SHISEIDO Brush Pouch Kit (Foundation 140 + Powder 01 + MARU FUDE)

I had a touch-up done and was so impressed with the beautiful finish that I decided to purchase it. They used a diagnostic machine to check my skin tone and neck color and suggested a color that would look natural. I apply it with my fingers at home, but I think a brush makes it look more beautiful, so I'm considering purchasing one.

I took a small amount in my hand and spread it with my fingers. It spread easily and blended well into my skin. However, my nose and other areas tend to get shiny in the evening, so I felt I needed to use a powder. It also removed my makeup well, so I'm satisfied overall!

I was impressed! As expected from a pricey product, it has good coverage but still leaves a natural skin feel, and I would like to use it again.

This is my favorite foundation I've ever used. *The only other foundation I've used is Shu Uemura Unlimited something (around 2022), so it's not really comparable... I tend to get acne when I wear makeup for long periods of time, but this doesn't happen when I wear it! It's also less drying, and even when it does get shiny, it has a beautiful shine. I used up one bottle in a year and am now on my second. I'd like to try other foundations, but for now I'm repeating this one because it doesn't have any added benefits. I layer it over my Dalba primer.

It spreads easily and a small amount provides good coverage. I was able to remove it with makeup remover without clogging my pores.
