Per-fekt Beauty Skin Perfection Gel is an interesting product. It basically is a tinted primer, making it perfect for a sheer smooth look or as a base for makeup. But it also adds Alpha Lipoic Acid and Vitamins A and E for anti-aging properties. I am rather in love with the stuff!
As a primer, it works beautifully. It fills fine lines and smoothes the skin, leaving a nice base for powder or makeup. With a sheer tint (a transparent version is also available), it can also be worn alone. Since I have melasma and like to try to cover up the areas of pigmentation, I use it as a primer. I find that it adds just what I need to ensure that hyperpigmentation gets nicely covered with makeup. It works great as a base for mineral makeup too!I found that my mineral makeup lasted most of the day when I used per-fekt as a primer for it.
As an anti-aging treatment, I don’t know that I have noticed much difference, but I like the addition of Alpha Lipoic Acid. It also is slightly moisturizing, which worked well for me, even though I have been on the oily side lately. With that said, if you are really oily. I suggest using a mattifying primer instead such as Exuviance Matte Perfection (read review).
Per-fekt is a bit pricy in the full size version, but there is also a small tube of it that retails for less: Per-fekt Beauty Skin Perfection Mini Gel.
