My show recently got picked up and I’m headed to Atlanta to film for 7 months! My skin has been really dry from all my recent travels and a bit dull looking. I’ve tried a lot of masks to help hydrate and smooth out my skin but nothing seems to work long term. I’m always open to trying new products and the team at SK-II told me about their Facial Treatment Essence. I’ve partnered up with them and have introduced SK-II Facial Treatment Essence into my skin regimen because I’m hoping to be #OneBottleAwayFrom from having hydrated, smooth and glowing skin for the start of my new show. I’ve heard that it will helps with all of the above so fingers crossed!
I’ve documented my skin for the first 4 weeks since introducing SK-II Facial Treatment Essence into my skin regimen. I started using SK-II mid June.
Week 1. Skin is dry, irritated and dull.
Growing up I always had issues with uneven skin tone and mild facial eczema. Dry skin on my face has always been one of my insecurities. I’ve tried using a steroid cream when the dryness got really bad around my mouth but the medication was too strong and my skin problems would eventually come back.
Week 2: Starting to see less dry spots. My skin is soaking up the SK-II Facial Treatment Essence (FTE). After I have wash and dry my face I apply a teaspoon amount the the FTE onto the palm of my hand. After rubbing my hands together, I gently tap the product onto my face. It’s safe to use around the eyes and eyelid and I also always apply a generous amount onto my neck.
Week 3
My skin is feeling hydrated throughout the day and I feel like my skin is glowing.
Week 4:
I feel like I’ve got the dryness under control. My skin is hydrating and super smooth. I’m also loving my glow. I’ve also put the SK-II Facial Treatment Essence into a small spray bottle so I can refresh my skin throughout the day.
I have continued to use SK-II FTE after the first four weeks and am currently still using the product throughout the day. I’ve gotten quit creative with it. Aside from applying it day and night after I wash my face, I’ve put some in a spray bottle and I keep it in my bag so I can mist throughout the day. I’ve also made up a personal facial cocktail which I would apply after a long flight. My facial cocktail: after applying SK-II FTE onto a clean face I would trap in the moisture by leaving on a facial treatment mask over night. I’ve started filming my show a month ago and have been very please with the condition of my skin. It’s super hydrated and smooth! I’ve been traveling a lot for press, always trying to catch up with sleep and I’ve been exhausted! It’s been non stop since we started filming the show and with the amount of makeup I put on and take off my skin problems would usually flair up. But I’ve been really surprised by how my skin has held up, it’s never looked better. One month of craziness down. I hope my skin will continue to look this healthy until we wrap our season in December!

Merci for sharing.

I’ve always wanted to try the SK-II brand!
Clear skin and a good deodorant! ?
Dancing or moving in general always gives me confidence ?!
I used to haveany acnes on my skin’s due to move a lot ( from country to country) and I didn’t take a good care of myself. I use to use a lot makeup and try to cover my acnes, but I know that’s just gonna make it worse. Then one day, I just told myself it’s ok, I need to accept what I look like now. Even though my face looks so bad with the acnes but I just need to embrace it and stop wearing makeup for a while. To let my skin breath. I stopped wearing makeup, started eating healthier, started drinking more water, I don’t even Photoshop my picture anymore. Because I realize I should not be ashamed about who I am and what I really look like. Self-care and self-love are the reason why I’m confident enough to show my acnes without feeling too bad about it. Because other there are always people out there who is going to judge you. So why don’t you just accept who you are and love the way you are. That’s how I always tell myself and my friends. To be more confident and love yourself a little bit more. And look at me now! My acnes are gone!!! Even though I still have some dark spots but it looks much more better than before. I have always wanted to try sk-II but I just graduated and started working, so it’s not that easy for me to afford product like this. I would really appreciated if I can get the chance to try this product and see a new transformation of my skin.
Great insight! There is nothing better than starting your day on a good foot knowing your skin is looming luminous!
A great workout!I feel energized and confident,I am ready to then tackle the day:)!I’ve have heard nothing but great things about SK-II,cool giveaway:)!!
I’ve always wanted to try this brand. Feeling beautiful and strong is what keeps me motivated and gives me confidence. I work in a children’s hospital and am on night shift, which can really take a toll on my skin. Making sure I don’t look exhausted and keeping myself put together is something I strive for when meeting parents of my patients. I want nothing more than for them to see a healthy, strong individual caring for their child. Would love to try the SK-II out for my skin!
Doing something body-positive gives me confidence! From eating a healthy meal to squeezing in a quick working out, consciously making the effort to do something that will benefit my physical well-being gives me confidence.
You look radiant as always, Jamie! ?
