   I love the CC cream and sunblock gel from the Kose Sekkisei Line, so when I saw this foundation on sale for 35% off at my local drugstore, I snatched it up. At full price, 4,000JPY plus tax, it`s not exactly high end, but it`s definitely more expensive than your average Japanese drugstore foundation. The coverage is sheer, inching up its way to medium, but not quite. The coverage and finish remind me of Suqqu`s newish serum liquid foundation or La Mer, though slightly less dewy. It is beautiful and looks like skin when applied with a damp beauty blender, but you will definitely need concealer to cover up any blemishes. The finish is not dewy, nor is it matte. It wore beautifully on me for 6 hours, then it separated on my chin and nose, my oiliest parts of the face. If you are super pale, then you will find some good shades to match you, but if you are more than a medium complexion, you`re out of luck. Most likely because this is a Japanese product that caters to people who want to lighten their complexion, so such people in Asia mostly tend to buy much lighter colored foundations anyway. I much prefer the CC cream from this line, as I find the coverage to be better, and the formula easier to be blended with fingers. The foundation is more watery, so you will need a sponge or brush. THe packaging is a clean pump. There is no scent with this foundation, which is a huge plus in my book. I will not repurchase because I much prefer the CC cream from Kose, and for 600 yen more, I can buy the Koh Gen Do Aqua foundation, which is my HG. If you like a sheer look with clean ingredients, I think you would like this.
