help SK-II Facial Treatment Essence FAQ
What is Pitera and where does it come from in SK-II products?
Pitera is SK-II's proprietary ingredient consisting of a nutrient-rich filtrate produced by fermenting a specific yeast strain. The ingredient was discovered when SK-II scientists observed the remarkably smooth hands of elderly workers at a sake brewery in Japan and investigated the fermentation byproduct as a skincare ingredient.
How do you apply SK-II Facial Treatment Essence correctly?
SK-II recommends pouring about a teaspoon of the essence into your palm and gently pressing it onto cleansed and toned skin with both hands, rather than rubbing. The product should be applied both morning and evening before serums and moisturizers.
How long does a bottle of SK-II Facial Treatment Essence last?
With twice-daily use of the recommended amount, a standard 160ml bottle typically lasts approximately two to three months. Many users stretch their supply by using smaller amounts per application, though SK-II recommends against diluting the product.
