Hera Foundation

Hera Precious Foundation Liquid (30ml)
color: #21





















This was delivered to me wrongly instead of the hera precious base. CS from Gmarket told me the seller promised to refund my money without to return it. Refund is still pending. Now I ended up with two Hera foundation in the same color #21. There are three shades available to choose. the picture on the listing doesn't really show the real color though. I tried it out anyway.

I have fair to medium asian complexion with yellow undertones. This blends beautifully into my skin.



The other things I like about this is it gives the right amount of coverage i want (sheer to medium) and the formula is quite light. It doesn't feel heavy on my face. It gives you a dewy finish. One pump is enough for my entire face. I don't have to use finishing powder after this. This is quite satisfied to use it daily especially when i don't have much time to do makeup in the morning. it does contains fragrance. it smells pleasant. the only thing i don't like is the color is a bit too yellow to my skin.



Hera HD Moist Foundation SPF15 PA++ (30ml)
color: #21



















This HD Foundation has a slightly different color than the one above. it has a more pinkish tone. It matches me so much. This does a good job of moisturizing. I do prefer this for my dry skin.


I usually wear Shiseido Maquillage Lasting Liquid Foundation UV in OC 00, Nars Sheer Foundation in Celyan, and Make Up For Ever HD Foundation in 118 (for a darker choice).

1st time Online Shopping @ Gmarket

I love love love to shop @ Gmarket so much!!


Ok, my first Gmarket haul is Korean Cosmetics and Skin Care.
I was looking for this Hera Precious Base online @ ebay. Some sellers have this for sale around US$40-48 which is quite expensive to me.

This product was introduced by 2 blogger from Taiwan.

I can't wait to try it.. so I was searching for it on google, ebay, and some other website that sell Korean brand cosmetics and can ship to US! u know what, there was no hope except ebay with much higher price.

one day, i was reading Lotus Palace Blog, and she has a great Gmarket tutorial @ her blog!! it is a step by step tutorial with pictures and descriptions. I was able to place my first order without any trouble. Lucky, I have a paypal account and this really express the checkout process.

Thx so much to Lotus Palace Blog! you can check it out!

I placed my order on 05/17/2010 (Monday) and guess what I received the package on 05/22/2010. It was a Saturday. What a surprise! I was expecting it the following week and it arrived much earlier that I expected. Yeah!

There was two small packages inside the EMS box. I also ordered other things along with the hera base.

Here what i received:


  1. Hera Precious foundation in #21
  2. NEW Hera HD foundation moist in #21
  3. Hera Sun Mate Daily SPF35 PA++ (70ml) x 2
  4. Hera Precious Powder in #1 Refill 
  5. Laneige Water Sleeping Pack EX 80ml 


where is my HERA PRECIOUS BASE???????
I logged in my Gmarket account to check if i ordered the wrong product. the answer is no. I did ordered the HERA PRECIOUS BASE. I am 100% sure because the is the only product that I don't have to pick color.

i sent a couple emails regarding of this to the CS(customer service). they have quick response and was able to solve the problem for me with the seller which a refund will be issue back to my account. Refund is still pending.

With zero knowledge in Korean, my first order @ Gmarket was quite successful. however, a big disappointment was my most wanted item is not here. kinda sucks!!

#1-#3 were ordered from this seller 모모momo
#4-#5 were from 뷰티사랑 


my 2nd Gmarket haul is coming!
