Review: SK-II Cellumination Day Surge UV

This new Cellumination Day Surge UV is the latest addition to SK-II whitening boutique aiming to achieve a new standard in beauty, Brilliant Translucent Aura; where bare skin is likened to skin with light foundation.

Descriptions: A dual-action whitening emulsion with UV protection SPF30 PA+++ for daytime use, Cellumination Day Surge UV primes skin to realize the full benefits of a nighttime skincare regimen through the management and prevention of daytime skin damage. 

Cellumination Day Surge UV enables whitening actives to penetrate deep into the skin surface and even out melanin distribution. Powered by a new active complex Aura Bright Cocktail ‘D’ (consisting of Pitera™, Pixel White™, De-Melano P3C™), Cellumination Day Surge UV balances skin’s red, green, and blue light (RGB) variance, paving the way to Brilliant Translucent Aura.

Reviews: I have been using the latest SK-II Cellumination Day Surge UV almost 3 weeks already. I use it together with other SK-II products such as the Facial Treatment Essence and Cellumination Essence EX. The texture of this SK-II Cellumination Day Surge UV is fluid emulsion in opaque white color. 

It is very fine and fast absorb into my skin plus I don’t feel any discomfort or sticky. It sort of leaves a matte feeling on my skin and does not clog the pores. The scent is very mild floral, I don’t really like heavy scented skincare.

One of our skin aging factors is sun exposure and living in this tropical climate country skincare product with UV protection and SPF PA+++ is crucial or a must. Everyday I use day cream or day emulsion before I apply my sunblock then followed by the rest of the make-up. 

After using this SK-II Cellumination Day Surge UV for almost 3 weeks you might want to know, is there any different in my skin, how do it feel about this product and what are the changes? First of all, when trying new product the thing that I really care is the product do not cause any skin allergy or breakouts. So the SK-II Cellumination Day Surge UV pass the first test, hehehe… this day emulsion goes well with my other skincare regime and make-up. No allergy, no discomfort, no greasy and no breakout.

Next, is the efficacy of this product. I did my skin analysis using the SK-II Magic Ring before and after using SK-II Cellumination Day Surge UV for 3 weeks. The before using the SK-II Cellumination Day Surge UV skin analysis was done during the SK-II briefing in Grand Hyatt Hotel last month on the 18^th Dec 2012 and the after skin analysis results I did it in SK-II Parkson Pavilion counter last week.

This day emulsion is quite moisturize and keeps my skin hydration balance. Plus the uneven skin tone has reduced gradually. I find that my skin tone not so yellowish and dull. After 14 days my skin starts to glow and becoming more visible. From the skin analysis results it showed that dark spots also getting lesser and smaller. It is encouraged to use this product together with SK-II Cellumination range for better results and improvements.
