I bought this MUMUSO Purple Perilla lotion on sale. It was sitting there on the till with a 40 or 50% off sign. I read calming. So I got it. But since it was on sale, it also meant my expectations weren’t exactly standing at attention. But my skin surprised me. It worked beautifully. No reactions whatsoever. No problems with the scent either, which matters to me because fragrance and I do not always have the most peaceful relationship. It simply became something I could use without thinking too much about it. And perhaps that’s an underrated quality in skincare. Not everything needs to transform your life, arrive with twelve actives and demand its own complicated ritual. Sometimes you just want to put lotion on your skin and have your skin say: Fine by me. Apparently mine said that often enough that I finished the bottle. Not bad for something I added last minute because it was on sale. —- With elegance and quiet fire, Lady E Founder, Glow by Lady E An editor...
