Sensai Foundations – Complexion with Koishimaru Silk

Sensai Foundations: light before coverage

A complexion thought of as a silk

Sensai, the Japanese maison of the Kanebo group, formulates its foundations around Koishimaru Silk. Where many houses seek to mask, the brand seeks to diffuse light: the finish stays legible, the skin keeps its texture. That explains the place of illuminators and translucent powders in the range, alongside the foundations themselves.

The foundations

Radiant Glow Foundation SPF 10 comes in nine shades and plays on radiance; Fawless Satin Moisture SPF 25 aims for a satin, hydrating finish in seven shades; Total Finish is the refillable compact, to pair with its case. The Glowing Base preps the skin before application.

Correct, powder, illuminate

The highlighting concealer works the eye area in four shades, the translucent loose powder sets without weight, the Supreme Illuminator places the points of light and the bronzing gel warms the complexion. The hydrating fix mist, the liquid foundation brush and the blotting papers complete the ritual.

Choosing the right shade

A foundation is chosen on the jawline, in daylight, never on the back of the hand: it is the only place where you can see whether the shade blends with the neck. Every reference shows its swatch and the official house code on its page. For eyes and lips, the Sensai Couleurs range takes over; the whole is gathered in our Make-up selection.
