Yes I opened the outer package and the color was what not what I ordered. They refused a return because I opened the outer envelope Apparently this is not a proper business since I have never had someone refuse a return . The products themselves are unopened and sealed on original packaging. It’s absurd to think I would not open to be sure the… Read more
product was actually the wrong color.
I was willing to pay the return shipping and apparently they are falsifying the information they have told me. This is a scam and I will make sure that I write a review to warn others about this improper conduct in business.
Love this make up, covers up all my freckles, doesn’t sweat off gives me a glowing finish, can’t fault it! So good value for money! Been getting so many people onto this makeup Show details
The best makeup I have ever used – I was introduced to Phoera by a friend whose make-up I commented on. I am 50 and have acne scarring and oily skin. When I wear this make up at night I always get comments. When I wear this make up during the day I mix it with my moisturiser and use it as a tinted moisturiser. I always get comments. The make up feels comfortable, the colour matches my skin and best of all the price is cheap Show details

This is the first foundation that covers 95% off my dark pigmentation I'm happy that you phoera – Pigmentation covered without using a conceler stick not having the feel of heavy makeup Show details
Im 40 years old and i must say Phoera foundation is flawless, lasts all day.. my all time favourite foundation ❤️ – Perfect colour match, lasts all day and it doesn't look heavy or cakey Show details
Get Phoera Don't touch it! – The product ingredients are nothing like they advertise on their website. Full of parabens & chemicals. Customer service didn't want to know about it and they have 100% guarantee. Please avoid! Show details
Positive reviews
A surprise! – I usually don't fall for the advertising and expect disappointment. Anyway very pleased with the foundation-warm peach-a real run for my Estee Lauder- in fact trying to find fault. Coverage is amazing (62 yrs) And yes light but getting slightly darker samples to try-suggest only using small amount on brush to start-I went far too heavy to begin… Read more
until I realized a little goes a long way. I also mixed a little with Estee foundation so I don't waste it and clr corrects until I have the samples. The lipstick is a great shade too. Needs gloss with it or a bit dry-(cassie 08) I am fair so hope this review is helpful.
Ordering again – I can see that this isn’t a product for everyone, but I ordered 2 initially and I’m about to order again - probably 18 months after my original purchase. It does dry relatively quickly but I don’t find it too quick - I can spread the foundation over my face and sponge for any missed bits. Then it’s set for the day and I don’t think about it… Read more
again. I have mature skin but it still tends to be a bit oily, so the matte nature of the product actually works well for me.
Great product – Ordered 2 and these are amazing. It goes on well. It lasts all day. I'm very satisfied ☺️ I use a facial oil underneath which makes this product glide on better. People always complimenting my skin. Show details
Negative reviews
Not good – Am pretty disappointed with it. Thought id done the research, but clearly not! I purchased two colours , so i got the right colour match, which has worked. BUT- It makes me look 10 years older! It was marketed as to not sink into fine lines and for older skin. I look terrible after 30mins after application. I dont even have many lines as im a botox devote , but i tell you, this foundation found some ! Dont buy it. Show details
Worst foundation ever – Ok this foundation is absolute crap I'm 60 years old its way to oily it does sit in all the lines in your face making them look way worse my advice if your my age don't waste your money it's a total scam Show details
The opposite of what was advertised… – I purchased this foundation from the reviews. I now realise my mistake was going by the reviews on their site which in retrospect are unreliable. The foundation is like wearing a heavy mask on your face…there is no way I could wear this out in public as it would look like I had a mask on. Probably the worst experience I have ever had in ordering makeup on line. Show details

