I appreciate that you can clearly see the real skin , texture, pores in this video. I would consider Michelle to have one of the most flawless skins so to see that as good as your skin can be you are still human and you'll obviously have a little bit of texture or discoloration is making me feel much more better! My point is it's more achievable than what i thought "perfect skin" is. I was always upset that I'll never ever achieve perfect skin because i was unlucky with genetics (even after a greatly built skincare regimen). But i can say that my skin has been getting better and better every year after changes in my diet and having a working consistent skincare. There is hope my sisters!
And Michelle is looking absolutely gorgeous
know if
This is what good skin is. Healthy looking. As an aesthetician, this is what I wish for clients. Healthy, plump and beautiful. This is achievable!

I miss your soothing voice the most michelle. You're the reason why I got into beauty, especially as a WOC.
What is WOC?? is that a new product
@@lisavanderpump7475 it’s women of color :)
the skii sheet masks are the BEST they make ur skin feel so firm
princesss
This is true I was shocked in a good way
Omgg i 100% agree they are the best sheet masks I’ve ever tried I get them in bulk now😂
Honestly I’m a dude and I’ve always loved Michelle’s videos exactly because of her soothing voice, been a watcher from the rice bunny/xanga days just to have a soothing voice in the background. Learned a lot about makeup though lol
I didn’t even know that SK-II was released in the 80’s. The fact that it’s still an industry standard to this day speaks volumes. Specially in a time when the skincare market resembles fast fashion with new gimmicks constantly popping up and phasing out. They were wise to collab with you on this, the OG beauty guru x the OG essence. I will definitely give Pitera essence a try when I can afford it someday.
I didn't believe in SKII thinking it was just some overpriced overmarketed product but my mom started using it and it WORKS -- like Michelle said it's much easier to see the results when you get older
It's easier to see the result when you stop as well. My skin looks duller after I stop using it.
I swear by it. Especially the essence. Whenever I have breakout or anything I just put that on my cotton pad and leave it on like sheet mask and the pimple usually disappears the next day. I have been using it for 4 or 5 year already. It work amazingly. My skin look good and no fine line or anything appear yet even though I’m sick at skincare 😂
This is the same experience i have!
I bought it and used a whole bottle and nothing happened. It was $100 of regret haha
You have always been skin goals! I believe you are the first channel I subscribed to back in the day. Love you, Michelle!
I have this question all these years! Appreciate this video. Thanks for encouraging and reminding, it is never too late to start on skincare ❤️
You really start seeing the “claims” of skincare in your 30s, which I’m in. I use this product. I swear by it. I notice a difference when I stop. It just makes your face brighter and less dull looking. I put it in a little spray bottle. Spray on my face and press in. I don’t want to waste ANY of it on my hands. This product is absolutely worth the price, and the dupes just don’t compare.
I would go back to using your hands, spraying it in the air it will evaporate and you'll lose more!
fr when my mom was using sk ii her skin looked so healthy. sometimes i would also use their cleansing balm and facial wash and they are soooo good. so soft and moisturizing. i can't afford it rn but when i do, i will definitely switch to sk ii
hey i just wanted to ask how often do you use it? ✨ twice a day, every day?
What you're doing to supposedly minimize wasting the product doesn't really make any sense. When you spray it you create aerosols, which means you're wasting a lot to the air/evaporation before it even touches your face. Plus you say you're still pressing it in afterwards, so it's still coming in contact with your hands, aka "wasting" it on your hands.
@@MelisaBalcii I have use it twice everyday for year. It’s a very good product. Doesn’t matter who else tell me to change to sth else, I’d still stick to it. And other great products from skII is there milk moisturiser. Can’t remember the name exactly but it’s a great product.
I've been watching you since I was ten years old. I was fascinated with your halloween makeup tutorials and got into makeup and everything beauty related because of you
I miss this! Your the one that inspire me to do skincare. I was so lazy and didn't care about my skin before but when I watched your videos and saw the importance of it. I started to do skincare seriously. Hoping to see more videos ☺️❤️
Michelle, your RUclips videos have honestly been a good source of comfort since I was a little boy and I still gladly your videos till this day 😌
It’s so Crazy That your First Video is 15 years old already omg
You used to inspire me so much to play with Make-up - loved every minute of your tutorials ! And I totally agree on your statement that skincare is a somewhat selflove and that we should take the time to do it and treat ourselves right.
