For clearer skin with texture, firmness, and radiance.
Over 35 years later, SK-II's Facial Treatment Essence is still loved by consumers and has won numerous beauty awards. 90% of the essence is made of Pitera™, a natural ingredient that is rich in vitamins, amino acids, minerals, and other useful ingredients. Pitera™ is a natural component of the skin.
Pitera™ also helps to maintain moisture in the stratum corneum, which is responsible for the skin's barrier function.
By regularly incorporating Pitera™ into your skincare regimen, you can improve your skin's natural functioning and achieve a smooth, radiant, clear skin filled with moisture.
Essence made of over 90% natural Pitera ingredients.
Pitera is produced through a natural fermentation process under strict control.
It is a clear, colorless liquid rich in vitamins, amino acids, minerals, and organic acids.
The skin has a natural moisturizing component (NMF).
NMF is the determining factor in improving the clarity, softness, and smoothness of the skin.
SK-II's unique ingredient, Pitera, has been found to contain the same components as this NMF.
Pitera, the one and only ingredient that symbolizes SK-II, is the fruit of wisdom and research cultivated in Japan.
