BH Cosmetics BH Studio Pro HD Foundation Review Acne Skin

Hello!

Today I am going to review a new foundation by BH Cosmetics, BH Studio Pro HD Foundation. I was hesitating to try this foundation at first since I have a very sensitive and acne-prone skin, Also this foundation is still new so the lack of reviews and stuff made me feel that way. I have searched and watched a few videos on Youtube and they aren't that many either. However I decided to try this despite the lack of testimony. I was just telling myself that I could be one of the early reviewers. lol.

So here it is!

I bought them on BH Cosmetics website for USD 8 (approximately RM40 without postage), postage to US is around USD 7.99 for item below USD 50 and postage to Malaysia is a flat rate of USD 29.99 regardless of the item price. I had a hard time to choose my own shade even though there are only 8 shades available on the website. My MAC shades are NC25 to NC35 depending on the product, for example my pressed powder from MAC is NC25 whereby my foundation is usually NC35.  So after a few times contemplating to choose a shade that 's going to fit me,  I chose shade 101 for myself. My item reached me 3 weeks later.


The packaging

It came in a black flimsy box and plastic bottle with a pump, thank goodness. It's convenient and hygenic. The weight isn't heavy but I have a problem with the pump. It's very hard to get the product out of the pump and I had to keep on pumping A LOT in order to get it to the back of my hand. I am not sure if I got a bad batch or not. 


The Product

The product contains 32ml or 1.08 fl.oz so they are 2 ml more than any of the foundation that I came across. Usually there's always only 30 ml or lesser in a bottle so yes another thumbs up! The product is formulated in Germany and is made in USA. The foundation could last until 12 months.

The texture of the product is thick, though not thicker than my Estee Lauder Double Wear but pretty decent for people who need to wear medium to full coverage foundation. The foundation is buildable although I found out that one layer is enough to cover my redness and acne scars.


Verdict on BH Studio Pro HD Foundation

I am loving the product so far! It totally covers my imperfection and stuff but I had one big problem with this foundation- it oxidizes so badly until I look like I have a bruised face. I cant even contour my face due to this. I know I'll end up looking so red and so bruised and yes, sadly I had to order another shade, 104 and let's see how it is going to turn out on my skin.



  • Pros:

  • Inexpensive.
  • Medium to full coverage.
  • Covers all my redness and my scars.
  • Fill the pore nicely without any primer and compact powder.
  • Suitable for oily and sensitive skin.
  • I didn't break out at all.
  • No smell.
  • Creates flawless matte finish.
  • 12 Months of shelf life.

Cons:


  • Staying power (tried 8 hours, need to reapply)
  • Hard to find your true shade as they only retails online.
  • Oxidizes pretty fast, you will have to buy one or two shade lighter than your own shade.

I totally recommend this to people who suffer acne and acne scars like me. I bought this because I wanted to try a foundation that's inexpensive with a full coverage and I am very surprised with it, though not with the oxidizing formula.