Sadly never used the skII essence because I think it is a little bit too expensive for me. I know there is a lot of hype on it and it’s probably worth it. I also am quite lucky with my skin. It’s just a bit sensitive but otherwise I don’t have any problems with it. I usually use aloe Vera on my skin - the brand I use is called Santa verde and they grow their own aloe Vers plants and their skincare line is really good ( I mostly use their eyecreme, beauty rich elixir, hydro repair gel and sensitive toner on a daily basis) - I also tried tata Harper (just testers of their eyecreme and blemish spot remover ) and I really liked the results too. And I also fall in love recently with the Lilah b aglow face mist - it’s so easy to apply and leaves my skin super soft. I usually barely wear makeup nowadays (never wore face makeup (only eyemakeup and blush - nowadays I only use blush and highlighter( sometimes eyeliner) and I started setting my skin with the hourglass veil soft focus setting spray- I know it’s probably not skin care but I must say it leaves my skin super dewy and soft and my skin reacts pretty good to it throughout the day.
I barely use face masks because I never found a face mask where I didn’t get a rash from - idk mostly tried out some from korean brands - but didn’t really get along with them although their skincare also has pretty good reviews ! I recently also heard about this korean brand called dear klairs - what do you think about them ? Have you tried any of their products ?
Just want to remind everyone that fermented skincare is not something for every skintype. I really wanted to love Skii, but it broke me out really, really bad, and it took me almost a year to recover from it :( though I know many friends who swear by this product :)
so my point is, do always rmb to patch test and observe carefully when you first start to incorporate a new skincare! :)
what skin type do you have?
I never patch test. This was a really good reminder. Thank you. ❤️
1000% on the patch test. Thank you for sharing!
It’s true fermented ingredients in products do not work for my skin either
Mine either
Still remember your first few videos and glad to have u back!!!!
love this video michelle
I'm in love with every video you are making since you came back!! I admire you so much!!!🌸💖
I can't believe that you uploaded you're first video 15 years ago and that it's already almost 14 years that I first time watched you're video. All this years you're my favorite youtuber, you were my inspiration and helped me a lot when it comes to make up. I just love to listen to your voice, it always make me calm and relaxed. I love you! ❤❤❤
I miss Michelle's beauty videos. You were the first and the OG "beauty youtuber" and honestly the only one I ever followed hardcore. I learned SO much from you. I still want to recreate your summer makeup look (I believe it was the "snow cone" look. You were always so positive and kind and even before high school and before I even ACTUALLY tried to use makeup I just remembered so much from you, about skincare, the DIYs and makeup looks. I like how raw and honest you always have been in your videos.
Yay! New video from Mish!!! Love your hair here!
The dedication you put into this review is amazing! I'm actually persuaded to try this seeing as you put more than a month into testing this essence out for us.
Great video! I haven't followed a proper skincare routine in ages, I have all the products & most of them unopened. This video made me want to start taking care of my skin & the motivation to finally use the new skincare products I have. I've use a trial size of SKII, it was apart of the Soko to Tokyo Sephora gift set a few years ago 2017. It was one of the reasons I bought the set for $40 a great price!
I’m in my 30s and have always been curious about the skII essence because it was so popular a long time ago but back then I was not able to justify the price and wasn’t sure if it was overhyped product. In the last few years I have been using Fresh’s black tea kombucha essence as part of my skincare and do enjoy it. Seeing you document your journey of the skII has given me more confidence to try it as my next product once I finish the Fresh one. Thanks Michelle! : ) I’ve watched your videos for a while now and glad to see your video pop up from time to time because you keep it so real.
It's aight. It's not worth the price.
Your videos always give serotonin!
I get so excited when you upload:) I’m glad to say I’ve been here since day one😌
Thank you for being on RUclips 💗💗💗
OH my gosh I can't believe you're still making videos! I love it! I watched you back when you started on RUclips but I haven't seen you in probably over a decade. Oh my God I love that you're still making videos! I'm excited to catch up on your journey! 💚💚💚 I miss you!
