The Skin Perfecting Balm with Salicylic Acid is the latest launch from Mario Badescu, and it takes the form of a multi-use blurring balm that contains no silicones or powders. “This is the first silicone-free system that can truly replace silicone elastomers—you really have to feel it to believe it,” said Dr. Wei Chen, PhD, head of R&D at Mario Badescu. “Traditional silicone elastomer technology can clog pores, dry out skin and flake under makeup, and it can also accumulate in the environment over time. Our system is a game changer in cosmetics.”
This innovative jelly-balm formula is useful as an all-over, targeted and spot treatments, particularly when it comes to smoothing scars, texture and fine lines for a soft-focus finish.
