Shiseido Synchro Skin Self-Refreshing Cushion Compact Foundation Refill 13g in shade 220 Linen is the dedicated refill cushion for Shiseido's bestselling cushion compact — designed to top up the existing case rather than replace it. The lightweight, naturally luminous formula combines the brand's signature ActiveForce™ technology with broad-spectrum SPF35/PA++++ sun protection and up to 16 hours of self-refreshing wear, for skin that looks freshly applied even at the end of a long day.
About Shiseido Synchro Skin
Shiseido is Japan's oldest cosmetics house, founded in 1872 in Tokyo's Ginza district. The Synchro Skin Self-Refreshing range is the brand's modern complexion line, built around proprietary ActiveForce™ technology — an interlocking-particle system designed to adapt as the skin moves, sweats and warms through the day. The Cushion Compact format brings this technology into a cushion-applicator format favoured in Japanese and Korean beauty routines.
Key features
- Refill format — designed to slot into the existing Synchro Skin Cushion Compact case (sold separately), reducing packaging waste with each top-up.
- ActiveForce™ technology — Shiseido's signature interlocking-particle system that adapts to heat, humidity, oil and motion.
- Up to 16 hours of self-refreshing wear — finish stays fresh through a full day.
- SPF35 / PA++++ broad-spectrum sun protection
- Naturally luminous finish — neither flat-matte nor overly dewy.
- Buildable medium coverage — sheer-to-medium on the first pass; layerable for fuller cover.
Shade — 220 Linen
220 Linen is a light-medium shade with neutral undertones — flattering on light-medium skin tones that read neither distinctly pink nor distinctly yellow. Sits in the middle of the brand's lighter shade range.
Who it's for
Best suited to fans of Japanese-style cushion-compact application — particularly useful for normal, combination and oily skin types looking for a refreshing, glowy finish that holds through long days. The refill format is ideal for existing Synchro Skin Cushion Compact owners; new users will need to purchase the case (sold separately) before using the refill.
How to use
- Open the existing Synchro Skin Cushion Compact case.
- Carefully remove the empty cushion using the small tab on the side.
- Click the new refill cushion firmly into place.
- Press the included puff onto the cushion to pick up product.
- Pat onto the centre of the face — forehead, nose, cheeks, chin — and outwards, building coverage gradually.
- Reapply during the day for a quick refresh.
