The fascinating story behind SK-II began at a sake brewery in Japan, where scientists noticed the elderly workers had wrinkled faces, but extraordinarily soft and youthful hands. These hands were in constant contact with the sake fermentation process. It took years of research for scientists to isolate the miracle ingredient Pitera®, a naturally-occurring liquid from the yeast fermentation process.
Since then, SK-II with Pitera® has become the beauty regimen of many celebrities and beautiful women around Asia and the world. Today, these women have the pleasure of a luxury which the elderly Japanese women unwittingly enjoyed.
