What happened at PERL HQ in September?
Cleansing balm trials are well underway 🧼
Our wonderful team of product testers have been trying out our brand new Balancing Cleansing Balm for the past few weeks and we're so excited to hear they've been loving it already!
Did you find the balm removed your make up?
- Yes!! It worked really well for everyday makeup and it worked on my creative makeup.
- Removed makeup perfectly I was really pleased
- Yes! It did great at removing foundation - I wear a mix between light and medium coverage and always double cleanse. It also worked well for mascara!
Did you like using the balm?
- Loved it! Absolutely love how it makes my skin feels
- Yes I did, it felt lovely on my skin. No strong perfumes, which I like. My skin felt clean and nourished.
- I loved using this cleansing balm, by far one of the best ones I have tried!
How does the balm compare to your current balm or preferred make up removing product?
- I currently use tropic smoothing cleanser and I definitely prefer this cleansing balm as it doesn’t leave an oily residue on my face and makes my skin feel really lovely the next day
- It’s very similar in texture for the erborian balm but I prefer the scent of your balm and I found it easier to remove? Was a nicer experience. Must better then MUA cosmetics, elemis, beauty bay balms.
- It felt more gentle on the skin and removed makeup a lot quicker. In the past, I used standard remover with a cotton pad, and it would take at least two goes.
Did it sting your eyes?
- No no not at all
- The cleansing balm did not sting my eyes at all when removing mascara or eyelash glue residue on my lashes
Did it remove makeup easily?
- Yes, melted the makeup away very easily.
- Yes. All my make up was removed with one use.
Did it leave you feeling greasy?
- No, skin felt refreshed after use.
- No it didn't, but I always double cleanse and I'm prone to breakouts
As our trials finish up we're refining the final formula and working on the packaging while we get ready to launch in late October/ early November. Join our waitlist to be first to hear when we're launching!
We hosted our first ever summer party! 🎯
A year ago my dream was to have a team to work with at PERL HQ… Now I have a team of 10 with 5 of them being office based and 5 remote
It still feels weird I can have a work summer party & not be the only one turning up - I took the team to Fair Game to test how well we really get on as a team & it was so much fun 🤭
We hosted a vision boarding event! 💖
September is back to school season, and while we've long left education it's still the perfect time to think about setting goals and planning what you want to achieve before the end of the year!
We partnered with the lovely Georgia from Smoothie London to host the event. Isobel and Georgia held a founder panel talk with Lindsey from Goal Digger Coaching. The event was such a space of positivity with some wonderful conversations had and connections made.
One of our guests even told the craziest story - check it out here!
Isobel also created her own vision board 😍
Setting out my goals is one of my favourite things to do, so here's what I want to achieve before the end of 2024:
I'm planning to launch our new Cleansing Balm and a Lip Oil later this year
I'm going to be bringing out new packaging (scroll down for a sneak peek!)
And I'd love to get PERL into retail stores!
For personal goals I'm training to run a half marathon and of course I want to travel more and even treat myself to a cheeky new pink bag!
Isobel attended two business events 📸
I spoke on a TikTok panel to share how TikTok Shop and GS1 have helped PERL! GS1 are a super helpful service who support by producing barcodes which enable businesses without retail packaging to sell online.
Later in the month she had the pleasure of attending the Adobe Summit, which was all about Adobe Express and how it can be used to create posts and edit photos!
Product packaging is in the works... 🎁
PERL will soon have new packaging! Our sets currently come in boxes but we're updating these to some incredible new designs and also developing packaging for our other products too!
Here's a sneak peek but keep your eyes out for the final versions!
What's coming up in October?
Our Balancing Cleansing Balm will soon be launching, sign up here to join the waitlist! ✨
