I'm always confident with Shiseido product, but their moisturizer is somewhat sticky and this one has a touch of sunscreen product.

Excellent
-03.21.13
Imply skin has recently started feeling a little drier and I normally use the white Lucent lotion(in the pump bottle)
I was finding it not quite moisturizing enough lately and decided to try the cream version. I think this is better than the lotion. It's just so hydrating but not greasy and heavy. I have acne prone sensitive skin and it doesn't make me break out, it just makes my skin soft and helps fade my scars faster.
It also goes well under my makeup.

Minimizing the redness!!
-09.18.12
Very soft and dewy when you put it on and I love the fact that it has slowly minimized the redness around the mouth area. I have very sensitive skin so anything that has citrus makes my face red! I also have the cleanser! Now I am getting the toner! Nice line for those who have sensitve skin!!

Great Stuff
-11.28.11
Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly
I love this moisturizer (including the scent). The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that it really doesn't do any obvious brightening, but still, the effects of the lotion are obvious.

Quick Take: too greasy
I have been a fan of the White Lucent series. Ordered this item for the first time, hoping it could offer the protection I need through mild California winter. My skin just wouldn't absorb it AT ALL. It rubs off and becomes bubbly no matter what I do. Had to return it with disappointment.

I Love it!

Quick Take: absorbs quickly
I have dry and fair skin and was looking for a moisturizer that would keep my face hydrated all day. This cream is amazing. I could feel the hydration to my skin the second I put it on my face. It stays hydrated. I only used it for 2 days so far and I can see the result already. My face is brighter and more radiant. I love it! I am going to stock up on this.

This is one of the best moisturizers that I've used...and I've tried them all! There has been a noticeable difference in my skin...I do use all Shiseido products for skin care, so that may be why this product works so well for me. I use Benefiance Extra Creamy Cleansing Foam, Eudermine, Benefiance Concentrated Anti-Wrinkle Eye Cream, and this cream daily.

I love this product!!!! I'm currently on accutane so my skin is very dry and flaky. This product moisturizes my face very well and does not leave my skin feeling greasy.

Just So-So
-04.27.11
Quick Take: lightweight
I have thin Asian skin, eat spices and a lot of vegetables, and drink at least 6 cups of water a day.
I'd go for some other kind of skin brightening thing. I think serum works most effectively when it comes to skin brightening and you have to be on the regimen for a very long time. This just does a decent job. Not exceptional or poor.
Just remember to put on sunblock or else the skin brightening thing goes back to the same level you started with, or even darker...!

I like Shiseido White Lucent line !
-04.21.11
Quick Take: intensive, lightweight, absorbs quickly
I have a combination skin .I started using this line 1 month ago and i like it. I see a real brightening effect. I use a cleanser and a serum at night and a moisturiser/on the warm days i use an emulsion with spf 15 and a cream with spf 15 when it's cold outside/. I noticed from the second day that my face doesn't look that tired anymore and it's more vibrant and healthy. It is not white for sure, just much more healthier looking. I can even go without my foundation, just a stroke of bronzer. My friend also use this line and she noticed that her brown spots from sun damage look much lighter. She use only cleanser and a White Lucent spf 15 cream day and night.

Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly
I bought this product because I have some freckles on my cheekbones and like a moisturizer with SPF that I can use every morning. I am not sure how effective this is in terms of lightening dark spots (I have just started using it). I will say that while this is not the most moisturizing cream (others said it was too thick, but I found it to absorb really quick and not be very heavy at all), it definitely makes my skin glow and provides a good base for a tinted moisturizer. I would recommend this product, but not if you need an intensive moisturizer (so probably not good for people with dry skin).

bad product
-03.28.11
this is the worst cream with spf i have ever had. it doesnt moisturize AT ALL. and this cream even brings the dryness worse; it brings fine lines and dead skin on my face even more obviously that it only happened to me when i used super cheap cream in high school.