Michelle I’ve been watching your videos since I’ve been a little girl and never forget all the tips you give. I love this video, thank you so much for making this! I’m going to try this asap!
I've always wondered about SK-II and I learned a lot watching this video! Thank you for this. 💕
I love following the sk II essence with the peach and Lilly glass serum. It’s such an amazing combo!
I’ve been using SKii for a few years. I started with essence. Now I’m using the clear lotion toner. Love this line !!
Michelle you're the reason why I know how use liquid liner when you posted many years back ago
You are the most ethereal RUclipsrs. Incredible talent, smarts and beauty.
Viva Michelle! I love this. Thx for your honesty. Now I'll try it for sure 😊
I love your videos. You gave me more inspiration to use more color in my eyeshadows. This video is inspiring me to really get focused and take my skin care seriously. I know i need to hold myself accountable with being healthier with what I put in and on my body.
All your videos are so soothing and educational! ❤️ I can’t afford to try the SK-II Essence right now but I definitely want to try it one day, the idea behind it is captivating! 😍
Wow! The end result is astounding
I also used SKII Pitera back when I was in my 20s at that time it didn't really do anything to my skin, I guess it was just like you I had really good skin back then. Now I'm close to 50 and I started using SKII again and I can tell you that it really does work , well at least for me. My skin feels firmer and brighter.
This is my kind of content! Skincare is everything 🤎
Why do I want to burst into tears at the end of every video when she says “good luck!”? It’s like a deep nostalgia that I didn’t expect, it sneaks up on me every time! 😂
Love You Michelle Phan
You Make The Best Makeup Tutorials Ever
I'm so surprised Michelle you haven't released a skincare line it would be awesome ❤️
I was watching your videos and you posted this !!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love all of your videos, @Michelle Phan!! I've been watching your videos, since 2007 or so. 💓 Luv Ya!!
Thank you so much for this! I'm also in my 30s and had so much skincare and used skii as well in my 20s, never really noticed a difference then but looking back my skin was great. I just purchased some and looking foward to using it again!
I trust Michelle SO MUCH! I've been a fan of her since 2011. I love her and now that I'm officially an adult, I have the money for this. SO EXCITED!!!!
i would never afford such a luxury skincare line like sk-ii but i enjoy watching videos about it though, especially from michelle
Just any FYI Sephora and SK II direct use Afterpay and Klarna. You can break down the payments into 4, and it makes it a little easier to afford. I don’t know everyone’s situation, but I thought I would mention this. You can pay a portion of the bill every 2 weeks
Michelle’s before is my current goal. Her skin is glowing. Gorgeous
I've heard so many *amazing* things... as well as about Le Mer. Can't wait to try ♡
I LOVE this video! I DO use this product! I'm in my early 50's. It seemed like I was wasting a lot of product in my hands and using cotton so I pumped it into a spray travel bottle! I give it a couple of sprays and then tap into my skin. I LOVE this product! Thanks for this video! ❤️
I use it too. That’s a great idea with the spray bottle!
Yeah, that's great idea
Hi. I have been using this product for 4 years. I am 57 and I love the product. I put it in a travel spray in the fridge. I put a couple of sprays in my face from the fridge and I tap it in my face. It is wonderful.
@@marthabailey4313 ooooo I love the idea of putting it in the fridge!
love her sooo much.. she feels like family 🥰💜
I’ve been watching you since highschool and damn, until now (on my 30th year) you’re still my go-to guru. I would not apply akything on my face if you don’t recommend it. Brb, nuying essence now! Loveya, Michelle
This is amazing and so REAL!!
Always look forward to ur videos. I’m 56 now….. I’ve always taken care of my skin….. sunscreen is the big secret for me, tho I just started with the vitamin c & pure collagen moisturizer. Looking good so far. I’m a younger looking 56 bc of my years of skin care but we can’t get away from skin changing. Age comes with it tho we must keep taking care of skin even if it’s to make us feel good 🥰. Good luck everyone!