Too dry – I saw this foundation on FB - it said it was for more mature skin. After it arrived I was eager to try. At first, I thought “this is going to be too light” which it was. Then it drys so quickly, it is hard to apply evenly onto my face. I found it gluggy and patchy. So disappointed. Will not buy online again Show details
Not great for mature skin – Used this for the first time and purchased 2 colors. I have fair skin and have a slightly oily tzone- dryish the rest of my face. I found the foundation quite "gluey"- difficult to spread made very slightly better using a moist sponge. Would not recommend for 50+ Show details
Product never arrived and company won't provide proof of delivery or refund – Phoera won't provide me with a proof of delivery, in fact looking at the tracking details they never existed. So disappointed this company will no refund me for a product I never recieved. Terrible customer service.
Not suitable for mature skin – The colour is too light, but always hard to tell what colour will be best when buying online and unable to test the product first. I noticed on their Facebook marketing page whenever someone asks what colour would suit them best they are ALWAYS advised to buy 2 foundations in different shade and blend them. Sneaky marketing, but saw so many good… Read more
reviews from older women (in hindsight they're probably influencers getting free products to promote this stuff), I decided to give it a go andyway At NZ$47 per bottle buying 2 different shades that don't suit would prove to be an expensive mistake. On the plus side the coverage is good, but it sinks into my fine lines and wrinkles accentuating them, so I wouldn't say it is suitable for mature skin. I will stick to my dewy foundation. I also doubt very much that they are "cruelty free" as they are not listed on either Peta or Leaping Bunny as a cruelty-free brand, and cosmetics made in China are not cruelty-free. Also took almost 2 months to arrive.
Can't contact them!!!!! – I bought my first foundation 'buff beige' and really liked it. When I was running low, I ordered another one and put it in the cupboard until the first one had run out altogether. When I went to use it, I opened the box and realised they had sent me 'porcelain', far too light for my skin. I have tried twice to contact them, but the email just bounces back. How am I suppose to return this if I can contact them?????? Show details
not a fan – Colour matched well but looks flakey on my mature 54y skin. My 20yo loves it but in honesty was marketed for mature skin so leaving my opinion here.
Covers really well – I am 77 years old. Didn't expect it to take away wrinkles but I apply it with sponge straight after I have applied moisturiser. Only use a very small amount. It tones down all the age spots and marks on my face. No allergic reaction. Show details
Don't buy it. Dry as a chip – If you don't start spreading it on immediately it dries very quickly and you can't. Very very dry. Cakes into your skin. Awful stuff. I don't recommend. Show details
Love this foundation – Contrary to many other comments/reviews, I find this foundation great value for money as you only need a teeny tiny amount so it lasts ages. If you use too much, then it can go on too heavy. It takes trial and error to get the right coverage. It blends beautifully and there are great colours to choose from. I buy mine on Ebay as it is so much… Read more
cheaper than anywhere else. Delivery is reliable and fast. If I had any complaint, it would be the pump. It is hopeless, so I just unscrew the lid and use it that way.

Foundation? NO. Concealer? Big yes – I was given this product as a gift and I must say, as a foundation this product is awful. It’s thick, hard to blend and seeps into pores and creases. I started using this as a concealer instead and it’s actually fantastic. For this, the thickness is great. It’s covers blemishes very well. In small amounts, this is actually quite easy to blend and doesn’t look bad. It’s stays on quite well under my foundation too. Little bit goes a very long way. Show details
Rip off..beware US dollars used on bill but not in website – Rip offed. Doesn’t say it’s US dollars on website but it is on your bill Never buy product promoted on Facebook..crap product Show details
Never received it! DO NOT BUY! – I’d like to try it….shame it’s been sent twice since 8.7.22 but never reached me. Now they keep giving me COVID delay excuses yet it’s made it from China to Australia without a problem. Stuck somewhere with a local courier now but tracking not updated since 15.8.22! Refuse to refund as well, just keep telling me to wait! Show details
Don’t bother ordering this – I wish I read the reviews before I ordered, all good comments on fb seemed to good to be true , but a friend liked it so I thought OK will give it a go . I can’t comment on the actual product as I haven’t recieved it . As per tracking it is sitting somewhere in my town apparently, but it has sat there for the last 3 weeks . They just keep giving… Read more
Covid delay speel , and have stopped replying to my messages and emails . I will never buy off a fb ad again .
Product was poor and company didn't honour money back guarantee – The foundation did not stay on all day and it made my lines and wrinkles worse by seeping into them. When I provided this feedback to the company, they did not honour their money back guarantee. They said they didn't do returns on opened products but have a satisfaction money back guarantee. How can you assess if you are satisfied with a product without opening it? Show details
Never Ever again – I am so disappointed Firstly it is not advertised that the price of this product being sold in Australia is actually advertised in US dollars,I was fooled and felt violated. I immediately tried to cancel and was told I couldn’t that after 5 minutes my purchase was already on its way! Fooled again. Then I got the product it made my skin itchy and… Read more
went cakey! I emailed to get a refund but was told I needed to have kept the original packaging and not opened the product What a joke how else could I try it if I didn’t open the package. Never ever again. This company are thieves.
Perfect for me – Have been using this foundation for at east 6 months and it is the best I have used. For the mature women its perfect abd I can't understand the 2 star rating. I use a makeup set first then this foundation. I find it lasts till I was it off at night. As most foundation products I blend two colours for the perfect mach. The coverage of this product is better than any others I have used, including those rated 4 and 5 in reviews. Show details
Using foundation few yrs back.LOVED IT 57stopped using last couple wasn't hydrating dry skin – I was extremely satisfied with the foundation,I'm older now & skin is dryer so it's not suited for all types of skin,a dewy foundation would be Amazing if you made it
Possibly the best foundation Ive ever used! – Small bottle but worth it for the larger quality! Goes on much better with a primer underneath. Only a little gives me a smooth matt flawless finish. Doesn't sink into wrinkles, best ever &cIm intending to keep on using it Show details
