This foundation provides good medium coverage. It has a nice glowy matte finish.I have very dry older skin and prefer full coverage so I use it with a CC cream. The shade B20 is not my shade but it melts into my skin. Today someone actually told me I had great skin. This has long lasting coverage that holds up better then some of the newer foundations from Shisedo.
The Shiseido advanced hydro-liquid compact is a home run. Not only does it provide excellent coverage but it hydrates your skin to make it look smooth. I also love the compact since it is small enough to throw in a small bag and take anywhere. You can also purchase the compact holder that has a mirror on the inside for application.
