Hellos!
Today I am going to review an HD foundation from a brand called “HERA”. “HERA” is a flagship brand under AmorePacific in
Korea. To know more about HERA click

I
decided to try Hera’s HD fix
foundation as I’ve seen great reviews on it and I am also in a lookout
for a nice foundation that doesn’t give ghastly white cast.
Hera
HD Fix Foundation SPF15 PA+ in Pink
Beige P21 Price
50,000KRW (USD50)
What it
claims:
- High definition foundation
that stays on skin for 12 hours long
- Able to improve coverage
and even out skintone
- Minimizes darkening and
maintain skin brightness
- Dermatologist tested
My
thoughts after using:
1)
Consistency – In between a
cream and lotion; feels really light and non-sticky
2)
Shades – available in
4 shades (Light Beige, Pink Beige, Natural Beige and True Beige)
3)
Packaging – sturdy and
classic acrylic bottle with pump
4)
Oil Control – pretty good as
I never experience oiliness for straight 8 hours
5)
Coverage – Low to medium;
tends to minimize redness and even skin out; instant boost on skin brightness
6)
Scent – floral scent
but would go away in a few minutes
7)
Application- managed to blend well on skin and easy
to buff or spread on skin
8)
Lasting Power –
it
claims to last for 12 hours but haven’t stayed that long so cannot comment; but
the foundation was still pretty intact for 10 hours straight on my face
9)
Suitability – Did NOT
encounter any discomfort for a sensitive skin like me
10)Availability – easily
reachable in quite a few online shops
What I like
about:
- Air light feeling
foundation; close to nothing
- High in oil control yet
does NOT accentuate dry spots
- Will NOT look cakey or crease/sets
in fine lines
- Able to brighten up skin
tone instantly
- Gives a smooth matte finish
and non-transferable
What I hate
about:
- Coverage is pretty low and
not buildable
- Expensive as it was priced
at USD50
Overall
Conclusion:
I
love this foundation, because among all other foundation I have tried; this has
the lightest feeling. Yes, it feels even lighter than my Shu-Uemura’s
face architect foundation. Even
though the coverage was pretty low, but it still managed to conceal pigmentation
and even out skintone well enough.
Comparison with
Shu-Uemura’s face architect in 774 Light Beige

in Bare Face and With Hera Foundation Portrait:
Recommendation:
Even
though I love this, but I would NOT buy again as I prefer a higher
coverage since I have lots of imperfection to conceal. But this is great for
everyday wear as it feels light and gives radiance to skin. This foundation
is more suitable to those with less imperfection and is aiming for a
much brighter skin finish.
