I have found that application is the key. For a more sheer coverage I would apply it with a mu sponge. I've never tried a foundation brush. I, personally apply it with my hands. It's like hair dye to me...I never use the gloves b/c if I do how will I really know I've covered every strand evenly? (I just make sure to take care of my nails w/ a clear coat of nailpolish and some vaseline before applying.) I'll either put one coat of Shiseido w/ my Dream Matte mouse or 2 coats of Shiseido alone.
Also, I love the creamy texture of the Shiseido foundation. It also comes in a liquid form, which I have....but haven't used since I opened up my cream.
There was an article in August's Allure on how to properly apply some mu's to "seal the deal" - make it long lasting. It has really helped.
I hope this answers your question.
