As if we weren’t torn enough over which limited edition ‘Wings of Change’ bottle of SK-II’s Facial Treatment Essence we liked better, the brand has gone on and released another new design for the Lunar New Year. 

Combining the age-old tradition of this festive occasion with a modern take, the new design called the ‘Phoenix Rebirth’ is a beautiful juxtaposition that proves a stunning addition to any of your Chinese New Year celebrations.

Inspired by the traditional folk art of ornate paper cutting known as ‘jian-zhi’, the bold holographic design features a phoenix with its wings outstretched, ready to lift off into the sky.

The mythical bird is chosen for multiple reasons that resound with SK-II’s principles – it is symbolic of eternal beauty regardless of what stage of life you’re at and with its grace and high virtue, continually rebirths to greater heights.

The special edition bottle also comes bearing touches of red – the Chinese’ favoured colour of auspiciousness – making it perfect for gifting this CNY, whether to a loved one or yourself.
