This is really great! It works wonders when mixed with Estée Lauder products. Such a shame it's been discontinued though. There was nothing quite like it. It's disappointing that it's been discontinued. And for those with oily skin, absolutely avoid using this on its own! It's way too rich. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinNov 8, 2018
This product seems pretty decent! The finish feels quite matte and fresh. It holds up reasonably well throughout the day. You can even reapply it without any issues. The downside is that when it starts to break down, it can get a bit oily. I'm not sure if it's because of the pore-filling base or the foundation itself. Also, it tends to wear off a bit faster than I'd like. If applied on its own, it can be a bit too matte, so I usually spritz some face mist before application or make sure my skincare routine provides enough hydration. This way, it creates a nice balance - moisturized underneath with a fresh, matte finish on top. - Hwahae UserOily SkinOct 6, 2018
Medium coverage, good adherence, and excellent staying power! I got it at a great price from the duty-free shop. Slightly oily texture? When used with Shu Uemura base, it has high longevity. When used alone, the staying power is just so-so. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinJan 23, 2018
I switched to this when it replaced the Architect I used before. It seems like Shu Uemura's signature yellow tint has been significantly reduced. While the original Architect I used would settle into a white finish by evening, this one feels somewhat oily. Sigh, I'm trying to use up this bottle quickly so I can switch to something else. - Hwahae UserNormal SkinNov 11, 2017
My skin texture is well-managed, leaving a smooth, even complexion. The color is beautiful, and this is my second bottle! When I apply it, it has a nice glow. I have combination skin, and my skin does tend to be a bit matte, with a lot of oil secretion... But I really like the way it makes my skin look, so I'm planning to buy some powder to use with it. It's great! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinJul 5, 2017
The longevity is good and it feels very moisturizing to me. I bought the pink base and the adhesion is also good. Most importantly!! The skin feels comfortable as if I'm not wearing any makeup. The coverage is not extremely high, but it seems to be at a certain level. The best points are the comfort of the skin, the longevity, and the skin tone correction to some degree. They said it's moist inside and powdery outside, but it was not powdery at all haha I have a combination skin type and after just an hour or two, oil comes up in the T-zone area. Even though I used powder separately.. I don't recommend it for oily skin types 😅 I got it tested at Shu Uemura, and if you gently dab it on with a wedge puff following the skin texture, it applies quite evenly. The formula is so moist and thin that the staff told me this is how I should apply it. :) And if you use it with the Shu Uemura primer, it works much better~~ - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinApr 11, 2017
When I apply cosmetics due to oily skin, my pores become enlarged and I have an oily skin type with large pores, which is a concern of mine. Everyone raved about it, so I bought it. When I first applied it, I was amazed and couldn't believe it. It's like the skin of a 5-year-old child. My pores are completely invisible, and a natural peach glow returns to my skin, making me say that my skin looks great. However, this only lasts for an hour and a half. Everything I mentioned above comes back. My pores get clogged, it becomes disgustingly uneven, and the oil coming out is just terrifying. My mom saw it and said my skin looks cleaner without makeup. Sigh... my 60,000 won... But! The fitting base primer? that was given to me as a sample at the Shu Uemura store, and the face oil called the Artist Oil, when I applied them, my skin really became transparent, radiant, and like a 5-year-old's. However, I knew that in an hour and a half, my skin would reveal its true self, so I just went with it. But wow, after applying it and going out at 10 in the morning to Seokchon Lake, when I came back at 12 at night, my skin was still flawless. My friends said my skin condition was the best ever. It seems that using it alone was too much. I'm planning to get the primer soon.
