What is PITERA™: PITERA™ is SK-II’s proprietary, natural bio-ingredient derived from fermentation.
PITERA™ Origin: In the 1970s, scientists noticed the hands of elderly Japanese sake brewers looked younger than their age.
The scientists wondered if something in the fermentation process kept the skin looking younger. Further research into fermentation, led to the discovery of PITERA™.
What’s Makes PITERA™ Unique: PITERA™ contains over 50 micro-nutrients including vitamins, minerals, and amino acids to nourish and improve your skin from multiple dimensions, reducing visible skin damage.
