Holy grail skincare

I’ve been using this essence for almost 20 years now. It’s one skincare product that is ALWAYS in my routine. It gives my combination oily skin hydration, balance, and a beautiful natural radiance.

Top skincare

The SK-II essence is packed with Patera essence, the ingredient that smoothes aging skin wrinkles and prevents more from forming. The essence has multiple hyaluronic acids to moisturize the skin and natural nutrients to protect the face from a rough environment. I highly recommend this product!

Not sure what this does but use it anyway

I got this in Japan and it was a limited edition design so the regular bottle is clear and you could see the liquid inside. I really like how this feels on my skin, but I’m not exactly sure what it does which is why I’m only giving it four stars. I always apply it at night after washing my face and before moisturizing.

Lightweight and effective

I find this product effective. It's very light, easily absorbed by skin. I have an oily skin so I appreciate lightweight products. It's kind of expensive though.

Not worth the money. Too expensive!

I think this product is it’s either you really like it or you don’t. This has a lot of fermented ingredients which can irritate acne or sensitive skin. I got fungal acne from using this. However, my sister loves this product. But there is a dupe for it, which is quarter of the price. This is way too expensive. The dupe brand is called Missha time revolution

Expensive but effective

This is a lovely essence: super lightweight (almost like water), and it absorbs quickly without feeling greasy. It does deliver a nice glow and more even skin tone after consistent use. I usually dont like fragrance in my skincare, but the smell of this essence is not too strong and does not bother me at all . Also, it’s pretty expensive, so while it’s effective, whether it’s worth, it depends a lot on your budget and how much difference you need.

A Luxurious Little Bottle That Gave My Skin a Glow

I picked up the mini size of the SK-II Facial Treatment Essence to see what the hype was all about without committing to the full-size bottle (because, let’s be honest — it’s pricey!). After using it consistently for about two weeks, I get why it has a cult following. The essence is super lightweight, almost like water, but it sinks into the skin quickly and leaves it feeling refreshed, soft, and hydrated. I didn’t expect dramatic results from such a small bottle, but even in that short time, my skin looked more even-toned and had a subtle glow. It's especially great after cleansing, when your skin can feel a little stripped — it brings that bounce and balance back. That said, the scent is a bit... unique (slightly yeasty, due to the Pitera), but it fades quickly. If you're curious about SK-II but hesitant about the price, the mini is a great way to test it out. It’s definitely a splurge, but it feels like a small luxury that your skin will thank you for.
