Review of a ₹20,000 face serum

The article reviews SK-II Facial Treatment Essence, priced at ₹20,000.

SK-II originated in Japan in the early 1980s and was launched in India recently, available on Nykaa.

The essence uses PITERA™, a signature ingredient derived from sake fermentation, discovered by Japanese scientists.

After a month of use, the author reported that the essence worked deep into the skin to improve texture and appearance, beyond basic hydration.

The author found the product worth the high price, contrary to their initial skepticism about expensive serums.
