This festive season, SK-II celebrates the gift that lasts – crystal clear skin that can last for years to come – with an artist collaboration that sees the iconic Facial Treatment Essence transformed with a stunning new look. The beauty essence with over 90% Pitera™ is now housed in distinctive bottles designed to represent everlasting beauty. After finishing the product, you’d definitely want to keep the bottles! So pretty!!
Taiwanese digital artist Po-Chih Huang – and 2013 winner of the prestigious Taipei Arts Awards Grand Prize – has turned his hand to beauty for a limited edition line of Facial Treatment Essence bottles for SK-II. Recognized as one of the top emerging artists to watch especially with his win in the most significant art prize for young artists in Taiwan, he has transformed the classic bottle with his signature artistic technique to create an exclusive collection for the iconic brand. Known for his use of digital technology as the chief medium in his artworks, Huang has turned that technique to create digital floral compositions for each bottle. The design draws inspiration from four flowers – tulips, freesia, hydrangea and cypress – to create an enchanting tapestry representative of the gift of everlasting beauty for the recipient.
The inspiration for the collaboration was the artist’s innovative style of transforming beauty – in particular his creative technique of working with flowers to bring out the different aspects of their beauty – which reflects SK-II’s philosophy of touching women’s lives through miracle transformations. Capturing the beauty and vitality of flowers through transformation, the collection celebrates everlasting beauty as a tribute to Pitera™’s transformative power.
THE LANGUAGE OF FLOWERS
For the first time, SK-II’s limited edition collection boasts four distinctive designs. Each design represents a different facet of beauty – passion, elegance, compassion and wisdom – that translates into a celebration of the recipient as well as a wish for them, making it the ultimate gift of the season for your loved ones.
Passion: Red Tulips
For the woman who pursues excellence and lives life to the fullest, in this design, Facial Treatment Essence is invigorated with a lively bloom of tulips that symbolize vitality and dynamism. Petals adorn the bottle in bold, energetic red strokes – the very expression of a woman’s passion.
Elegance: Yellow Freesia
The warm yellow hues of the freesia dress up the bottle in this rendition of the Facial Treatment Essence. Exquisitely beautiful, the freesia’s subtle scent and graceful appearance are the perfect metaphor for a woman’s elegance.
Compassion: Purple Hydrangea
Selected for its symbolic representation of appreciation and gratitude, the enchantingly captivating hydrangea is stamped onto the Facial Treatment Essence bottle. The soft budding petals coupled with slight variations of colours add an air of mystery to the design, the best gift for a thoughtful friend who always has you in her mind.
Wisdom: Green Cypress
Deep-rooted in strength and eternity, the green cypress climbs stylishly around the bottle in this limited edition SK-II MEN Facial Treatment Essence. The intricate pattern of overlapping leaves forms a thoughtful and cool image, making this the ultimate gift of wisdom for the man in your life.
