SK-II Facial Treatment Essence relies on Pitera (Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate) to act as a biological catalyst for skin surface renewal. This yeast-derived ferment is rich in vitamins and amino acids that mimic the skin’s Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF). The professional-grade formula is designed to improve skin translucency and refine surface texture without the use of traditional chemical exfoliants.
The minimalist, alcohol-free formulation encourages metabolic renewal on the skin's surface. Users report a significant increase in visible radiance and clarity. To maintain the benefits of the fermentation process, it is recommended to apply the essence using a patting motion and to follow with a product that conditions the skin's surface to prevent moisture loss.