I’ve always struggled with dry skin, especially in the T-Zone area and I’ve yet to find something that works for me and at times is a little frustrating. Taking care of myself gives me confidence, I enjoy doing my own hair, taking the time to use the right products and making sure it’s healthy as I have ridiculously curly hair.
Thank you for the opportunity. Enjoy your day!
Confidence can be a hard thing to come by for me as I too get eczema on my face like Jamie. I feel most confident when my skin is okay with no foundation, I get my eyeliner just right and my curly hair looking lush 🙂
Being well prepared for what the day lies ahead makes me confident . Whether it is having a phone charger, an umbrella or even some ibuprofen on me I know that I can handle the day ahead without too much commotion.
Hi Jamie!
I started using the skii FTE recently too!! It gives me confidence to have nice smooth skin (no pimples) haha. Thank you for the giveaway 🙂
Embracing my bare face and letting my skin breathe every now and again gives me confidence!
Hi Jamie! I actually have the same problems as you. Dry skin and irritation. I use neutrogena cleanser with Korean skin masks and it works but only for a set time. Nothing long term. As an aspiring actor, what gives me confidence is consistent l, hydrated, smooth looking skin. So please, pick me for the giveaway! Also, congrats on your new show, which I’m assuming is the gifted? Can’t wait to watch!
I almost always have to put on eyeliner before I leave my place because I feel like it brings out my eyes and makes them look bigger! I always feel more confident after I’ve put on eyeliner. That’s the beauty of makeup!
Great post! I totally agree. You can’t beat the feeling of well hydrated skin to give you a great confidence boost. I also feel like when I get in a great workout, I’m able to take on the world! 🙂
I would love to have fresh, hydrated, and glowing skin for when I go back to teach after maternity leave in a couple of weeks! 🙂
Taking better care of my personal health and using better products for my skin has made me feel better about leaving the house with no makeup on and embracing my natural beauty! I feel so much more confident when my skin is bare now and also when I have a killer outfit to match 🙂
For me, it’s having a healthy, clean, radiant skin. That is something no make-up, no matter how expensive, can give you. ❤️
Taking better care of my health and skin has made me so much more confident in not wearing makeup and I feel great now when I leave the house in a bare face especially when I have a killer outfit to match 🙂
I feel most confident after I’ve squashed a killer workout and am left with a sweaty glow in my skin. I refuel my body with nourishing food, get dolled up, and head to work knowing I have accomplished something great before 9am. Positive vibes prolong that confidence throughout my day. Take care of your body from the inside out!
What gives me confidence is my skin right after cleaning. It’s so fresh and clean.
I’ve only heard good things about SK-II. I want to tey your face mist trick now!
What makes me confident through the day is when my lips are moistured witt no odd dry patch. Some lip products leave my lips so dry, and its probably one of the thing that makes me feel the worst about my face area.
What makes me confident is to make sure I wash my face in the morning. It just feels so fresh and clean like I can conquer my day!! If I don’t, I feel like I just want to hide. Haha
Making one of my students smile!
This product looks fantastic! My mother has always given me confidence by encouraging me to try new thing!
Great skin also makes me feel great! A power outfit and workouts too ??
smooth skin and a perfect smile will give me confidence!!!
As a Korean with a Korean mom with beautiful skin, I think skin that look pure and clear is sooo important. I think flawless and glowing skin is all I need when I’m in on the go! Plus it always give me a boost of confidence when I’m having a good skin day!
Clear skin and my favorite dainty jewelry pieces (plus a great watch) definitely give me that day to day confidence !!
Having studied or worked hard late last night and waking up the next day feeling completely prepared always makes me feel a little more empowered and confident. Also, spending time with supportive, great friends who I admire so much gives me a confidence boost!
I’m most confident when I don’t have to put a ton of makeup on my face. It keeps my skin softer and lesser irritation.
Any good skin day gives me a huge boost of confidence! I was diagnosed earlier this year with rosacea. Learning to not trigger it, along with finding the right products, has been a mission for me. Dry patches are also an issue. But when my face looks smooth and calm and my makeup glides on perfectly (or I can go bare faced), I am feeling myself!
High heels make me fe l empowered and confident!
Thanks for the giveaway! Love using SK II. Nice bear hug and smile give me confidence.
Eating clean helps me feel confident and honestly helps me.feel so much better/gives me energy to face the day!
I have this navy blue top that I wear for big meetings or different things where I need a little extra confidence. I don’t know why but it always makes me feel good and gives me the confidence I need.
Doing anything in helping me be a better me! This includes physical and mental positive contributions I make for my body. From eating healthy or treating my skin, to reading a book or exploring a new culture. I feel confident when I know I am myself, the best version of myself.
Getting in a good workout brings me joy and confidence!
