The Shiseido compact is one of the birthday gifts I got for myself this year, and I'll try to make this review a simple one!
I wanted to get myself only the refill since I already have the case, but on the second thought, I should get myself a new case too, hahahhahhahahahhahahahahahahahahahahaha.
Please note that the compact and the case are sold separately.
The compact foundation is now housed in the a sleek refillable compact that comes in the shape of Shiseido's signature camellia. I like its identity because most compact cases are round and sometimes square.
✦ Look at its glossy top ✦
Don't you love how the black and matte nude beige make the case appear more outstanding?
The compact refill comes with a sponge and a protective sheet, too.
Okay, here's the real review.
Texture: ★★★★★
The powder stays true to its name, it is very sheer and absolutely light on the skin. It feels smooth and not cakey, and it gives a subtle glow too✶ My colleagues actually asked me if I applied any powder or anything before going to school because they just could not tell. However, if you are looking for a powder that is towards heavy-duty or can cover obvious imperfection, I won't recommend this.
Scent: ★★★★★
It is fragrance-free!
Performance: ★★★★☆
The powder is very handy if you are short of time, lazy or just want to have a very light makeup. I am always the lazy or the latter. Full coverage is never necessary especially because I am a teacher yet I want to make myself look presentable. This Sheer and Perfect is able to absorb and mattify excess oil on the face, and does a good job for touch-ups. Even though it claims to be suitable for all skin types, I personally feel that it suits better for dry, normal or combination.
Swatch:
Will I purchase again?
I have been using the Sheer and Perfect compact for years, and haven't thought of switching to another brand! YESSSSSSSSSS.
Please stay tuned for more reviews! =D
