Shiseido Synchro Skin Long Lasting Foundation Review


Hello to my fellow beauties. Today's product review is a foundation that was sent to me complimentary from Influenster for review purposes.

The Shiseido synchro skin long lasting foundation is a new formula inspired from Japanese beauty culture, made in Japan. This product claims the following:

  • Long lasting finish
  • Full coverage
  • Eliminates dullness with vibrant foundation
  • Provides all day wear
  • Price is $58 Canadian / 1 Fl Oz
 After testing and using this product out on myself here are my thoughts:

  • Formula is a very watery based consistency, lasting power on my skin (oily combo) was not long
  • Coverage is light to medium, can be build able BUT it will begin to look cakey
  • This foundation made my skin look more dull then vibrant. 
  • Clings to dry patches I didn't know I had, which is odd for a water base formula.
  • Broke me out instantly with in hours of wear
  • Did not cover my redness, had to use a heavy duty concealer to hide redness (Note a good foundation will not need you to use a heavy concealer)
For the price of this foundation my final thoughts are, if your going to spend $60 on a foundation which is pricey it needs to work for you.
This foundation I see would work for those people who have perfect skin with no issues (IE: Redness, acne etc) That is not me unfortunately LOL
Not my favorite formula, your best bet is to ask for a sample first to try it before making the huge money plunge.

Quick Review: MAC Face and Body Foundation

Ola beauty lovers! So I am coming to you today with a product review. Few months ago I managed to score the MAC Face and Body Foundation at their semi annual warehouse sale for $12! YES! What a steal! I picked up the shade C4. Matches me pretty good. I was so excited about this foundation, thinking that it will be another medium to full coverage foundation I can use in rotation in my collection.

Well, this week I cracked this puppy out, and I was so bummed that it was not full coverage. I would have to place this foundation in the light to medium coverage category. It applies nicely to the skin and using my Sigma kabuki brush it blends well. BUT this is such a light coverage that even applying two layers I am lucky if my skin is medium covered. The wear ability throughout the day well, because its such light coverage, there's not much there to begin with. This formula is very light. You can barely feel it on your skin. Which doesn't have to be a bad thing. I would definitely say if you are looking for a light weight, light coverage foundation for the summer time then this face & body foundation is definitely on the thumbs up.

The bottle is pretty large so it should last you awhile if you don't use a lot of product to try to make it full coverage. I can tell you right now, don't waste the product to attempt full coverage because it won't get there. The packaging is plastic so you can squeeze it out which it is not a pump but still functional without having to dip your brush into the product. So that's a good. 

The retail cost for 50ML of this foundation is about $30. Yes for a light foundation that is a bit steep. Thank god I got it at my discount price, because if I spent full price I would return it.

In my opinion for me normally when I purchase a foundation I would expect it to be at least medium to full coverage. I mean what is the point of wearing a foundation if its not medium to full coverage any way?

Leave me a comment down below if you have tried this foundation and what are your thoughts?


Until next time beauty lovers xo