I’ve lived my whole life with very sparse brows. People actually ask me if I’m feeling well or not bexause Inlooks sick without my eyebrows. This is the reason why I feel the most confident when my eyebrows are on fleek! I’m having an easier time coping with it now but the fact that I feel amazing on a good brow day remain unchanged.
I am currrently using SKII facial essence too. That helps tone and smooth my face. I will try to put that on my beck too. My most worry is my Scar acne. And, FTE also helps reduce my scar acne. That’s why I like it so much.
What makes me feel confident is having glowy smooth skin for no make up days! I’ve always struggled with random breakouts here and there growing up. Now that I’m in my 20s I still breakout from stress and the pollutants in the environment. I have started adding new products into my skin regiment but I feel like my skin is lacking hydration in general. When my skin feels nourished and glowing I love to take that as a no make up day and I feel great!!
Love SK II. Nice big bear hug and smile instantly give me confidence. Thank you for the giveaway.
Running give me confidence! I love to run and train for a race. After a training cycle, I feel confident I can achieve my goal!
I also love SKII!
Self confidence is unattainable when your having facial skin issues such as dryness, breakouts, and uneven skin tone. I have been trying to search for the right product to use to resolve this issue. I hope I can be one of the lucky winners of your free give away, and see if this product will work for me like it did to your skin. Thank you for sharing your experience with SFK II.
I definitely agree, skin is the a major factor for confidence. When my skin is feeling fresh, moisturizer and clear I feel good! I think also a great outfit can boost my mood.
Clear, hydrated skin is my confidence boost, too! I love being able to go out without makeup on.
Having family, friends, and loving relationships give me confidence in life!
Hey,Jamie.
I have been following you for a quite long time.
I like your dressing styles,your photos you put on Instagram,your passages you wrote on whathechung.
I love you everything!
The most important thing is that
You teach me to be confident of being an Asian!
Thanks you for everything you shared on internet.
It really inspired me a lot!
Glowing skin and a good workout gives me confidence! Oh and also coffee. Always coffee 🙂
I get my confidence from taking care of my skin too! I’m obsessed with Korean skincare products and I actually use the cheaper version of the SKII which is the Missha essence. My favorite part of the day is taking all the makeup and grime off my face and finding glowy skin underneath!
Having beautiful glowing skin gives me confidence. I hardly have those days where I’m proud of my skin as it does get really dry and dull looking. Especially since winter is rolling in soon. My skin will have its moments and surprise me and look good and those days I’m more confident and happy with myself.
Good skin gives me confidence, also! My cheeks get flushed really easily and I look like I’m always embarrassed. That alone can end up being kind of embarrassing. I’m finally discovering products that soothe my skin and allow me to go makeup free confidently. There’s no better feeling than loving the skin you’re in!
Something that boosts my confidence is working out (and getting a good sweat)! After the gym I shower, then hydrate my face… and the feeling is just amazing and puts me in a great mood. Not to mention all the energy I get from working out
Getting sweaty and strong always leaves me feeling confident. That post workout facial glow is pretty nice too! I recently had some injuries so haven’t been able to get up and moving as much as I’d like, but hoping to recover soon. The SK essence will definitely cheer me up 🙂
A good hair day and flawless skin gives me confidence!
I have wanted to try the SK-II. I have some sun damage to my face and haven’t found anything that helps. Your skin looks awesome in just a few weeks.
Hi Jamie! I feel most confident when I’m naturally happy and comfortable in my own skin. My skin isn’t the best but there are days that I’m okay with it because the people I spend my time with aren’t judging me.
Something that gives me confidence is mascara. I can be super tired but mascara helps make me look more awake and alert.
I’ve struggled with adolescent acne, rosacea, adult acne, hormonal acne, and some serious pigmentation for most of my life. I’ve gone to count ’em… 4 different dermatologists from the SGV area to Beverly Hills over the course of 15 years. It wasn’t until I stopped the oral/topical medications and chemical peels and changed up my diet and introduced a different skincare routine that things began to change. It’s not there yet, but I’d love to start using SK-II, as I’ve heard great things about the brand. By the way… I unknowingly started using the hashtag #whatthechung” after my husband and I got married (his last name being, Chung), so my bad that there are some photos of us sprinkled on that feed. Haha….
Clear skin gives me confidence!
…forgot to add that having clear skin would bring me confidence! But since I’m not there yet, knowing that I’m taking steps toward it and gaining knowledge on the way, definitely gives me that confidence too!
You look gorgeous as always! I always get a boost of confidence every time I finish a workout session. It leaves me energized and ready to take on the day! I’ve always wanted to try SKII products especially the facial essence!
