Changing seasons call for changing skin care, especially after taking a beating from the sun all summer. Sure, SPF is vital, but the heat alone may cause your skin to become massively dehydrated, thus losing elastin, suppleness, and tone. Once the weather cools and beach time is less of a priority, work on lightening age spots, softening rough skin, and reversing some of the wear and tear from summer rays. Here are some of my secret weapons for reducing dark spots and fine lines, tightening skin, and hydrating.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”4864″ img_size=”large”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
SK-II Facial Treatment Essence
The claim: SK-II’s signature product has over 90% Pitera, an anti-aging ingredient rich in vitamins, amino acids, minerals, and organic acids. This treatment helps to improve the appearance of five dimensions of clear skin: Spots are less visible, the appearance of wrinkles is reduced, skin texture is more refined, firmness is improved, and radiance is beautifully elevated. Its irreplaceable formula gently exfoliates the face and helps moderate the skin surface renewal cycle.
Why I love it: It’s lightweight and feels splendid when applied. I see an improvement in the tone of my skin.
