The popular high-end Japanese brand released a new line called “SKINPOWER”.

I am 28 years old, a busy professional getting an average of 5 hours of sleep a day. My skin profile is as follows:

  • Combination skin (but mostly on the oily side)
  • Acne scars (and the occasional acne)
  • Light-medium skin
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Fine lines starting to show around eyes and forehead
  • Overall dull skin

What I’m looking for in this skincare product:

  • Anti-aging
  • Not too heavy (as I tend to be oily especially during warmer seasons)
  • Help with dullness

I’ve been using SK-II’s Pitera™ Facial Treatment Essence for half a year now and have been a fan since the first bottle. But since their products are on the expensive side, I decided not to buy the entire line-up then. As I turned 28, I realized that I am getting old very quickly (I was just 20 yesterday???) and that my current skincare routine comprised of lightweight moisturizers is no longer enough.

I stopped by an SK-II store at Shibuya, told them my concerns, and the beautiful Japanese women recommended their new ~SKINPOWER~ lineup. I was probably too naive to believe them…

Writing as a coping mechanism (and to silence this noisy mind at 3am). By no means a professional writer.
