    I bought this for the summer. It lasts along time, not oily when applied. Can be a bit drying around the mouth but you must moisturize with your own cream after. Amazing product that I use every summer!

    Awesome product! I like this non-greasy and lightweight formula and it's easy to use. Also it smells good.

    This sunscreen absorbed into the skin really quickly, and was not very greasy. This did leave a slight white cast, but it was not too noticeable. This sunscreen really is waterproof. It is also relatively oil proof, as it lasts for quite a long time on the skin.

    I absolutely love this sun screen its smooth non oily and it doesnt have a strong smell
    this is a bit pricey as it is a high end brand but you can always but a bunch of stuff and get their free samples in their promotional bag

    I started to use this around July 4th and I have to say this is a fabulous find. I will reveal it's one flaw (maybe 2 at most) early on:
    I am normally NW35 in MAC's studio fix fluid and I am the DARKEST shade (SP07) in this Shiseido foundation. SP07 STILL is a little too light but it is ridiculous. This means that MANY women cannot enjoy this product.
    Anyways, enough about bashing.
    This product is PA and broad spectrum which means that it protects against both aging and cancer rays by the sun (aka UVA/UVB). Yesterday I was outside for 4 hours in the hot FL sun and did NOT get sunburned whatsoever. Shiseido themselves does not recommend that you do this, by the way LOL.

    In addition, it is a very thin foundation that is still full coverage. In other words, it will not look cakey while still giving you the coverage that you need for hot summer days.

    I also find that it stays put in the pool, throughout a work day (9-5), and when just running errands throughout the day. It is moisturizing and does not feel heavy on.

    So all in all, if you are NW35 or lighter, go buy this foundation! It is available only in the USA at Macy's Shiseido counters.

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE this sunscreen !!!!!!!!!!
    It's not oily at all !!! SPF 55 is enough for summer days !! (for winter i feel a SPF 35 is enough )plus this sunscreen has PA which protects your skins from getting tanned !!!! so this is great for those chicks, who likes white skin , not tanned ( more Asian ..hehe ~~)
    This sunscreen is great from both your face and body !!! but i feel it's a bit expensive for my legs.. so usually i just put this on my face and neck (neck is VERY important !) and arms. For legs I often use Neutrogena spray (I will review that product following this one) For face you put this on before primer and foundation. AGAIN, you confirm you. THIS IS NOT OILY !! i have combination skin and is very oily at T-Zone. So I would definitely recommend you to get this !!!! If you don't have one already ! Enjoy the summer everyone !!!

    I LOVE this sunscreen!
    I have oily, acne prone, super sensitive skin, and I believe that wearing this under my makeup every day has seriously improved the overall quality of my skin.
    It's healthier and clear, and I hope it stays like this forever!

    As someone who's outside a LOT year-round (I work outside and I'm a runner), I was looking for something that didn't FEEL like sunscreen but that would protect my skin no matter what I put it through.

    Shiseido sunscreen works like a charm.
    It's pricey, but if you consider it a moisturizer/sunscreen/base hybrid product, it really isn't so bad (and a tube of it lasts for more than 3 months with everyday wear).
    It absorbs into my skin quickly and it doesn't feel slick or greasy the way other sunscreens can.
    PLUS, it doesn't look all shiney/slick the way that other sunscreen products tend to.
    I'll never try another sunscreen,
    This has me completely won over!

    (Plus, if you don't mind battling the crowds and live in the GTA, there's a bi-annual Shiseido warehouse sale in Markham that's COMPLETELY worth the trip!)

    But the sunscreen sells out quickly on the first day :)
