Sake skin hydration

Filed in archive Beauty on March 20, 2006

Looking for beauty stuff to recommend, I stumbled upon a SheFinds article by Kim, talking about SK II Facial Treatment Concentrate.

Kim writes about how much she loves the product, and the girls from MakeUpAlley agree. Their skin looks much younger, the fine wrinkles are gone, blemishes and capillary as well.

As you can find on the SK II official web site: ...Pitera, one of nature's purest sources of skin renewal, is the magical ingredient found in all SK-II products. A singular blend of vitamins, amino acids, proteins and organic acids work together to produce a seemingly miraculous rebirth of the skin through stimulation and renewal of the outer layer, allowing the skin's natural rejuvenation process to function at its prime... Pitera is extracted during the sake brewing process, and was discovered by a Japanese monk.

You can find a few of SK II products at Saks. But, be prepared for a price shock: the SK II Facial treatment Concentrate will cost you $300! Well, I guess the monks of Japan need a lot of incense sticks :)

You can try to find a better deal at Cosmetic America, where they offer a larger range of SK II products, or you can start small and try the SK II hydrating UV cream for 'only' $83.

As long as I'm concerned, I've developed a nice talent to save up money by not eating lunch and avoiding to pay for drinks when going out (the same goes for having dinner), so I'll get my hands on the $300 concentrate in no time and report back.