Making sure I fully hydrate/moisturize my face and not having to wear any foundation to cover up “flaws” gives me confidence. A little black eyeliner and blush never hurt, though 🙂
Taking risks – when I go out and try something that scares me I come out feeling more confident after! Exercising regularly – I workout once a day after work and it makes me feel more confident mentally and physically
I have never had great skin complexion or texture thanks to many years of cystic adult acne and subaceous hyperplasia. I will always remember the make up artist who worked with me in high school commenting that if you have great skin and eyebrows, you can be confident you look your best. I didn’t get that by the luck of genetics, so my confidence comes from my personal drive for the things I want to do. I know that I’m the only one who can spur me forward or hold me back. Keeping my skin on the right track is always something I’ve worked on, but I have worked hard to not let it consume me if it isn’t directly within my control. Otherwise I would have crumpled and given up a long time ago.
Clear skin- confidence- positive mind ?
recently becoming a mother has created a stronger confidence in me than I could have ever imagined, but I also got extremely bad acne from the pregnancy. The acne is gone, but now I’m still working to restore my skin. I’ve only heard great things about SK-II
Hi Jamie!!
Your skin looks gorgeous with such a radiant glow to it!
What gives me confidence is living a healthy lifestyle- by working out daily and eating the right food. Another thing would be to have beautiful, radiant, pimple-free skin like you!
Thank you for doing this giveaway Jamie! ?
A sweaty workout makes me feel confident!
I feel confidence when i have healthy smooth skin!!!
The “who cares ” mentality, being happy for me and not for what others think gives me confidence
Going out without any foundation and concealer on!!
Clear and hydrating skin helps boost my confidence 🙂
For me it’s clear, smooth, and toned skin and some nice eyebrows!
Having clear glowing skin, a good workout and putting my eyebrows and mascara on my face always gives me confidence! ❤️
Having my wife come along on this adventure called “life” with me!
Hi Jamie,
Clear, beautiful and glowing skin gives me confidence to start my new job as well! I recently took a new nursing position completely out of my comfort zone and obviously stress can play havoc on your skin. Focusing on hydration is where it’s at when it comes to my skin! Great giveaway!! Good luck everyone!!
My 1 year old daughter gives me all the confidence that I need! Seeing her smile and seeing her put all her trust in me makes me feel that I can do anything!
Tight hydrated skin with a healthy glow!!
Clear, glowy skin gives me confidence!
I totally agree that clear bright skin gives me so much confidence! When all I have to do in the morning is put on some sunscreen and mascara I feel so happy!
Physical strength gives me the most confidence. Going for a jog, taking a Pilates class, or doing yoga at home! When my body feels capable of lifting heavy boxes, going up flights of stairs, or just being flexible enough to allow me to move without pain or restriction, I feel on top of the world! Although, a great complexion doesn’t hurt too ?
Wow! I’ve always wanted to try the SK-II brand!
Clear skin and a nice shade of lippy to brighten up my day. 🙂
nothing like waking up to smooth, plump and dewy skin that gives me a confidence to start my day!
What makes me confident is clear skin and healthy hair! I’m in nursing school at the moment and don’t have much free time so it’s the small things that pick you up (: thank you for the give away!
Clear and radiant skin! ???
Clear and radiant skin! ???
I used to have mild ezcema on my body which left me with a lot of discoloration so it was difficult for me to wear tank tops and a bikini. As I grew older, it took time to realize that this is the skin and body that I have and slowly grew confidence to wear certain type of clothings. What makes me confident is knowing that beauty also comes from within and having a good personality.
Glowing skin, for one!
But confidence, as we all know, goes much deeper than that and for me comes from feeling like I’m doing my best. Being the best daughter, sister, friend, and wife makes me feel good. Pushing myself in my career and being able to say I did my best and put for the strongest effort I could is what helps me to feel confident. Another part of confidence, for me, is knowing that sometimes you just have days when you don’t feel it. Those are the days when it’s most important to do what you can to fake it ’til you make it! Glowing skin, clean makeup and a beach lob all help get me there! ❤️

I feel most confident right after a sweaty, heart drilling workout!
Having My ‘normal ‘ skin back after almost 2 years of suffering through severe eczema all over my body ( especially my face and back). Because of my horrible skin I only took 1 preganscy photo and only recently started taking photos with my beautiful daughter. The SK II will help me to continue to help combat any residual eczema.
Being healthy, positive, compassionate and feeling good about myself. Having a great outfit helps too!! ?
What gives me confidence is feeling good about my hair and skin, then nothing can stop me. Put on a bright smile and you are guaranteed to have a good day!
What makes me feel confident? Clean healthy vibrant skin! I have always struggled to keep my chin acne under control. I’ll get a couple break outs at a time and my skin will get really dry and patchy around that area. If I put makeup on it just makes it look way worse. I was introduced to SK-II by a Buzzfeed Korean skincare regimen experiment. I did charge it to my credit card and also started seeing awesome results. Crazy enough it did help hydrate but also tone down my acne issues.
