Shiseido MAQuillAGE Dramatic Skin Sensor Base UV — Makeup Base SPF 25 PA+++, 25 ml
The MAQuillAGE Dramatic Skin Sensor Base UV is Shiseido's intelligent makeup primer that adapts to your skin's condition throughout the day. Its smart-sebum-control technology reads and responds to skin oiliness — absorbing excess sebum where skin tends to shine while preserving moisture in drier zones — so your foundation stays flawless and your skin neither shines nor dries out. SPF 25 PA+++ provides solid UV protection as a daily makeup base. Released in an updated formula in February 2019.

FAQ
What does "Skin Sensor" technology mean?
Shiseido's Skin Sensor technology uses a specially formulated powder that physically responds to the sebum level in each zone of the face — absorbing oil in areas that get shiny (nose, forehead, chin) while retaining moisture in drier zones (cheeks). The result is naturally balanced skin that stays matte where needed without drying out.
Is SPF 25 PA+++ enough for daily use?
SPF 25 PA+++ provides adequate protection for indoor and urban daily use. If you spend extended time outdoors, layering this base under an SPF 50 cushion or powder will provide additional protection. For high-UV exposure days, use a dedicated SPF 50+ sunscreen before applying makeup.
Does this work under powder and liquid foundation equally?
Yes. The base is formulated to be compatible with all foundation types. For liquid foundation, apply a thin layer of base and allow 30 seconds before foundation. For powder foundation, the base creates an ideal semi-matte surface for even powder adhesion.
Is this the genuine Japanese version?
Yes. This is the MAQuillAGE Skin Sensor Base sold in Japan's domestic market, stocked by Tsujimoto Market directly from Japanese suppliers. Packaging is in Japanese.
How long does shipping take?
Processing takes 2–6 business days from our Kobe warehouse. International delivery typically takes 7–21 days. A tracking number is provided after dispatch.
