Bought the Shiseido Synchro Skin Lasting Liquid Foundation to replace my finishing cushion foundation. Each time I finish my cushion, I have the tendency to go back to foundation. Recently the weather has been really crazy; everyday's temperature ranges from 32 degree to 34 degree Celsius. I need a long lasting foundation that last throughout the day.
This oil-free foundation claims to synchronize with your skin and enhances it beautifully. It is pretty runny and easily spread across the skin. It should last about 6 to 7 hours in our humid weather. I got this in the shade Golden 2.
On the left is my skin without foundation while on the right is after foundation. As you can probably tell, all my imperfections has been covered up without the use of concealer. The semi-matte finish doesn't make my skin look oilier. I figured that I wouldn't want to look dewy in this weather. Dewy makeup just doesn't last!
Skin looks really good.
Somehow pores got accentuated once I add my highlighter. Shimmers always do that to my skin. But otherwise, foundation looks good!
I documented how I feel about the foundation throughout the day.
- 10am: Just applied the foundation. Realised it has a high coverage which is obviously better coverage than my cushion. Skin feels and look satin-smooth.
- 11pm: Sister commented that my skin looks like my skin but better.
- 2.30pm: Slight shine on the nose area. All of the makeup is still intact.
- 5.30pm: Some foundation came off at the nose area due to constant nose blowing. But the rest of the makeup is still intact. Blot twice with tissue and everything looks good again.
- 7.30pm: Makeup looking really natural with shine on T-zone. After blotting, it looks perfect again.
- 8.30pm: Do not see the need to reapply foundation.
After 10 hours, slight shine on T zone. Redness at the nose area.
Overall, I feel that this foundation does a pretty good job and it is indeed long lasting!
Today I applied my foundation with a beauty blender. I would try on with a brush next time and see how it looks.