Being able to put on makeup without having to worry about dry patches or bumps is amazing!! It’s so liberating to feel so good when you’re out and not be embarrassed when people are so close to your face! Unfortunately, I’ve been out of the product and haven’t been able to invest it in financially so my confidence is not at it’s best lately. Whether I have a full face of make up or none at all having clear healthy skin is when I feel my best ♥️
I feel most confident when my skin is clear and when I have good breath. Although this is focusing on outward characteristics, I’ve learned to love myself despite my flaws and that has really let me be confident in who I am.
Clear skin & free of facial hair !
Hi Jamie!
Thank you so much for shedding some light on an asian skin care brand. These reviews are hard to come by. I feel most confident when I start my day with a shower in the morning. It helps wake you up feeling fresh.
P.s Love your glow!
A nice set of brows and clear, glowing skin are two things that make me feel like I can rule the world! After going through my teenage acne years, which I still have phases of here and there to be honest, I became obsessed with skincare and learning more about how I can take good care of my skin. My life changed when I began to explore Korean and Japanese skincare. It’s been 3 years since I’ve been using variations of Korean and Japanese skincare products and I can honestly see a change in my skin. I’ve always wanted to give SK-II a try but it was never within my budget. Hopefully this will be my chance!
My smile gives me confidence!
Hi Jamie,
I’ve been a fan of yours since The Real World by the way! haha
Having clear skin gives me confidence, but I have been dealing with acne ever since high school. I’m in my 30s now and I still deal with acne issues! Not as crazy as before but I get break outs every so often and they always leave dark spots/scarring. Although I have adult acne, it doesn’t deter me from enjoying life and traveling around the world whenever I can. Young at heart here! I still look youthful but the older I get, I’m looking for a product that would help maintain healthy looking skin. This giveaway is perfect timing as I’ve been considering trying SK-II and getting some for my mom!! **crossing fingers** LOL
Completely agree with great skin = confidence! I moved to NYC recently from GA, where my skin was really dry, so I used really thick creams. Now in NYC, I have oily and acne prone skin, and it seems that nothing I do helps! I took my clear skin for granted in ATL, but I definitely understand the obsession with clear skin here. Of course confidence goes much deeper than the surface, but I always believe good hygiene and weekly pampering always puts me in a good mood which boosts my confidence levels:)
What makes me confidence learning to feel good about myself no matter my size. Being happy and letting go of the negativity.
Wearing a hot pair of heels, newly waxed eyebrows and just smiling even if I don’t feel at my best makes me feel confident!
I would like to try this product but I can’t afford it
Many people always positive about Sk2 product,,
Clear skin and a smile
Glowing skin and mascara gives me confidence ?. Thanks for this giveaway! I would love to win some SK-II products, I have always heard such great things about the brand! PS your skin looks amazing Jamie!!!
What make me feel confident is a healthy and radient skin.
When my face is glowing and with everything on place and when my hair is on fire!! Hahahaha that’s what give me confident
What makes me confident is definitely clear and glowing skin, and of course a good outfit makes me feel beautiful and confident any day, but without clear skin a good outfit is wasted!
Looking good 🙂
I don’t wear makeup, so I really count on my skin to look naturally beautiful. That natural glow is what gives me confidence! I am living it up in the broke post grad life so thanks for the opportunity!
my dimples and a good hair day gives me confidence : )
I feel really confident when my skin is looking flawless! Often when I feel like I’m having a bad skin day, I’ll put more makeup on or try to create a hairdo that will cover up my imperfections. I’m working everyday to gain confidence from within and not have to rely on those crutches. I still breakout on the regular but I want to work more on just being happy in the skin I’m in (even if it’s not perfect). However, there’s no shame in using natural and effective remedies to treat the skin!
Thanks Jamie!!!
Hi, Jamie 🙂
I feel most confident when I don’t wake up with a red face. I’ve used lotions that help calm red skin, but I still haven’t found one that really works.
Thank you for giving the opportunity to win this giveaway.
Clear, hydrated, and not having dry flaky skin! Dealing with eczema is hard and it always sucks to have a flare up.
I have heard so many great things about this brand and it’s on my wish list of things I would like to try. What makes me confident is clear, hydrated skin and a bit of lippie. I had a long hard fight with acne and after about 4-5 years I thought the fight was over. Now as of late, my skin has been at its worst and it has really impacted my confidence to the point where I did not want to leave the house. I started mentally training myself to think that my physical attributes don’t define me and it’s what is inside that counts. Now I truly believe that and my confidence has started to boost and I think those around me have started to notice it too. Thanks for this opportunity. Love you xxx
A warm smile gives me confidence! It can help put others at ease, break down tension during an uncomfortable or unfamiliar situation, and overall, be uplifting.
Thank you for hosting such a great giveaway – you definitely look great!
What makes me confident is working out and wearing my favorite jeans 🙂
Jamie, love the post! What gives me confidence is hitting the gym first thing in the morning! Makes me feel good the rest of my day.
Pushing out of my comfort zone gives me confidence because then I know that I can do it and fear is all in the mind!
Clear glowing skin after a sweaty yoga session!
I struggled with adult acne going into college. My skin struggled and I was left with acne scarring but it has finally cleared up and using the right products and maintaining a healthy lifestyle has definitely helped my confidence!
Hi Jamie!
Pimple-free appearance and wearing comfortable clothing are what gives me confidence in being comfortable in my own skin! 🙂
Exercising gives me confidence…that and clean brows ?
Having clear and glowing skin gives me confidence as well! Having had acne all through my teenage years, I have finally gotten to a point where my skin is mostly clear, with some flare ups now and then so I would love to try SKII and see if it will stabilize and improve my skin!
I’ve really wanted to try SK-II. I would have to say the two things that give me confidence are blemish free skin and a great smelling perfume.
Exercise and eating lots of fruits and veggies makes me feel strong and gives me confidence to take charge of my day!
Hi Jamie!
What gives me confidence on the corporeal level is a fresh face with light make up on, a nice quality foundation and concealer to work out that under eye line, with a pretty blush on, and mascara!
On the intellectual level is always working hard to be prepared on whatever projects I’m working on, either with my work or music!
I would love to test out SK II product!
Thank you, I love love Always Tomorrow in HK! It’s my new favorite!
Hydrated glowing skin, working out and eating healthy makes me feel confident!! Love this post and your skin looks great after 4 weeks of use!
I’m most confident when I have clear, glowing skin and also when I’m wearing a chic outfit! It’s always a confidence booster to look good while doing good!
A good makeup day makes me feel so awesomeee! <3
What makes me feel the most confident is meditation. I’m a true believer that confidence comes from within and having positive thoughts definitely reflect on someone’s outer appearance. Meditating and reflecting on my best qualities inner and outer help me to stay happy and confident :)!
When I wake up after a good night sleep and hydrated skin, it gives me confident for the day! And to top it off with a natural makeup and the right ootd, you know you’re going to have a good day ???♥️
What makes me confident is when my skin is looking good enough that I don’t need makeup! (It’s been freaking out more than usual lately) It frees up so much of your “getting ready” time, when you can just walk out of your house with no make up, and BAM! Take on the world. Spend your time doing more important things than having to spend an hour trying to perfect your complexion.
What gives me confidence, more than flawless makeup, is beautiful, naked skin. I take great pride in my skin care routine, and enjoy “showing off” the results (mostly to myself)… I’ve had my share of issues; adult acne, sun spots, hyperpigmentation, aging skin. Now that I’m in my 40’s, having nice healthy and glowing skin, is more important than the makeup.
Cheers! Your skin that you have you’re in, is beautiful.

It gives me confidence to see Asian-American actresses succeeding. Superheroes can and do look like me. ?
Waking up without blemishes and a good night’s sleep usually does the trick for my confidence level for the day. Also putting together a new outfit and finding inspiration from blogs like this.
Clear and plump skin make me feel confident. As well as a good run.
I’m impressed, we can actually see the difference week after week! I’ve never had a chance to try the brand since I’m a broke college student haha but always saw beauty influencers recommend it and now you! Revisions for my many exams have messed my skin quite badly and I never found anything that works truly, like you mention, it was all a temporary effect. I’m glad that you found that precious little bottle to give you maximum confidence since I know your issue just too well haha! Since I don’t have my skin as a must, I think a cute or daring (the kind that are unexpectedly good) outfit really makes my day better and …I’m quite feeling myself when that happens haha ? but well, thank you for your share, I will look out for this brand more now!
When I feel like my skin is on a 10 that’s what makes me feel confident. Clear glowing skin is always the best thing to show especially since your face is the first thing people see when they look at you. I’ve always struggled with acne and dry skin. And now that my acne is gone from all of the treatments I have done I seem to have more dry skin. I just got back from Ocean City New Jersey and my skin seems to be even more dry. I haven’t found the perfect hydrater for my skin so I would feel very lucky to be picked for a giveaway.!
My pet turtle Mr Mcboodles gives me confidence cause he’s always happy to see me!!
The main thing that gives me confidence would be a fresh, glowing face after makeup is removed from a long day’s worth of sweat. There’s nothing better than taking off that layer of oil than cleanser, water, the right toner and moisturizer!
Accomplishing a goal allows me to feel confident and empowered. Love SK-II products!
I feel confident the most when I can feel rejuvenated from a good sleep or a good workout. I also struggle with sensitive skin, so I break out easily and have dry spots which makes my skin very uneven.
Hydrated, clear skin is always a confidence booster for me! Other boosters include morning workouts and a killer pair of heels!
I absolutely cannot wait for your new show!! I have been hoping and praying for you to get cast in a Marvel role for so so long.
Smooth, clear, moisturized skin and hydrated lips!
Clear hydrated skin gives me confidence!!!
Emotionally and physically feeling good gives me a boost of confidence! I try to start the day off in a positive manner because it really does set the mood for the rest of your day. Many people don’t realize the importance of self-care & how that affects him/her positively!
Really loved seeing the transformation of your skin throughout the month using this product!
I feel confident after a good face wash and seeing clear skin underneath it
my easy to manage straight hair
Getting dressed up for date night with my husband–nothing better than feeling good inside & out while spending time with the ones you love!
Inspiring others . .. Big hearts and smiles…
Being surrounded by loved ones gives me confidence! 🙂 The love I receive from those closest to me, especially my boyfriend, make all my insecurities go away. In a more material sense, having skin that looks like it’s glowing from within truly gives me confidence! Makeup is so much fun, but natural beauty and having a great skin care routine is just as, if not more, enjoyable.
I feel beautiful and confident when I have clear, dewy glow skin and when I don’t feel that I need to rely on makeup, lashes, or anything artificial.
A killer outfit & having my hair styled!
Good skin days gives me all the confidence!
My precious dog having a happy life!
Clear, glowy skin and my go to outfit!
Glowing skin!
Being confident in your own skin is truly beautiful. Every now and then, everybody needs a little help and SKII is the petrfect way to do it!
Wearing no makeup on good skin days. 🙂
A smooth bright face blemish free gives me the most confidence ☺️
I’m most confident when I am comfortable in the clothes I’m wearing – no point in looking food if you don’t feel good! Also, a nice run in the morning and my day off to a confident and productive start!
My husband actually gives me confidence! 🙂 I have also suffered from eczema and very dry skin my whole life. For these reasons, I typically do not wear makeup and my husband still calls me beautiful. He never expects me to wear makeup so whenever I do, it’s always a nice surprise for him. 🙂
Getting positive feedback on my work is huge as a young professional! Always makes my day a thousand times better.
As a busy stay-at-home mama to three boys (including husband), I don’t always feel fun, carefree, and confident in my everyday life. I tend to get caught up in all of the responsibilities of motherhood and its constant demands, and forget about connecting to the “pre-mom” parts of myself (the one who loves dogs, music, kawaii stuff… the one who enjoys exploring, the one who likes thrifting–mixing and matching outfits, the one who feels extra confident by having a great skincare routine). So glad I came across your blog and got an extra push to reconnect to my pre-mom self. I’d say, clear good skin + comfy, quirky outfit can boost my confidence and help me fulfill my mama duties with a smile ❤
Clear skin, no acne. Skincare is very important to me and I’ve always wanted to try SK ll products! and having a good hair day ? My hair is very curly and frizzy that when it’s not it definitely gives me confidence!
I use to have really bad acne growing up. Now I have scars on my skin I am trying to improve. Great skin makes you feel confident about yourself.
A great work out and a good brow day!
What makes me feel confident is having hydrated skin and a little bit of makeup to cover up my dark circles and even out my skin tone and a good outfit ??????
When I’m red and sweaty with my hair slicked back because I’ve just worked out 🙂
Working out and feeling strong always boosts my confidence, but having clear skin without breakouts makes me feel like I can float away from happiness ?
Beautiful! A fresh cut and dry makes me feel confident. Thanks for doing this giveaway! Would love to join you on your #onebottleawayfrom journey!!! 🙂
Likewise, dry skin has always been my downfall :(. I’m a huge fan of yours though and your posts really motivate me to get my beauty routine perfect for my skin.
I can tackle anything after a good night’s sleep!
It takes self-love for confidence! But having nice skin builds that confidence!! Every girl needs a skin regimen :)!! I loved your before and after pictures!
Compliments from my husband and daughter give me confidence
Eating healthy and minimal makeup makes me feel confidently beautiful
What gives me confidence is when I feel good about myself. I’m still a long way to great skin, but at least I know I’m doing good about it with my skincare regimen. Aside from that, a positive outlook in life is necessary, because what you are inside reflects outside. 🙂
I feel most confident when I have radiant clear skin (so I need only minimal makeup) and after a good workout.
Something that gives me confidence is feeling strong and fit after a good workout!
