.N.A Power Airy Milky Lotion<\/a> to review and discover the true Power of PITERA™.<\/p>\n

Word is, the PITERA™ Essence is the perfect treat for your skin with great skin-revitalising and hydrating properties that are suitable for various skin types – including oily, combination and dry skin. The R.N.A range is the brand\u2019s signature anti-ageing range which works efficiently to target the signs of ageing such as fine lines for youthful, supple skin.<\/p>\n

We have heard of the legendary PITERA™ ingredient found in all of the brand\u2019s best-selling products one too many times. Admittedly, we have yet to do a deep dive into the benefits of it so obviously, we absolutely could\u00a0NOT<\/u><\/em>\u00a0wait to test these cult-favourites out and share our experience.<\/p>\n

Step #1:

The Power of PITERA™<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The PITERA™ Essence is unarguably SK-II\u2019s most popular product and is probably how most if not all of us first came to hear of the brand. The Facial Treatment Essence is made up of more than 90% PITERA™, the natural bio-ingredient which contains over 50 micro-nutrients like vitamins, minerals, amino acids and organic acids to restore and enhance skin health, translucency and smoothness.<\/p>\n

Fun fact: The fascinating story behind SK-II and PITERA™ began with a quest to understand why elderly sake brewers had wrinkled faces, but incredibly soft and smooth hands. This ultimately unlocked the secret to the Power of PITERA™<\/a>, \u00a0which is exclusive to SK-II.<\/p>\n

How to use\u00a0the SK-II PITERA™ Essence<\/strong><\/h3>\n

To test this out, I followed the recommended application method of patting it directly onto your skin morning and night, after cleansing and toner. Within a couple of days, my complexion became clearer and felt more supple and hydrated.<\/p>\n

Fast forward to two weeks later, there is now a stark difference in how my skin looks. On top of feeling more hydrated, my previously dull and tired complexion now looks brighter and more radiant. I also noticed a slight glow starting to appear.<\/p>\n

In terms of texture, the PITERA™ Essence has a silky, lightweight consistency akin to water and takes to the skin smoothly without stickiness. I was pleased that it did not agitate my sensitive skin and felt my foundation went on more smoothly when I used it to prep my skin before makeup.<\/p>\n
