Mirror mirror on the wall, who is the fairest among them all? Well, most Asian women yearned to have fair, flawless and porcelain skin, including myself. If there is a demand surely there will be many supplies therefore whitening skincare products are flooding the market. Almost every week or perhaps every day there is a new whitening product introduced to the market. Are we spoilt by choice or Are we confused which one to use? So today we are going to find out the answer together.
SK-II Cellumination Essence EX and SK-II Whitening Spots Specialist |
Cellumination Essence EX is the first essence within SK-II to
achieve the aura effect. Both Cellumination Essence EX and Whitening Spots
Specialist have the highest sales numbers within SK-II’s whitening products. It
is the most talked-about whitening essence from March-June 2012 on SK-II’s
official webpage. Plus SK-II is the first to invent the in-store Magic Ring™
test to see through skin and educate on the science of whitening. By the way,
this year SK-II Celebrates Its 15th Years of Crystal Clear Skin in Malaysia.
Denise Loong, Country
Trainer for SK-II Malaysia briefed and demonstrated to us the effective
step-by-step whitening regimen to achieve SK-II’s brilliant translucent and
spot free aura skin. There is something important and useful that I learned
from Denise during this sharing session.
SK-II Cellumination Essence EX
Helps to reduce spots plus even out skin texture and skin tone to achieve Translucent Aura
Bright Skin as if wearing light foundation. SK-II’s Cellumination Essence EX is
designed to improve both RGB balance and RGB variance for brilliant translucent
aura skin, as if you are wearing light foundation. Its Aura Bright Cocktail
with Pixel White™ evens out texture and tone from a microlevel on top of
treating spots or freckles as well as epidermis plumpness and collagen
glycation. In one week, feel the
healthy radiance. The Cellumination Essence EX demonstrates significant improvement
on micro texture evenness in just 4 weeks of application; and an improvement in
micro tone evenness in 8 weeks of application. It is recommended to be applied
after cleansing, by spreading evenly on skin. For best results, apply twice
daily, once in the day and once at night.
SK-II Whitening Spots Specialist
The Whitening Spots Specialist dives deep to the root of the
problem to reduce dark spots by cutting and loosening their roots. As a
preferred option to laser treatment, the Whitening Spots Specialist aims at
macerating five-year old stubborn dark spots in just four weeks. The gel-type
Whitening Spots Specialist caters to both morning and night use. When you apply
the moisture serum over the entire face, the active ingredients penetrate deep
into skin to cut “the root of dark spots”, which is the root cause of dark
spots. Apply Whitening Spots Specialist over the entire face after
cleansing, spreading this evenly on skin. For best results, apply twice daily,
once during the day and once at night.
Please take note, this is important. Since both products are best
so which one is suitable for our skin. SK-II Cellumination Essence EX (indoor) is for translucent aura bright skin enhance skin texture and tone eveness plus spot reduction. Where else, SK-II Whitening Spots Specialist (for outdoor sun exposure) target spot control to reduce pigmentation caused by sun exposure and prevent future visible spots.
Denise also shared useful beauty tips and the steps to massage the
products into the skin to ensure maximum effectiveness. By using Cellumination
Deep Surge EX together with Cellumination Essence EX and follow the massage, it
makes your skin feel brighter and firmer, leading to a more beautiful Aura. The massage steps; Glide from the anterior ear to the collar bone,
followed by the upward stroke and circle round the eye zone then to the
forehead and conclude at the temple. Repeat 3 times to promote micro-circulatory
flow.
I have compiled all step-by-step whitening regimen and also the
massage steps in this Picture Gallery: SK-II Cellumination Boutique and SK-II Whitening Spots Specialist Boutique. This will make it easier for you to follow
and refer.
SK-II’s No.1 whitening series of Cellumination Essence EX and
Whitening Spots Specialist are available at all SK-II counters in all major
department stores nationwide.

After the briefing and demo we were given a card to do our Magic
Ring Skin Analysis the SKI-II counter in Isetan 1Utama. I did this Magic
Ring Skin Analysis a few times before, it is important to check our skin
condition from time to time because our skin condition changes. Skin analysis
is important because it helps us understand our skin condition better and if
our skincare products work or not since it gives measurable results, and not
just based on personal assumption. So have you got your skin tested by the
SK-II Magic Ring?
Since that day was a bit crowded so I left after the demo and went
back to SK-II Isetan 1Utama counter to do did my Magic Ring Analysis another
day. The SK-II beauty consultant is quite friendly, knowledgeable and not too
hard sell. My Magic Ring result, overall my skin condition scored 75% and my skin age is 28 years old (ahemmm...). The only dimension that I have to focus more is the Texture Refinement.
After the skin analysis she
recommended the products that my skin requires. Hey you know what I got a
surprise gift after that. Yahooo… I received 1 SK-II Whitening Source Derm-Revival Mask and I used it immediately I came back from my Koh Samui Trip. Well,
you can also check out the steps and details in my previous Review: SK-II Magic Ring Skin Analysis.
Tick Tock! Tick Tock! As the clock is ticking our skin is ageing.
True or False? That is the fact accept it, the only thing we can do is to
prevent and reduced the signs of aging by using the efficient and suitable
skincare products plus practice a healthy lifestyle.
Guess how old I am? Not going to tell you, go and find out
yourself muahaha. If possible I want to be Forever 21 *dreaming* So do you want
to know what SK-II products that I am using… jeng jeng jeng
I use Facial Treatment Essence is a must because it is my
Miracle Water, Cellumination Day Surge UV my day moisturizer, Cellumination
Essence EX helps to radiates sunshine aura, Whitening Spots Specialist
prevent my pigmentations from prevailing and saying hello to me and last but
not least is the super duper Stempower moisturizer that rescue my skin every
night after a long stressful day. Well, on and off I do indulge myself going to
SK-II facials and also using SK-II mask at home. Not only that, I am putting the SK-II Mask in Lotion, Cellumination
Deep Surge EX and Cellumination Essence-in Foundation in my wish list. Ah!!! beauty is priceless right…
