I have heard a lot about Shisiedo products, every beauty blogger I checked out praised their products - stating that this brand was their 'holy grail' product. When my StriVectin SD ran out I wanted to try something new, StriVectin SD is just fine but I wanted to explore what else was out there. I wanted to find my 'holy grail' face cream. Because I had heard so much positive feedback with regard to Shiseido products I dove in feet first and bought face cream, 2 eye creams, facial wash, and face scrubbing brush.

I bought all these Shiseido products not too far apart. I guess I should've waited to see how well the first product worked before I bought more from this brand. But I was so sold on the product line based on all the reviews I read, I couldn't wait to try each thing. I've been using two of Shiseido eye creams for about two months. I couldn't decide which to buy after reading the reviews. I was deciding between the Benefiance Wrinkle Resist 24 and the Bio-Performance Super Eye Contour creams. The Benefiance cream sounded great with claims that it had an extract to revitalize cells and counteract loss of firmness. And stated this formula provides intense moisture and promotes collagen production. The only con is people stated it was super thick and slow to absorb, being better used at night. With the Bio-performance eye cream the con was primarily the packaging. Everyone stated they loved it but half way through you have to pull apart the packaging to get at the remaining cream. The cream does not claim anything special other then to be good at fighting wrinkles and dark circles. People also said it was fast absorbing. So I figured I'd get both - using Benefiance at night and the Bio-performance for daytime. And again, as with the face cream, I haven't noticed anything special about the eye creams.

The last of the Shiseido products I bought was the Benefiance Wrinkle Resist 24 Extra Creamy Foaming Cleanser and the facial cleansing brush. While the cleanser does lather very nicely and does clean my face - I find nothing special about it. For $35 I am confident that I can find a cleanser I like just as well for a lot less money. Regarding the brush - its a nice little tool to wash your face - though pricey at $25.
Shiseido has more then it's fair share of loyal followers but as for me I don't get it and will never buy a product from this line again. If you're looking for a great face cream - the only one I've found thus far is Dr. Brandt Glow Overnight Resurfacing Serum. I found instant results and love it!
