Staying home doesn’t mean you should be neglecting your skin. Elevate your skincare routine with our top picks from SK-II.
The one thing I have learned from being stuck at home this season is the fact that acts of self-care have never been more important. Taking the time to ask yourself how you are feeling and occasionally indulging in a pampering skincare session to chase the stress and anxiety away have never been more essential. Moreover, if you have already gone from “lockdown dullness” to “glow up Raya”, do not let that glow go to waste. Keep it up by elevating your skincare routine with some of our top picks from luxury Japanese beauty brand SK-II and the goodness of their signature PITERA™ ingredient.
PITERA™ is derived from a natural fermentation process of a special yeast strain that is exclusive to SK-II and the discovery of this powerful ingredient began with a quest to understand why elderly sake brewers had wrinkled faces, but extraordinarily soft and youthful-looking hands. Known for its transformative powers, we cannot think of a better time to pamper ourselves with this nourishing skincare wonder after all the stress and anxiety we have had to deal with in recent months.
Whether you are looking to take that Raya-glow to the next level, or your skin is suffering the effects of too much screen time such as eye bags and blemishes hile working from home, we have the full lowdown on how to get crystal clear skin in just six simple steps:
A good cleanse is everything
There is nothing quite like a refreshing face wash to start your day right and the SK-II Facial Treatment Gentle Cleanser is everything a good cleanser should be. The foaming face wash effectively removes all impurities without stripping moisture away. Formulated with both PITERA™ and White Willow Extract, this cleanser gently exfoliates and balances sebum levels while leaving skin smooth, soft and with a healthy glow.
To use, first wet face lightly, then take a pea-sized amount of cleanser onto your palm. Work cleanser into a foamy lather with water and gently cleanse the face and neck in circular motions before rinsing off.
