To replace foundation with a primer, it’s good to find a primer that can provide both strong coverage for makeup and include skincare benefits. Foundation is often used to color correct and balance our skin tone, but sometimes this can be too much everyday. Sometimes you just want a face primer that’s good for daily use and feels light and barely even noticeable.

With the Microfit Technology of the Future Solution LX Infinite Treatment Primer you can receive the reassurance of 8-hour coverage that you may receive from a foundation but with far less maintenance and with the added benefits of 70%+ skincare ingredients^* for a natural pearlescent glow.

A face primer can help you smooth uneven texture and tones to provide a flush makeup base. Choosing a primer that works with your foundation helps ensure they go one easily and work as a set, to better evenly blend into your skin for a superior finish. The Future Solution LX Infinite Treatment Primer is designed especially to pair with Total Radiance Foundation E cream, Total Radiance Loose Powder E, and Total Radiance Regenerating Cushion Foundation.

To achieve glowing skin a skincare routine that is focused on hydration is essential. Most of the time people consider cleansers and moisturizers, but usually not hydrating primers to fill this role. It’s because most primers are viewed as just makeup-based products to fill in wrinkles and pores. However, with 70% or more skincare ingredients^*, the SHISEIDO Future Solution LX Infinite Treatment Primer is made for skincare purposes first. It’s specially designed to smooth away pores and correct your complexion as it nourishes, protects and revitalizes the skin itself. And as a dual-purpose primer, It’s perfect for a light everyday makeup base.

Japanese beauty is based on the idea of blending nature, art and science. Japan's deep connection to its surrounding nature and rich history of beauty secrets passed along for generations are now further enhanced in the modern world by cutting edge research and innovation into skincare treatments to help treat aging factors like wrinkles. This carries SHISEIDO’s philosophy to look to the depths of time for the future of skincare.

For instance, a rare pearl known in Japan was studied and found to have superior emitting properties to help illuminate skin and is the basis for our new primer. Or being inspired by a monk performing a miraculous recovery of a traveler from the legendary Enmei herb which is the ingredient that now powers our Future Solution LX Collection with its skin vitalizing properties.
