SK-II, Miracle In A Bottle?

I certainly am not old, but at 26 I guess it is a good age to start thinking about taking better care of my skin. It is said that the 20’s is actually a good and safe point to start using anti-aging products, and  the latest would be when you hit your 30’s. So I’ve been reading about this subject and searching for the best creams and lotions for my age. Apparently, products that includes retinol have the best effect on 20’s and 30’s skins.

I’ve been reading reviews and paying attention to commercials. It looks like there are really great stuff out there. But as I was reading a Vogue June’s edition, I saw the SK-II ad.  They have Cate Blanchett as image model. And have you noticed her skin? Cate said: “SK-II is not part of my skincare ritual… it is my skin care ritual.” After reading this, I had to go and Google this miracle in a bottle.  Pitera is the name of SK-II exclusive blend of vitamins, minerals, organic and amino acids that raises moisture levels instantly and improves skin texture and clarity.

I really want to try the SK-II Facial Treatment Essence, but at $185,00 a bottle, I will have to wait a little longer to try this one. Did you ever try this or any other anti-aging products that truly worked for you?
