Essence is one of those skincare items that I thought had too much hype.  Two years ago when I had oilier skin, I honestly didn’t see much of a change in my skin.  Now that my skin is drier (and slightly older ha), SK-II Facial Treatment Essence has become miracle product.  After using it, it feels more supple, softer, and moisturized.  I can definitely see a difference when I use it – my makeup melts into my skin.  It’s an investment in your skincare, but I believe spending more money on anti-aging skincare is far more beneficial than spending a lot on other beauty products.

Its main ingredient is Pitera, a naturally-derived liquid from yeast fermentation.  This ingredient contains amino acids, vitamins, organic acids and minerals that help with your skin’s firmness, texture, radiance, spot control and wrinkle resilience.  By using SK-II Facial Treatment Essence over time, it helps to lock in moisturize and overcomes dryness caused by extremely hot, cold, and dry conditions.  Chiara from Blonde Salad traveled to the desert to test out SK-II Facial Treatment Essence in the extreme heat, which the video below:
