This is my first time purchasing a SHISEIDO product. I love how it leaves my skin incredibly moisturized. After using this primer, I apply a tinted primer in selected areas and then powder. I wish I had purchased this product sooner!
I bought the full product after using the sample. It naturally conceals sagging pores and doesn't feel dry all day. I've been struggling with primers, so I'm thrilled to have finally found it. It pairs best with Shiseido's serum foundation. I plan to keep buying it outside of summer.
I bought this after seeing it being used on YouTube. It's not oily or shiny, but it's not drying either. It doesn't have much coverage, so it doesn't really hide redness from acne scars or other skin problems. I plan to keep using it until the UV rays get stronger.
I'm so glad I bought this! I'm so satisfied! I didn't feel any dryness at all, even on a blustery windy day or in a room that was dry from the heating! The light, gel-like texture spreads easily. And it feels like it adheres perfectly to the skin! Thanks to this, I was able to put on makeup in the morning and look beautiful even after finishing the gym at night. I think it also removes makeup easily because it adheres so well...! Even after removing my makeup, my skin feels moisturized and not tired, which is amazing. If you're looking for coverage in a primer, I recommend using it in conjunction with other products rather than using this alone. I've been using a dry primer until now. The moisturizing power is fine, but my skin felt a little tired after removing my makeup, so I wanted something with moisturizing power and beauty ingredients, so I bought this. I'm so glad I did!
I use it after applying sunscreen. It doesn't have much coverage, but it brightens my skin tone. My foundation goes on well afterwards too. I think it's a Shiseido product, as you'd expect.
