# Best Shiseido Future Solution LX products, step by step Source: https://serumandjar.com/best/best-shiseido-future-solution-lx Publisher: Serum & Jar. Picks are chosen from what each Amazon listing states, not from hands-on tests. Method: https://serumandjar.com/how-we-pick Shiseido builds its routines on six steps: cleanse, soften, strengthen, treat, moisturize, protect. Future Solution LX is its top line, and the Amazon listings cover most of it: a serum, a night cream, a day cream with SPF 30, the Legendary Enmei cream, an eye and lip cream, and a ritual set with cleanser and softener. A standalone softener is not among the listings available here, so the Restorative Ritual set is the way to get it. The 50 ml products state their size, which makes price per ml easy to compare: from about $5.52 per ml for the SPF 30 refill to about $9.50 for Enmei. This guide lists each product in the order most buyers should consider it, with its routine step, the ingredients Shiseido names and its directions for morning or evening. ## Picks ### 1.
