What It Is

Luminous Matte Skincare Foundation was conceived by Gregoris Pyrpylis, creative director of Hermès Beauty, to deliver the perfect balance of high-performance makeup, effective skin care and a natural look.

  • What It's For

    For all skin types.

  • What It Does

    The Makeup Result
    With its luminous matte finish and fluid texture, the foundation offers a natural makeup result that resembles a second skin. Imperfections are blurred and the complexion is radiant. The medium, buildable coverage with 16-hour* long-lasting hold evens out and enhances the complexion. The foundation resists heat, humidity and perspiration: once applied to the skin, the color remains true all through the day.

    Effective Skin Care
    Formulated with an 82% skincare base,** the foundation offers immediate and lasting results on the skin. Its moisturizing, revitalizing performance comes from a trio of active ingredients: niacinamide to nourish, smooth and improve skin quality, pure hyaluronic acid for moisturization and white mulberry extract to plump the skin while protecting it from oxidative stress. The non-comedogenic formula has been dermatologically tested to ensure its suitability for all skin types, including the more sensitive ones.

    The Object
    The bottle was designed by Pierre Hardy, creator of Hermès Beauty objects. Its graphic lines combine the circle and the square and are crafted in noble materials. The glass is partly frosted and partly transparent, playing with perceptions. The black metal pump delivers just the right amount for one application.

  • Finish

    Luminous matte.

  • Coverage Level

    Medium, buildable.

  • Shades

    Gregoris Pyrpylis has created a range of shades to suit all skin tones, gracing every complexion with a balanced result that looks and feels like a second skin. Three undertones are available, warm (W), cool (C) and neutral (N), to bring out the full radiance of each skin tone. Warm is for skin with a pink, apricot or copper tone. Cool is for skin with a golden, ocher or bronze tone. Neutral is for skin with no particular dominant tone.

  • How To Use It

    - To apply Luminous Matte Skincare Foundation to the face, use the Le Perfecteur Brush (sold separately) or the fingertips. The coverage can be adjusted by varying the amount applied, for results ranging from the most natural to the highly sophisticated.
    - A range of bespoke complexion tools (sold separately) has also been created to accompany your daily beauty routine and help you apply these complexion products in a manner that is hygienic, precise and tailored to your own requirements.

Looks natural

This foundation has a soft, fluid texture that feels very comfortable and weightless on the skin. It applies smoothly and gives a natural, radiant finish while gently evening out the complexion. It doesn’t feel heavy or mask-like, and it allows the skin to breathe while still looking polished. I reach for this foundation when I want a fresh, effortless look perfect for daytime wear, light makeup days, or when I want my skin to look smooth and naturally refined without full coverage. Gifted in exchange for my honest review.

Not my color but okay formula

I am being asked to write a review on 3 seperate shades that came, 2 of which do not match me. I will only review the one I am able to use, which I received complementary in a very tiny amount. I do like the little bit that worked for me.

I dont understand the assignment

This shade is too dark and im not understanding why the review is set up this way. I did receive this complementary, and I appreciate it, even if the other 2 shades don't work for me. This is something I'd like to try more of

Perfect coverage and lightweight

This is, honestly, one of the best foundation I’ve tried. The texture is silky smooth and applies and blends pretty smoothly with a brush, stays smooth all day long without being greasy or heavy on the skin. The skin-caring ingredients are wonderful and essential for any age to look your best. It provides medium coverage that blurs impressions and evens out skin tone for a flawless look. It’s an ideal everyday foundation that also helps firms skin and reduces fine lines. It doesn’t get caky over time, stays smooth throughout the day, and provides luminous natural matte finish. This would definitely be a staple in my beauty routine and I would highly recommend it. gifted by hermes

Such a lovely foundation!

I received this product gifted in exchange for my honest review. The Hermès Plein Air foundation feels silky and lightweight, and it blends quickly with fingers or a brush. It gives a soft-focus effect and a refined, natural finish that enhances rather than masks the skin. I’d use this for everyday wear or low-key events when I want something elegant, comfortable, and easy to apply.

Such a nice foundation!

Gifted in exchange for my honest review. This foundation has a smooth, comfortable texture that sits nicely on the skin and doesn’t feel cakey. The coverage is light to buildable and gives a fresh, healthy look rather than a full glam finish. I would use this when I want my skin to look like skin—great for daytime wear, brunch, or anytime I’m going for a simple, natural makeup routine.

Perfect foundation

Gifted by Hermes. The luminous matte finish strikes a beautiful balance: not flat or dull, but subtly radiant without excess shine. I love its long-lasting wear and comfortable feel, even in heat or humidity. While the price is undeniably premium, the quality of the formula, elegant packaging, and skincare benefits make it a worthwhile investment for those seeking foundation that looks natural and improves the skin with wear.
