Shiseido Ultimune Power Infusing Concentrate Review

I like this product- I'm half way down my first bottle of the 30ml size, it's hydrating and really smoothing but I'm not sure if it's suitable for my skin as using it before another serum seems a bit too much for me. It was fine when it was colder, but nearing into summer, the added layer is surely noticeable. I would recommend it for perhaps quite dry skin types that require an extra boost on top of what they already use.

I received a deluxe sample size of this serum in a Shiseido skincare pack. I found at first that this made zero difference in the appearence of my skin. It is beautifuly light and refreshing to apply, and has the heavy Shiseido fragrance, but nonetheless I didnt buy into the hype that the saleswoman impressed on me. After another Shiseido facial however, I thought I would give this another try.

I use this after toner morning and night and am definately seeing some results. I have a lot of acne scarring, and found that rosehip oil helped the scarring, but made the oiliness worse. This serum improves the appearance of the scarring, without adding heavy oils to my face.

I have another deluxe sample size tube to get through which will decide for me whether I should take the plunge and repurchase, but at this point I am definately a fan!

i have oily acne prone skin ,however this essence doesnt make my face super oily and brighten up skin tone a little bit .

I really enjoy the feel of this concentrate. It absorbs quickly on the skin and a little goes a long way. My skin feels smooth and hydrated after applying this.

I got this product in a 30ml bottle, It does come in other sizes also. This serum is just what I needed to fit into my skincare routine at the moment. I have currently been using the Ibuki range aswell as a few products from the White Lucent range, as I am wanting to target some pigmentation and dryness in my skin

It has gorgeous pink and cream packaging, a glass bottle with a handy pump.

This product is a pre-serum you apply it before your normal serum or moisturiser you are using.

Its texture is a light gel and feels lovely to apply to my face, it's very cooling and glides over easily, using the 2 pumps as recommended and made my skin feel instantly hydrated.

It has the signature shisedo fragrance to it.

I've been using this product for about 3 weeks and my skin has definitely felt more hydrated, plumper and I have noticed a slight difference in my fine lines. I would love to keep using this product but will definitely purchase it when it is on sale

The container is so nice to hold does just fit perfectly in the palm of my hand a lovely crimson clear colour with a pull off lid. A pump dispenser makes getting this clear serum out. A couple of pumps morning and night after cleansing and softener then this serum before more serums or and cream it’s meant to help other things absorb and restructure the skin being the ultimate serum. Fragrance like most of the shiseido range it’s a little floral to a warm amber. Anyway this serum does slide so nicely over my face and neck also it absorbs pretty quickly into my skin it doesn’t feel sticky I’m just left soft and moisturised it probably took a couple of weeks of using this to see the full benefits and having skin that looked a little brighter softer and moisturised. It’s the next step that was like omg this is such a mission then apply another serum then cream then more, it just became such a mission in the morning my skin routine was taking longer than my shower. It’s a lovely product and does make skin look softer and brighter but you have to be prepared to put in the time.
