[Review] Holika Holika Hard Cover Glow Stick Foundation

This is my most anticipated base makeup release from Holika Holika particularly because I purchased the Holika Holika Hard Cover Glow Peko Edition Cushion and wore it ever single day


Features
A refreshing and cooling foundation stick that provides moisture and cools the skin immediately.
Highly moisturizing essential serum ingredients help expresses clear and dewy glow coverage.
The powerful coverage, delicate glow, and fresh finish keep the skin moist and clean without darkening.



The packaging is remarkable. Its well made and has this luxurious rose gold accent which adds class to this stick foundation.
This has a twist up mechanism to roll the product up something that is characteristic of all stick products. This holds 12gm of product. It comes with SPF50+ PA++++ 



This comes in three shades 01 warm ivory , 03 sand ivory and 04 honey . I dont know why they skipped shade 02 and jumped to shade 03 but over all there isn't a massive difference in the shade range



This foundation has that same Hard Cover Glow Peko Edition Cushion scent ( it is floral and feminine ) I chose this in shade 01 warm ivory . It is a bright light Beige very yellow toned. The shade initially looks a tad bit light on my skin (partially because its spring and my skin looks slightly tan ) but after blending it with a puff, It looks a nice match for my skin.
Now onto the part that knocked my socks off '' The Glow '' . This gives my skin that lit from within glow. The first time I used it , I skipped primer and sunscreen (gasps in horror )


I was amazed how easily this blended into the skin due to its super creamy nature. It didn't accentuate any dry patches. Nor did it exacerbate the fine lines on my face.


 On day 1: I just wore this on its own, no primer, no powder and my skin looked its absolute best. It covered all the breakouts on my cheeks so well. After 4 hrs my T zone looked slightly oily but the foundation still looked seemless and smooth. By 6 hrs marks I had to blot my T zone with a blotting paper to keep the shine down. I didn't felt the need to reapply during the day



On day 2: I applied powder on top ( just my T zone) and really loved how it my sebum stayed under control

On day 3: I used this in conjunction with my sunscreen, primer and powder and I had a  great makeup day. Though the multiple layers did cause a bit of creasing under my eyes and around my nose. But still I liked it


Compared to the Holika Holika Hard Cover Glow Cushion , The Stick version provides more coverage. It also more long lasting.

Overall this really lives up to its name. It glowy and works for all skin types. My only problem with this stick foundation is that in warm weather. Its becomes too soft and starts melting . So its best to store it in a dry cold place. I plan to keep this in my fridge when summer arrives
