Brand note
SK-II is the Japanese brand that built its reputation on one ingredient: Pitera, a fermented yeast extract that shows up across their line. The Facial Treatment Essence is the anchor — a watery, lightweight step meant to go on after cleansing and before serums. Creators (including board-certified derms) describe it as a long-game product that can help with texture, hydration, and resilience over time, and they specifically recommend it for sensitive skin that can't handle vitamin C or acids.
