RevitalEssence Skin Glow Foundation SPF 30
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
Shiseido Revitalessence Skin Glow Foundation delivers a very obvious, long-lasting glow that persists even after an hour, according to professional makeup artist CYoung. However, she warns it is never for oily skin or those with visible pores, as it emphasizes texture and can feel sticky. She also notes it may be too much glow for daily wear and prefers newer formulas like Hera or Haus Labs.
