First tried this primer when I had my make up done at a Shiseido counter before a wedding. The make up lasted all day and night. For the next wedding I couldn't get my make up done so I just...

I really want to love this primer, but it has one flaw to me and it just messes up the whole thing. Its that pink-white color of it. Is it supposed to make your complexion brighter? or just your...

This primer isn't just a primer; it is also a very effective skincare product with a good amount of stable sun protection. Shiseido Refining Makeup Primer mattifies the skin, smooths it out,...

I had seen some great reviews on this and had been wanting it for quite a while when I got a deluxe sample from Sephora.com. I should have read the ingredients before I even tried this. This has...

I had a few generous samples of this to try out from my local Shiseido counter. This is one of the nicest primers I've tried. I am not really a fan of the thicker "spackle" type primers. They...

Before I bought this, I used Tom Ford's and was disappointed. After reading several reviews, I decided to give this a try. I'm Japanese, but I sort of avoided Shiseido almost all my life, since I...

I decided to try another primer other than the Smashbox one with sunscreen. So when I saw this SPF21 Shiseido primer I thought I'd buy it from StrawberryNet. I don't want to pick on StrawberryNet...

I got this as a X-Mas gift. I have never really been a strong believer in face primers. I always thought they were pointless, a scam, just more unnecessary chemicals on your face, that foundation...

Don't really like it that much because it doesn't seem to make much difference to when I don't wear it. Another thing that I don't like about it is the color, and when i don't spread it out...

This product is quite good in that after applying you tend to apply less foundation and it does have a refining effect but it also does have a cast to it which does make foundation look different...
