Face forward: the perfect foundation for women who hate wearing foundation

We don’t often write about cosmetics and skin products on Style, but we’ve been using Per-fékt’s skin perfection gel for years, having smuggled it in from the States until it was made available in Canada a few years ago, and we’re surprised that the product has remained fairly unknown.

It’s essentially a liquid foundation made from an ultra-light silicone formula that evens skin tone and fills in large pores and fine lines with basically no effort—it melts into the skin. For foundation and powder wearers, it can be used as a primer to create a smooth base, but women who prefer a more natural look can use it (in a clear or tinted formula) alone for a glowing mug. Both water and sweat resistant, the gel is fragrance-free and enriched with vitamins A and E.
