SK-II
Facial Treatment Essence
Skin Balancing Essence. Women everywhere are so passionate about Facial Treatment Essence that they describe it as their ‘miracle water’. Pitera, the seemingly magical ingredient found in all SK-II products, helps restore vital balance by promoting the skin’s natural 28-day surface renewal process. This single blend of vitamins, amino acids, minerals, and organic acids produces a seemingly miraculous rebirth of appearance. With over 90% pure Pitera, Facial Treatment Essence is the ‘heart’ of every SK-II Skincare ritual. Rely on it daily to moisturise, balance, and renew. Skin absorbs the benefits almost on contact. The result is supple, smooth, radiant skin.
Loving the fact that Cate Blanchett is the image model of SK-II. I’m a huge fan of the actress. And with all the good things I’ve been hearing and reading about Procter & Gamble’s premier beauty brand, SK-II, I reckon I can become a huge fan of it too.
I was impressed with Aqua Physics. Twas the first time I came across Pitera and I was then just getting to know the brand. Then I fell in love with the Air Touch Foundation.
Suggested application: Sprinkle about a teaspoon of Facial Treatment Essence into the cupped palm of your hand. Rub hands together and press gently and evenly onto face and neck. Your skin will absorb the Essence quickly and naturally.
I reckon applying nourishing elements directly onto the skin will help boost moisture and cell renewal. For someone like me who’s on her 30s, we need all the help we can get to maintain a more youthful and luminous skin. It’s not necessarily trying to stop aging but just easing into it gracefully. I really don’t want to go under the knife just to salvage whatever’s left. Eeep. Not only is that scary, it’s also expensive! Gah.
All I need now is to get my hands on one to seal the deal. Best of luck. SK-II products are sooo expensive!
Facial Treatment Essence in 215ml costs $170 (or $158.50 promo) over at StrawberryNet.com.
Facial Treatment Essence in 75ml costs $49.99 over at eBay.
See what I mean? Most of the good products are expensive.
Honestly, I’m not sure how effective this product is. All I hear is that a lot of women swear by it. I’m certainly hoping I’ll get an opportunity to try it out in the future. All I need to work on is procuring it.
Have any of you guys tried the SK-II Facial Treatment Essence? Let me know how your experience went? I’d love to know more about it. Also, do any of you use any sort of “Essence”? Share!

I tried lifecell and its fine. However, I must recommend a cream I STOPPED using because after 6 months it permenantly improved my face. Its called the “Vitamin enhanced face firming serum†from the Made from Earth product line. You see it firm your face after you put it on and since its organic and chemical free – in the long run – i have now stopped using it because my face has really firmed up!!
I am SO glad i purchased the “Made from Earth” detox and renew products. Its is the healthiest microdermabrasion out there….and its all chemical free…
I have only used them for the last 2 weeks and WOW! I almost didn’t use it last night because i thought my skin was already pretty smooth but i couldn’t resist – i was just too excited.
First, let me say that i am 29, a student in graduate school. When i first went to college for many months my acne progressively got worse. I tried Proactiv but it was too drying, other drugstore brands (that used to work until my skin worsened), and even went on a prescription for a month for acne (i hated it).
Then i began trying products to retain moisture – and i LOVE the Made from Earth Vitamin Enhanced Moisturizer for that. Having success with it encouraged me to try their detox also – which is the “rooibos Tea Face Scrub”.
I wanted to try it because while much of my blemishes are gone, my skin doesn’t look very healthy. I have some scars that blend with my freckles and my skin tone looks terrible. I wanted professional microdermabrasion but i am a college student – not gonna happen on my salary. Plus, I am super healthy and dont want to put any harmful chemicals in my body or on my skin.
Luckily i did splurge and spent around $120 on this kit and i am so glad i did.. .it comes with a discount of you buy both rpoducts together. . .
It has removed some of the dry skin patches near my nostrils and left my skin even softer! Softer than i ever imagined! The combination of the scrub daily and the enhanced moisturizer have greatly reduced my blackheads and my skin feels firmer.
This will be in my skin care routine FOREVER! For a graduate college student, this is a bit pricey – but it works! So stop wasting money on cheaper things that don’t work and try this.
I bought online at madefromearth.com …some reviews also said its cheaper to buy online
