SK-II Opens Pop Up Shops in NYC & SF

One of my favorite beauty brand, SK-II launched their first pop up shops in New York City and San Francisco for a limited time, April 4th – May 23rd, just in time for the spring season. At the SK-II Pop Ups, consumers will discover their skin’s potential to achieve an ageless, radiant complexion through one-on-one personalized consultations with SK-II’s new skin analysis technology – the Beauty Imaging System™.

The Beauty Imaging System™ is the latest breakthrough in beauty innovation. This unique analysis device predicts the skin’s visible age to help determine a SK-II product ritual designed exclusively for an individual’s skin concerns. It works by capturing close-up images of the face using a digital camera and then analyzes the images based on the five dimensions of crystal clear, ageless skin: Texture Refinement, Firmness Power, Wrinkle Resilience, Radiance and Tone. Used over time, SK-II users can track their improvement and how their skin fares with age.
