I previously purchased a small trial bottle from the official Shiseido website and liked the feel, so I purchased this on the 1st from the Suzykirei website. It feels like it penetrates into my face thoroughly. I love it. It's not yet the sunny season, so I'm looking forward to seeing if my dark spots increase in spring and summer. I'll buy a refill when it runs out. Until now, I've been using Menard's Fairlucent whitening serum morning and night for many years, but I feel like my skin has gotten used to it, or maybe my dark spots are increasing... I'd like to stick with this whitening serum for a while.
I buy this about once a year at the Suzykirei shopping event. It's not cheap, but I use this for six months, then a different whitening serum for the next six months... I repeat this cycle, and when I use the other serum, the lighter spots start to show up... so I'm back here.
It absorbs smoothly into the skin and is very comfortable to use. I think the whitening effect is still to come, so I'd like to continue using it for a while.
It has a refreshing texture that's great for summer, but I feel like it's not moisturizing enough for winter. However, I think it's good value for money. I use it when I've been exposed to UV rays for a long time.
Speaking of whitening, HAKU is the name to go for! Since one of my beauty goals this year is to whiten my skin, I started by purchasing HAKU's serum. I can't really say for sure until I continue using it, but it's so comfortable to use that I think I'll keep using it.
