About Shiseido

Shiseido is one of the oldest cosmetic brands in the world, founded in Tokyo in 1872 by Arinobu Fukuhara. The brand sits as a global beauty leader and is widely respected for its long-wear foundation technology — with the Synchro Skin family extending that long-wear logic across foundation textures, including the Self-Refreshing Custom Finish powder.

Key benefits

• Sheer-to-medium buildable coverage for a clean, even, just-applied finish.
• ActiveForce technology — self-refreshing wear that resists heat, humidity, oil and motion through 24 hours per the brand.
• Wet or dry application for tailored finish — sheer dry, more polished wet.
• Eight-hour shine control suited to combination and oily skin.
• Non-comedogenic formula.
• Shade 160 Shell — a balanced fair-light tone, suited to lighter skin.

Who it's for

Anyone wanting reliable long-wear powder foundation through warm climates, long working days or events — particularly suited to combination and oily skin and to anyone whose foundation typically migrates by mid-afternoon. Suits both newcomers to powder foundation and long-time wearers.

How to use

1. Prepare the skin with your usual moisturiser and primer; allow to absorb.
2. For dry application: use the white side of the sponge to pick up powder and press onto the skin.
3. For wet application: dampen the sponge with water and squeeze out excess, then use the black side to apply for a more polished finish.
4. Build a second pass over areas that need more coverage rather than applying heavily in one go.
5. Refresh through the day with a quick dry-sponge pass over the t-zone.
