Reviews

Amazing Product!

"I have been using Perfectionist for over a year now. O use it on the nights I use my retinal. It has helped so much in alleviating the dry skin that comes with using it. I won't be without it!"

— Jackie B. (5/5)

Obsessed!

"This product makes a huge difference in my routine. I can now tolerate prescription strength retinol."

— Kelsey R. (5/5)

65 and my favorite product

"Refreshes my skin tone and makes me my face look dewy and younger."

— Pam C. (5/5)

Extra moisture

"I love adding these drops to my face moisturizer for that extra moisture. My face loves this combo!"

— Kellie (5/5)

Perfectionist is Perfection

"It truly is the perfect addition to dermaplaining out there! No more “razor burn” or rashes/bumps/unnecessary nicks because your (Barefaced) dermaplainer glides so smoothly over it. PLUS, it’s super hydrating- so an extra bonus. And in the winter, I’ll add a small drop to my moisturizer for even more moisture when my skin is feeling really dry! I love this little bottle of perfection."

— Aubrey A. (5/5)

Gamechanger for dermaplaning

"I wasn’t sure how I would like this product because I already have oily skin. However, I tried it for dermaplaning and wish I’d gotten it sooner. It’s very lightweight and effective!"

— Alissa S. (5/5)

Love this stuff!

"This stuff has truly changed my skin. I haven’t been using to shave my face but instead using it to add additional moisture to my face and I love it. I’ve found that the tinted moisturizer makes my skins. Bit dry but with the oil it leaves a perfect level of moisture. It’s my favorite product I’ve already ordered two more bottles!"

— Alexandra L. (5/5)

Pleasantly surprised

"Never thought I would love an oil but once again BF has done it. I use this oil with my moisturizer every other day to keep my dry sensitive skin in check."

— Pamela M. (5/5)

The Perfect Oil

"This product is amazing at locking in hydration! A recent addition for me and now I don't think I could live without! Run, don't walk to grab this!"

— Meredith H. (5/5)

Multipurpose product

"I first bought this product to use when shaving. I loved it because I found dry shaving to be too irritating on my skin. I recently moved to upstate NY and have started using this on top of my moisturizer at night to really lock it all in. It has helped tremendously in keeping my skin soft during the cold winter."

— Kat O. (5/5)
