This foundation left my skin looking flawless – and it has 70% off

Perricone MD is a brand acclaimed for its range of skincare and make-up products. Garnering attention in the past due to glowing reviews by skincare expert Caroline Hirons, it recently made a strong comeback with the refurbishment of its ‘no makeup’ collection in 2019. The spotlight was notably brought onto its SPF20 serum foundation which promises a skin-like, weightless finish. The icing on the cake was the massive 71% discount on the product earlier this month which resurged the interest of skincare enthusiasts.

Perricone MD’s serum foundation, hitherto priced at £52, dropped to an enticing £15. For prospective buyers interested in taking advantage of this steal deal, this review aims to provide all essential information about the product – from its texture to its shade range. It would be wise to act immediately though, as offers this appealing are seldom long-lived.

How was the product tested?

The product testing was conducted keeping the concerns and preferences of an average make-up user in view. The application process involved spreading around two droppers of the liquid foundation on clean skin with the help of a blending brush. Subsequently, regular make-up routine was followed. There were a few critical parameters to evaluate the product – the immediate feel and consistency of the foundation, its behaviour as it stayed on the skin throughout the day, and its compatibility with different skin types, particularly oily skin, and other makeup products. Also, attention was paid to how the foundation looked on the skin, since aesthetics form an integral part of any makeup product’s evaluation.

Without casting any doubt, Perricone MD has done an excellent job with this foundation. In a world where make-up users are continuously chasing a natural, flawless look, this serum foundation comes as a boon. The light-weight formula effortlessly blends into the skin, emulating a second layer that doesn’t feel heavy or caked. This makes it an ideal product for those who prefer a minimalistic approach to makeup. Besides, with the SPF20 included, it also delivers on the skincare front, protecting the skin against sun damage.

This review of Perricone MD’s SPF20 serum foundation, however, would not be complete without a mention of its shade range. The brand has left no stone unturned to cater to different skin tones to ensure inclusivity. Moreover, the finish it imparts is flexible enough to pair well with bronzers and powders, thereby alleviating concerns associated with blending different make-up products.

While the foundation performed well on oily skin as well, a piece of advice for oily-skinned fellas would be to prime well and set the foundation with a powder. This helps keep the shine at bay for a longer time, and your look remains intact.

Considering these factors, Perricone MD’s SPF20 serum foundation can be labelled as a well-rounded product, offering great value for money, especially with the ongoing discount. Its array of benefits, combined with the brand’s proven reliability, makes it a worthy try for those looking to branch out their makeup collection or simply trying to find their ‘holy grail’ foundation.
