Jumping on the Korean dewy skin band­wagon, Dior has introduced a new version of its iconic product – Forever Skin Glow (HK$470/30ml). Launched last month, the foundation has received five-star reviews for its highly moisturising and weightless qualities.

Shu Uemura’s Unlimited Foundation (HK$400/35ml) caters for the subtle differences in Asian skin tones, which also makes it difficult to find the right colour match. Make sure you try the product in-store before buying it.

Blending flawlessly into the skin, Guerlain’s L’Essentiel Natural Glow Foundation (HK490/30ml) is for those who want a natural finish. The formula goes on sheer without becoming blotchy or heavy even with additional layers.

For a matt finish, try Hourglass’ Vanish Seamless Finish Liquid Foundation (HK$500/25ml). Despite being in liquid form, the coverage rivals the brand’s bestselling foundation stick, hiding any redness and blemishes. Oily areas would require a bit of powder, but make sure you keep it light to prevent it looking cakey.
