THE CREATION
Developed by Gregoris Pyrpylis, Creative Director of Hermès Beauté, this nourishing foundation with a matte-glow finish offers the perfect balance between effective makeup, nourishing properties, and a natural result.
It evens out the skin and conceals imperfections in an instant. With its long-lasting wear of 16 hours* and medium, buildable coverage, the skin regains its radiant beauty. With repeated use, the skin is moisturized and regains its elasticity. Fine lines are visibly smoothed.
THE MAKEUP RESULT
Thanks to its matte, luminous finish and smooth texture, the foundation offers a natural makeup result that fits like a second skin. The complexion is free of imperfections and has a new radiance. The medium and buildable coverage allows you to even out and beautify the complexion without having to touch up throughout the day. The foundation is not affected by heat, humidity, or sweat. The color remains unchanged on the skin throughout the day.
THE SKINCARE EFFECT
Thanks to its formula with 82% skincare base**, this nourishing foundation with a matte, luminous finish provides immediately visible and long-lasting results.
It owes its moisturizing and revitalizing effect to a trio of active ingredients: These are nourishing, smoothing, and skin-quality-improving niacinamide, moisturizing pure hyaluronic acid, and a plumping and oxidative stress-protecting extract of the white mulberry tree (Morus alba L.), which also has an antioxidant effect.
In 100% of those surveyed, skin is better moisturized two hours after application.

THE FORMULA
This nourishing foundation is made from 71% natural ingredients. With its formula of effective and carefully selected ingredients, it beautifies and nourishes the skin. It is non-comedogenic, dermatologically tested, and suitable for all skin types, even sensitive skin.
THE COLOR
Gregoris Pyrpylis has developed a color palette that suits all skin tones. Each shade offers the perfect balance so that the foundation fits like a second skin. There are three different undertones—warm (W), cool (C), and neutral (N)—to make every skin tone glow.
How can you find out which undertone suits you?
- Warm (W): You have a rosy, apricot or copper skin tone.
- Cool (C): You have a golden, ochre or bronze skin tone.
- Neutral (N): You do not have a specific dominant skin tone.
THE GESTURE
The nourishing foundation with a matte-glow finish can be applied to the entire face with the Le perfecteur brush or with your fingertips. The coverage can be adjusted individually depending on the amount of foundation used to achieve a more natural or elegant result. The foundation can also be patted on to provide more coverage or to conceal specific skin imperfections.
The accessories for a tailor-made complexion accompany you in your daily beauty ritual and have been created to ensure hygienic, precise, and individual application of complexion products.
THE OBJECT
Crafted from precious materials, the bottle was designed by Pierre Hardy, the creator of Hermès Beauté's beauty objects. It combines round and angular elements and features a graphic, minimalist style. With its mix of frosted and transparent glass, it plays with perception. The black metal pump, engraved with the "Hermès Paris" signature, allows you to dispense exactly the right amount of foundation for one application. The black and white metal cap features a decorative element: the Hermès ex-libris in gold-colored Permabrass.* Self-assessment by 55 volunteer subjects.
