What it is
Unleash your boundless radiance and a radiant aura! A long-awaited renewal after 4 years! SK-II's No. 1 best-selling medicated whitening*1 serum has finally evolved. An overwhelmingly dazzling, new level of aura. From SK-II comes the long-awaited new whitening*1 serum, "GenOptics Infinite Aura Essence," after 4 years! Focusing on four types of skin dullness*2, wrinkles, and the light emitted by the skin. SK-II's No. 1*3 medicated whitening*1 serum evolved with Pitera™ x new ingredients. Based on SK-II's more than 30 years of brightening research, this medicated whitening*1 serum has evolved by focusing on new research results using the advanced research field of biophotonics. In addition to the four types of skin dullness*2 that we have focused on before, we have now focused on "aura-inhibiting substances" that prevent the light emitted from within the skin. Formulated with SK-II's unique Pitera™, as well as the whitening*1 active ingredient niacinamide*4 and newly selected bisabolol pro, this new complex ingredient, Infinite Aura Complex, penetrates deep into the stratum corneum, instantly moisturizing and leading to a brighter complexion. And with each use, it transforms your skin into an overwhelmingly dazzling, infinitely radiant aura. *1 Suppresses melanin production to prevent blemishes and freckles. *2 Brownish/grayish cloudiness (due to excessive melanin production), reddish cloudiness (due to skin roughness from dryness), yellowish cloudiness (due to lack of moisture) *3 Based on sales data of SK-II Brightening products from Q1 2022 to Q3 2024. *4 Nicotinamide W-Whitening *1 Active ingredient Pitera™: A naturally derived ingredient exclusive to SK-II, created by fermenting a special yeast strain using a unique process (SK-II's unique Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate - Skin Conditioning and Moisturizing Ingredient) (Quasi-drug) Product name: SK-II Medicated Whitening Serum ST