That's crazy I can't believe I'm seeing real skin pm RUclips. Thanks for doing this!
Your skin still looks amazing Michelle
Like the week the week vlog. It is great to see clearly what you felt the benefits were. Will you be able to review the Estee Lauder Microessence? Been watching you since college days! Your voice is so relaxing ^^
Wow I can see the difference. I’m also in my 30s and watched you since those xanga rice bunny days. I’m totally gonna try this out !
I also had the same thoughts about sk-II in my 20’s! It didn’t really make a difference and i understand that it was probably bc my skin was virtually “perfect”. Fast forward to my early 30’s - my skin texture isn’t the same and i keep getting dry patches. I reached for my sk-II bottle on hand and am finally noticing a difference. Thanks for doing this review!
I started at 18, thinking it did zero difference but I kept it up. not everyday, on and off but always consistent. I'm in my 30s and my skin is a decade younger than my age. it really works
omg I really see a difference especially in the redness!! even your scar on your left cheek got less obvious!
I also really believe in skincare! I do it religiously! I've been using Clarins for a long time, but I'd love to try this essence!
I started using this in my 30’s. It was the 30ml small bottle that was given for me to try. Since then, I just can’t live without SK-II essence.
I am in my 40s now and I am glad that I have invested in this miracle essence.
I noticed a difference, great video!
Been watching your vid since highschool. Have been refering some of your vid from time to time for make-up and skincare advice. I used to have acne prone and oily skin. Now in my mid 20s, I finally stick to a skincare routine that works for me. I change often change my cleanser and moisturiser. But I have been sticking on Hada Labo Lifting+Firming Lotion(the red bottle) for 8 years now. Hatomugi Skin Conditioner also have been my favourite this past 3 years.
So early!
Love you 💓
Your skin care tutorials made my day 🥰 still do
I used skii fte in my 20s and didn't see a difference too. Now you make me want to try it again 😊
Thanks for the clarification! I’ve always wanted to try sk-II as I’ve always watching their commercials since I was a kid. I might slowly get into it since my skin doesn’t react well with product change. Last time I did, oh God I had acne flare that I’ve never experienced before.
So I found out my skin doesn’t do well with fermented skincare. Bought sk-ii and broke out. I found Sulwhasoo and it’s soooo good on my skin. I’m in my 40 and I can see the difference only after few times of using it. It took me 30 years to find a skincare line that’s perfect for me.
SAME! Sulwhasoo is amaaazing!
I also love sulwhasoo.
Same here. I invested in SK II and my skin started to get so rough. It’s so weird. I kept trying and my skin condition didn’t get better. But once I switched to Sulwhasoo, my skin enhanced significantly just after a few times of using it! I guess everyone is really just different.
@@ingrams1985 which line of sulwhasoo you use?
Skii broke me out too :( can you share what products you love from sulwhasoo?
I have been using Missha products now for over 10 years. I just recently did a few laser treatments for my face to get rid of sun spots. The woman treating me said my skin looked pretty good for my age. (40) I use the Time Revolution First Essence, Snail Cream, and nightly sheet masks. Now since I am 40, I know I need to be more aggressive using sun screen. I am terrible about not using it. 😩 Skin care is one of the things that I like to do for myself. I don't wear makeup, so I try to keep my skin looking as good as possible. 🙂 Missha products are affordable, cover different skin care needs, and have a light fragrance. I have used many of their products from the different lines and I have to say the Snail Cream is the best! 🐌
I love your videos and have been watching them since 2009. I will always wish you all the best! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! 😁
Love this! Can you please do your current skincare routine? I'd like to know what other products you use. I have sunspots I'm trying to lighten as well!
It’s been my holy grails for YEARS! i truly believe Sk-II works 😅
I too used SK-II but for some inexplicable reason stopped, so this video is very timely.
I have only been using SK II pitera essence and sunscreen for 10 years and it's not until last year that I need to add its rna power essence to my night routine. My skin has zero dark spot and has never been dry even now even though I've never gotten any facial! It's also the only brand I can use without breaking out. Honest review here because I really appreciate their products.
