"no makeup" makeup

as a makeup junkie, I love learning about new and unique brands and products. recently my boss was turned on to a brand that I had never heard of, Perricone MD, that specializes in what it calls, "no makeup" makeup. The concept sounded interesting enough, face makeup that perfects your skin without showing up on your skin. "Cake face" is one of my biggest pet peeves when it comes to makeup; if you can see visible product on your skin, then you're doing something wrong. But it was seeing the products in action that made me really take notice. She was wearing the No Foundation Foundation and the No Blush Blush, and there was not a trace of product on her face. Her skin looked flawless, healthy and with the perfect bit of dewiness. While I personally am not a face makeup person (a bit of matte bronzes to contour my cheekbones, and a touch of cream blush for some color is all I do for face), if I was this would totally be a brand that I would invest in. I did notice however, that all the products (foundation, blush, bronzed, mascara, and lipstick) only come in one or two tones- not sure if it's the type of product that adjusts to your specific tone, but if you're lighter or darker than a mid toned tan, this may not be the brand for you. hopefully they'll expand their shade line to be more inclusive of ALL skin tones and shades.


what are some of your favorite product for getting a flawless face? have you ever heard of Perricone MD?
