"When I first heard about this project, I asked "Really? Are we really doing this again? But I was clear on one thing - this is not a repeat. If it was, I will consider myself a failure." shared Tangwei, reflecting on the process of filming the remake for "My PITERA™ Story". "10 years. It's been 10 years with SK-II and PITERA™ Essence has always been there for me. Since the beginning till this day, SK-II is my Miracle Water. I think the first step of loving yourself starts with good skin. When you learn to love your skin, you learn to love yourself. PITERA™ Essence has changed my skin and life. It is irreplaceable to me, my one and only."

"It's been more than 10 years since I've been using PITERA™ Essence so it's like part of my life. Each CM I did with SK-II was memorable. It's the type of CM that makes my heart race," added Ayase Haruka, as she opened up about filming her remake for "My PITERA™ Story". "Looking back at my very first CM, I do feel a little embarrassed. But being able to completely remake this again makes me truly happy. I am who I am and was able to change my attitude towards caring for my skin because of this meeting with SK-II and PITERA™ when I was 25 years old. SK-II is my partner. That is how I feel."

Talking about her journey with PITERA™ Essence, Chloe Moretz shared, "Here I am, almost 4 years since the first ad for the Bare Skin Project, to share my PITERA™ story. My first PITERA™ Essence bottle gave me the courage to go bare skin in such a public way. Lately, my life has gotten really busy with filming. And that busyness hasn't exactly been kind to my skin. But after a few years with PITERA™, I am pretty sure my skin will be able to stand up to the close scrutiny and I could pull off this remake."

"Doing this remake holds a lot of meaning for me. For over 7 years now, PITERA™ Essence has been a constant to me. It's been my essential travel companion, work companion, giving me confidence that my skin will be at its best no matter the situation l am in," added Nini. "We've gone through a lot together. PITERA™ Essence is my skin's best friend."

About SK-II
For more than 40 years, SK-II has touched the lives of millions of women around the world through skin and life transformation. The fascinating story behind SK-II began with a quest to understand why elderly sake brewers had wrinkled faces, but extraordinarily soft and youthful-looking hands. These hands were in constant contact with the sake fermentation process. It took years of research for scientists to isolate the miracle ingredient PITERA™, a naturally-derived liquid from the yeast fermentation process. Since then, SK-II with PITERA™ has become a special secret shared by celebrities all over the world such as Chloe Grace Moretz, Simone Biles, Tangwei, Nini, Chun Xia, Haruka Ayase and Kasumi Arimura and Naomi Watanabe.
