oh{FISH}iee: SHISEIDO Ibuki Smart Filtering Smoother: Say Goodbye to Beauty Camera Apps!

My recent lunch date with Shiseido Malaysia is a lovely beauty affair that brings me excitement and surprise with the launch of a new product in Shiseido Ibuki skincare line. ❤ I believe Shiseido is no stranger to us, and over all these years it has remarkably undergone several breakthroughs in the beauty and cosmetics industry, bringing us innovative surprises from time to time.

Shiseido Ibuki and Ultimune, are amongst Shiseido's keys towards smoother, suppler skin.

Shiseido Ibuki Smart Filtering Smoother (20ml) @ RM140

The brand recently introduces a new addition to the Shiseido Ibuki solution-based skincare series for achieving readily photogenic skin. So, what exactly is Shiseido Ibuki Smart Filtering Smoother? It is a skincare product to instantly cover shine, uneven contours and visible pores.

How does it work?

All thanks to the Photogenic Skin Technology, we can have photo-ready skin anytime anywhere, and we don't need the smartphone beauty app anymore. This smart technology combines micro powder evenly into a serum base and the best part is, it can selectively deliver powder to the pores when blended into the skin.

When the powder collects in pores containing sebum,

it gives a smooth serum texture and perfects the skin as if makeup has been applied.

(The oil-controlling effect can last up to 8 hours)

Personal Experience.

To be honest, I have not expected a drop of this miraculous serum is just SO good! I have been using it over the makeup and it works really well in controlling sebum especially around the T-zone area. I am surprised by how well the product reduces shine and visible pores on the nose.

I find it suitable for my skin as it reduces the size of my large visible pores. The overall makeup looks smoother and more “porcelain-like” now :) Thank you Shiseido Malaysia for introducing this amazing product to my skin and I am totally in love with it!
