It's almost December now and end of year is getting closer and closer. For me who celebrate Christmas, it's the most wonderful time of the year. The festivities, family gathering, and of course the gifts. Have you start preparing the gifts that you will buy? Or have you been listing who's been naughty or nice like Santa? hahaha
If not, then I have a perfect gifting option for you. Want to know more, come on, keep on reading then :)
SK-II has been campaigning #ChangeDestiny throughout the year which I admire a lot. A powerful empowerment campaign which conveys an inspiration for women all around the world to go beyond limitations to achieve the destiny that you want. I especially fascinated by this following video from SK-II. A story from Misa Kuranaga, a Japanese ballet dancer who became the principal ballerina for Boston Ballet despite her petite figure.
In line with their campaign, this festive season, SK-II presents Wings of Change bottles, three beautifully designed Facial Treatment Essence bottles. It's limited edition and they are amazingly gorgeous! Like really really gorgeous!
Watch the video of Wings of Change below and you will see how amazing this campaign is.
Last Saturday, I got invited by Female Daily Network to SK-II Indonesia Festive Blogger Party at Mal Kelapa Gading, where SK-II Indonesia introduced us to those lovely bottles.
Susan Bachtiar, the brand ambassador of SK-II Indonesia and Amalia Hayati, a beauty and skincare guru are there to share their festive season experience, especially about gifting. Susan told us that for her, a gift should be something personal and meaningful, that's why she never give food as a present for somebody because food doesn't feel that personal for her. As for Amalia, she believed that beauty products can be a lovely and thoughtful gift for our loved ones. She said that she would be very happy when her close friends give her beauty products.
Susan also adds that SK-II has the perfect gift set because SK-II always launches beautiful limited edition for holiday season that makes it not only a skincare, but also a collectible items. She said that she has her own collection of Facial Treatment Essence bottles in different designs from past holiday seasons. SK-II gift set is precious for your loved ones or even for yourself. Consider it as a wonderful treat after a whole year of working hard to achieve your dreams.
This festive season we celebrate three traits that is essential to have in order to change our destiny. Those traits are Boldness, Encouragement, and Perseverance. Inspired by two creatures, a butterfly and hummingbird, which represent the beauty of transformation and an ability to soar through beyond the possibilities, the bottles come in three different designs and colors.
Boldness, the red butterfly bottle represents passion and courage in taking control of your destiny. A bottle for someone who really knows what she wants and not afraid to pursue it.
Encouragement, the fuchsia butterfly bottle represents love, affection, and trust. A bottle for someone whose heart is full of love and support for the people around her. Making other people happy is one of her life goals.
Perseverance, the blue hummingbird bottle represents the spirit of persistence and dedication. A bottle for someone who has a strong willpower and never give up to achieve her dreams and goals.
Do you know that you can take the mini quiz to know which personality that fits you? Go to www.skii-wingsofchange.com to find it out! Mine is Boldness :)
But personally I'm falling head over heels with the blue hummingbird bottle because the color is so vibrant and lovely! Blue is my other favorite color other than pink, so I adore this bottle a lot. I wish that this bottle will magically appear under my christmas tree hahaha
The event continued with a short session from SK-II Beauty Advisor on how to apply SK-II skincare correctly to our faces. Before the BA demonstrate how to apply the products, she did a skin check first to the model using SK-II Magic Ring. This tool can help us to know our skin condition by checking five different spectrums of our skin which are Texture Refinement, Firmness Power, Wrinkle Resilience, Spot Control, and Radiance Enhancement.
Normally, your skin is in okay condition when each of the spectrum reach 50%. Below 50% is bad and above 50% is good to great. This way, we get to know which spectrum that we need to pay extra care to. For example, if you have 40% Radiance Enhancement and 35% Wrinkle Resilience, it means that you need to add products that can help your skin glows and an anti aging to fight the unwanted wrinkles. So, make sure that you are using the right products and give your skin what it needed.
The basic steps are:
- Starts with a toner (Facial Treatment Clear Lotion or other type of SK-II toner) after you cleansed your face to freshen up your skin and lift the skin's dead cells. Apply it using a cotton pad and swipe it in upward motion on your face.
- Continue with Facial Treatment Essence to hydrate and prepare your skin for the serum and moisturizer. You can apply it using a cotton pad by tapping it lightly to your face or pour some on your palm and pat it all over your face.
- The next step is serum. Apply the serum depends on what your need is. You can dot it to five points of your face or simply rub it between your palms then spread it out on your face in upward motions.
- Seal it with moisturizer. This one is also depends on what your skin needs based on your skincheck result. The application is similar like serum application.
- On daytime, do not forget to use sunscreen on top of those layers to protect your skin from the damaging sun rays.
All the make up on the three models looked beautiful and flawless.
After the make up demo, we are free to explore the atrium and check out SK-II products. I'm particularly excited to try the Magic Ring test. I have been using SK-II skincare for four years and so far I'm still in love with it every single day because SK-II has been taking an excellent care of my skin. I have tried the Magic Ring some time ago because well, who's not curious wanting to know their skin age and skin condition, right? If I have the tool, I might've done it every day hahaha.. At that time, my skin age was 23 years old. Not bad, eh? 7 years younger than my real age.
But yesterday's result really surprised me because it said that my skin age is like a 16 years old. WOW!! Seriously?? 15 years younger than my actual age? *giving myself a pat in the back*
How to find a suitable skincare for you? I would say you need to get to know your skin first, then from there, build up your skincare routines one product at a time to really find out which product that gives you the optimum result. Don't give up if you haven't find the holy grail combo or products, just like Michael Buble said, "I just haven't met you yet" *big grin*
Make sure you get enough rest, no stress, and healthy food intake because those things also matter to support you in achieving your skin goals.
It was a lovely event and I was happy to be able to catch up with some of my blogger friends and also happy because I could put a face on other blogger friends that I met virtually. Please do check SK-II festive gift set on their counters. They have many options to choose and of course they have gift with purchase too. Have a wonderful week, gorgeous people!!
Cheers,
Stef