Exercise gives me confidence because my body feels healthy and energized. I am more comfortable in my own skin now that I’ve started exercising consistently. I feel most beautiful with a natural face, so having clearer skin has definitely boosted my confidence!
It makes me feel confident when I have on a killer outfit, minimal makeup, and sexy lingerie underneath 😉
Having clear smooth skin.
Jamie- I think knowing you’re putting the best version of you out there – builds confidence. That’s what I remind myself whenever I feel like I’m in a rut!!!
By skin is super sensitive and acne-prone, so on the days when i get up and see that I have clear skin, I feel extra confident! I already try not to use foundation and too much other makeup on my skin, but especially on these days I like to have my natural look really work for me (:
I feel most confident when I’m surrounded by good people. Doesn’t matter where I am or what I’m wearing as long as I’m in good company.
My 1 and 3 year old kids give me confidence now!! I was always shy and scared to do anything but now that I have kids it has completely changed me. They give me the courage To face anything that comes my way!
When I feel comfortable enough to leave the house with just a bit of concealer and brow powder, I feel great!
Waking up with glowing, hydrated skin from my 7 step Korean skincare night time routine!
As someone who used to have really bad problem skin having nice skin gives me confidence!
Having a great night sleep and rocking out my morning routine (must include actually doing my hair not a messy bun lol) gives me all the confidence in the world!
Knowing I ate healthy the day before and stay hydrated gives me confidence because I feel energized and not bloated! Bloat kills confidence 😛 Also, high waisted jeans and killer eyebrows.
Thanks for the review! I’ve always wanted to try SK-II but don’t know what to start with.
Wearing a perfectly tailored dress makes me feel confident!
And, I agree- clear, hydrated skin! I feel like ppl are then looking at ME and not my blemishes, pimple..
What makes me confident is knowing that ivr done my best.
Something that gives me confidence is have a game plan for whatever is going on. Knowing what I would like to happen during the day/event/trip is a great confidence boost because then I don’t feel like I’m wasting time
Hey Jamie, it was so great meeting you last fall in NYC during the Fossil event. I believe great skin, smiling all the time, and a healthy mind/body gives me confidence. Thanks so much for this collaboration, and hope you have a great shoot in ATL! :)
Getting a run in. Even if I’m not feeling up to it. After I run I always feel amazing!
Love this documentation! Thanks for the review =)

Something that gives me confidence is that end-of-the-day night time self-care/beauty routine.
Eating a healthy meal gives me confidence!
For me, positive affirmations boost my happiness and self-confidence! It helps me to shift my perspective to the positive things in my life. Can’t wait to see you on The Gifted!
I always feel a bump in confidence after completing a hard workout.
Hydrated skin and lips!
Appreciated the video. I’ve always wanted to try SKII and seems like the products really help.
A good blow out,a pray of subtle perfume, and manicured hands always help boost my confidence!
Awesome results! Looks like an amazing product!
Confidence for me comes from a good night’s sleep =)
Clear and plump skin make me feel confident. As well as a good run!
Growing up I always had issues with hormonal acne (cue the big horrible red monster that rears its ugly head every month). Now in addition to hormonal acne, my skin has gotten more dry and uneven since my recent move to new england for residency. Between the long hours in the hospital, lots on screen time (for writing notes), and the hard new england water my face and scalp has been drier than ever before! :(. For me, what makes me feel confident includes three things: 1) smiling as much as i can because i have a lot to be grateful for and i have one of the best jobs in th world! 2) being able to end the day feeling that ive had the privledge to help someone else and 3) being run out of the door without make up on because hydrated skin needs no makeup and is already the best accessory! Thanks for reading! P.s. its already tomorrow in hong kong was amazing! Such a cliff hanger ending. Will there be a sequel?
Having clean, hydrated & clear skin??
Love your blog!
I’m not great at public speaking but it’s something that I’m working on. When I’m able to command a presence and captivate the audience, that really boosts my confidence and shows that I’m making progress!
Nice skin for the win! what give me confidence, I have very temperamental skin so its always nice when it behaves lol
FYI thanks for sharing, you have beautiful skin and i think its pretty cool you share this journey with us
Since I moved to LA my skin has become so dry and dehydrated! I didn’t care for my face much before but feeling and seeing how dry my face was really shot my confidence level! So I began looking for a face regimen, but still haven’t found the right one! (It’s been a year!) maybe giving SK-II a try will give me some hope! Seeing your journey gives me so much hope! You are beautiful 🙂
When my hair is freshly styled from a trip to the salon.

[…] SK-II #OneBottleAwayFrom Journey – What the Chung? – Aug 16, 2017. I'm always open to trying new products and the team at SK-II told me about their Facial Treatment Essence.
