I’m notorious for buying foundation and not finishing it. I have never found one that I liked that much — and certainly not one I wanted to buy again. Until now. While buying some products at Lane Crawford a few months ago, I couldn’t help but pick up the a blue tube of perfekt skin gel which was sitting in a pile sitting next to the cashier — and in an impulse, I bought it (although at $450-ish a bottle, it was an impulse I thought I might regret). It was summer at the time and so I was full-in to my bronzer liquid (Dr Hauschka) which meant the tube sat, un-opened, on the shelf for a couple of months.
When I finally gave it a try, I instantly fell in love with it. It is light, moisturising, but still remains matte on the skin. It doesn’t smudge or rub off. The texture is unlike anything I’ve used before. I soon pumped the bottle dry.
Back at Lane Crawford for another fix, I found it had moved up in the “shelf-prominence” department — no longer an impulse buy but the “latest cult product”. In other words: Sold Out. If you see it, buy it. Then let me know it’s in stock.
