SK2 facial treatment repair c



What product can make a skincareholic to stick to it for more than 2 years ?The product must be very gentle to the skin and long-term usage still perform well .This is the one-facial treatment repair c
This product claims to reduce fine line in 2 weeks.This product has been in the market for more than 10 years. Although this is not being advertised as frequent as the facial treatment essence,but this effective product is still one of the star products of sk2 .

Ingredients: Saccharomycopsis Ferment Filtrate**, Aqua (Water / Eau), Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Pentylene Glycol, Sodium Hyaluronate, Methylparaben, Sodium Benzoate.

The main ingredient for this serum is 4 times concentrated pitera(that`s why it is called as repair c,c stands for concentrated not vitamin c )For more information about the function of pitera please check my facial treatment essence post.Besides,hyaluronic acid(sodium hyaluronate) is another active ingredient for this serum,in simple it acts like a glue to hold the cells to connect tightly with each other,so the allergen can`t penetrate the skin easily to cause inflammation ,in long term it will make the skin barrier stronger.Normally we will look for the active ingredient to be in the first one third of the ingredient list,but this concept does not work on hyaluronic acid.This is because hyaluronic acid can bind to the water molecule which is 1000 times of its` own mass,so if a serum has too much hyaluronic acid but since there is no enough water molecule for the hyaluronic acid to bind with,the excess hyaluronic acid is also a waste.The paraben is negligible .Others are all formulation ingredients which will not cause sensitivity and are not comedogenic .All and all,very nice and safe ingredient.


It is a very watery and transparent serum,one drop is enough to spread all over the face which can absorb into the skin easily and leaving the skin a thin shield like feeling without stickiness .It has a very classical sk2 smell,some kind like saliva =) some may found it stink.The longer you keep ,the stronger the smell.After using for 3 days,you can see your skin becomes more hydrate and brighter dramatically.This does not work on me alone,my brother as well.After using for 1 month you can see the skin texture becomes finer,smaller pore and even fairer.The fine lines around the eyes and smile lines are even up but if you have a very deep wrinkles ,I don’t think it will work.

Pros:very effective,gentle,personally I highly recommend this serum
Cons:expensive,but can last for 6 months since it only use at night and only 1 drop is required

Application:it is best to use at night after toner before moisturizer

Available in all sk2 counters ,rp RM 379 for 30 ml.*If you purchase sk2 products worth RM 600 you can even ask for a 15 ml repair c as your free gift from some generous sk2 beauty consultants.

  1. I didn't know about SK-II product before. I'll look forward for it this product. However, I believe that the safest and effective skin care product can be made at home using fruits, vegetables, yogurt, lemon, and honey only.