I’m a guy but I started investing in skin care years ago back when Michelle had Iqqu 😅I remember buying the rice face wash. Right now, I’m using the medicube zero foam cleanser, some products from Mizon & some from Aesop
Still the most underrated Beauty Guru on RUclips 🥰
Ahhh voice of an angel.
Sk-ii broke me out so badly but alas. I can’t use niancinimide or titanium dioxide either. Suffering!
Our thoughts are so powerful that if you think something will do something wonderful it will especially if it has been created with love and respect. The Emoto water memory exoeriments are such amazing evidence of this. 💖 (I love how La Mer plays music to their miracle broth while it ferments.) But having said that our minds alone can make us beautiful this is on my shopping list because I also believe in an abundant universe. ✨🦋🌸
I love using Skii. So much so that I use their Toner, Essence, and sheet masks.
I bought this during a spurge moment. Tbh at first I couldn’t tell a difference (in my mid 20s btw) like Michelle. But then I stopped for like a couple of weeks then noticed something wasn’t the same. Then I started it again and I noticed my skin just looked healthy lol idk how to describe it but healthy, smooth, and brighten. I’ve tried the other dupes before and haven’t found anything like it to call it a dupe. At the same time it’s too expensive to keep re-purchasing lol def buy if you have the monays
Nice. I always wondered what really they could do.
I'd love to see a comparison with some Kikumasamune products since they're also made with galactomyces ferment filtrate (which is what pitera is) and produced by a sake brewery! the high moist toner (pink bottle) is one of their most popular items and my HG moisturizer, and I'm definitely out of sk-ii's price range to try it myself (plus I think I'm too young to see sk-ii results since I'm mid-20s haha)
Desde los 9 años que veo tus videos ahora tengo 22 años gracias por mostrar lo bonito que es el maquillaje 😍😍😍😍
You made my day ❤️❤️❤️
Holy moly you went through that bottle quickly! That amount of essense would probably last me 2-3 months
SO EXCITED
Thank you Michelle
i first used SKii in my 20s too i liked it but didnt appreciate it enough, i was younger with a good skin to begin with.... then over the years, i got caught up with all the new brands, different international skincare, western, Korean etc. my skin barrier got damaged from experimenting too much. now that i hit 40, i went back to SKii and gosh i understand now how good it is.
Omg Michelle is back 😭
I plan to buy several SKII products later this week. I use Tatcha quite a bit along with some The Ordinary and Youth to the People. I do find over my manny, many years I’ve been extremely dedicated to skincare and do adjust when and where needed, especially with age.
Please do a complete skincare routine!
Very informative thanks 💋
Queen films a video in January, and releases it NOW!
SK-II teaming with both mina AND you😱💕
Merci. Wow even beauty guru Michelle had imperfections like all of us
my mom in her 50s has started using some of SK-II products for the last two years and yes I definitely can see the improvement 😭🥺👍👍
SK-II has changed my skin at 60. I use the Facial Treatment Essence and Aura Essence, and the changes in texture and luminosity are highly noticeable.
I've been into skin care for a really long time and while my skin was very good in my early 20s, I still got cystic pimples regularly that were crazy painful. I'm 27 now and my skin is in the best shape it has ever been in I believe. I use retinol and bha once a week respectively and I don't break out anymore. What I'm trying to figure out right now, it how to retain moisture on my face. I've been using aloe vera gel and snail mucin for maybe 3-4 weeks now and it's nice, but not as moist as I'd want my skin to be. I'm definitely curious about this essence and might give it a try in the future! Maybe wait until I'm 30 first x)
i havent tried SKII but im a huge fan of essences. when i was in my 20's my skin was always dried, regardless of the products i used , and after two or three hours it looked like i applied nothing on my skin. After i had my son two years ago (and on my 30's) i began to worry about my appearance and searched frantically online, and in videos by harpers bazaar they consulted experts (aka dermatologists) and one of them recommended the essences. Boy, that water changed my (skincare) world! now over 8 hours go by and still my skin remains hydrated! the essence made a huge difference on my routine, but i like to switch essences, unfortunately this brand is not in my country (MEXICO) but if i have a chance i'd like to try it for sure! :)
