What it is
Ingredients
How to use
When using a dry sponge: Take an appropriate amount of foundation onto the sponge and spread it evenly. When using a wet sponge (only for foundations that can be used with or without water): Moisten the sponge with water and wring it out before use. . If the sponge becomes dirty, it will be difficult to apply foundation, so always keep it clean. If the sponge becomes dirty, use Shiseido Sponge Cleaner N (sold separately) or gently press it with a mild detergent diluted in lukewarm water. After rinsing thoroughly to remove all detergent, drain the water and dry thoroughly in the shade before use. For Anessa foundation, use the dedicated sponge (sold separately).

We're working on rolling out prepaid duties for more countries soon.
I bought this bag to carry around for alterations. The size is just right and it's easy to use. It comes with a cover so it's easy to carry around and looks neat.
I bought this to touch up my makeup. It comes with a case and has corners, so it's easy to touch up even the smallest of details! I can touch up my makeup beautifully.
When I apply powder foundation with this, it applies evenly and I feel like it gives better coverage than applying it with the included sponge. It has good coverage even when applied quickly without applying too much pressure, so I think it's less likely to strain my skin.
The sponge is large and thick, so you can use it without applying pressure. It also comes with a case, so I carry it around with me when I need to touch up my makeup.
It's easy to hold and use. I've been using it at home in the mornings.
