Perfekt Liquid Foundation

This is another one of those silicone-based, foundation/primer combination makeups that became quite popular in 2008. With these all-in-one products, the foundation provides color while the silicones make the skin look matte and pore-free. But as with Armani’s Face Fabric, this foundation won’t cover significant skin discolorations.

The Skin Perfection Gel is worth a look if any of the other foundations of this kind caused breakouts. But be careful. This formulation contains isododecane, a known skin irritant, as it’s first ingredient. Test it behind the ear for awhile to see what kind of reaction your skin has to it before smearing it on your entire face. There’s a “To-Go” version for $17.50 if you want to give it a try without the investment.

This product comes in a nice range of shades including Translucent, Luminous and Radiant for fair skin; Rich for olive or darker skin; and Decadent, a mohagany brown for dark skin.

Ingredients: Isododecane, Polysilicone – 11, Dimethicone, Retinyl Palmitate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Montmorillonite, Thioctic Acid, Titanium Dioxide CI 77891, Iron Oxides CI 77499, CI 77492, CI 77491.

Cost: $57.50
