Shiseido The Makeup Concealer Stick

After 2 weeks that I just spent in Russia I really can use some good concealer to cover up my "lovely" dark circles from late night's and partying hard with my friends. If you are looking for a full coverage concealer, look into Shiseido. This little guy is super powerful when it comes to covering dark circles, blemishes and brown spots. The formula is super thick but yet light on your skin, not greasy at all. It's creamy, non-drying and goes on super smooth. I've been using it under my eyes with a little sheer powder to set, blends very easy and doesn't cake.   I actually think that Shiseido stick concealer is almost identical to the famous  Cle De Peau stick concealer. Downside is the fact that only 3 shades are available with no options for darker skin tones. Overall 9/10

Shiseido:Ultimate Sun Protection Cream For Face SPF55

I've been using a Retinol treatment lately and I was looking for a good sunblock for my face that 1) offered high UVA/UVB protection 2) Didn't make me look like a ghost and 3) was mattifying for  my combination skin

So I gave a Shiseido a try and I am glad I did. This cream is seems to be the best of what I've tried (and I did try a lot throughout last 5 years) It gives me everything I wanted and then some. High SPF? Check. Pasty? No, not really. Matte skin? Check!  I am serious when I say that this cream is like a mattifier and primer in one. It's super water resistant and lasts all day on my face without separating or getting greasy. It does go on a little white but I noticed that after 5 minutes my skin looks normal again, the cream absorbs quickly. Now for the cons: it's pricey yes, thats why I purchased a travel version first and some people with drier skin types might not find it moisturizing enough so I would recommend to use light moisturizer under. Other than that I think this is my "must-have" product and I will re-purchase.
