Monday~ Physicians Formula Review

Physicians Formula BB Cream, Powder, & Concealer.

Physicians Formula is top middle, 2 eyeliners and a mascara in silver packaging.


Physicians Formula BB Cream products, a bronzer (pink package)and Mineral Face Powder.





I've had nothing but great experience with most Physicians Formula product(s). I've purchased them from: Target, Burlington Coat Factory, & Ross.

By far my favorite is the BB Cream Products (Light/Medium), though I don't use the Concealer very often. The cream itself is the best BB Cream I've ever used.(I don't use foundation, ever.) The packaging has around 11 claims, which is a lot, but for me it met most of them.  I really notice a skin improvement when I use it, and it has the right amount of coverage, moisture, etc for me. I set this with the BB Powder, and as you can see in the above pictures I've hit pan on the powder, and plan to repurchase. I also use the powder alone, on days I'm not going anywhere, or don't really want to wear much makeup. ( I am naturally reddish on my cheeks and like to cover that.)

The eyeliners are Shimmer Eyes, Custom Eye Enhancing Eyeliner, Kohl Kajal Eyeliner Trio. I got two (black & brown) with purchase of the Happy Booster, Glow & Mood Boosting Baked Bronzer (Light). I love the black eyeliner, it glides on smooth and stays all day. The brown isn't as noticeable, and doesn't wear as long.  If these were available separately I'd repurchase the black.  The black is only 1/4 gone (since September), so I have plenty of use left.

The mascara, Organic Wear CC Mascara in Ultra Black is nice, it's not my favorite mascara, but is great for sensitive eyes and is somewhat build-able. The wand is very stiff and only brings out a minimum amount of product, and even in Ultra Black it doesn't seem that dark. I like it because generally mascara makes my eyes itch after a few hours, and I don't get that issue with this product. It does assist in the curling of my lashes, but not dramatically. I love that it's for sensitive eyes but probably wouldn't repurchase, because I like a thicker (NOT MANGA) & dark mascara.

The bronzer (linked above) is a great color for me ( It works well over my natural redness). It has a nice glow, but no "mood boosting" which is a silly claim anyhow. It does have a bit of shimmer to it, so if you prefer matte finish this isn't for you. I would most likely repurchase this same product, or (since it's almost Summer) in a shade darker.

Lastly the 3K Mineral Wear, Mineral Face Powder in Translucent is ok, I use it to define certain areas (lips, nose, etc). It doesn't have much coverage (I've noticed as a general rule most mineral products don't.) For me it's not enough (coverage) to wear as a face powder, and I have other products that do it's job much better. I wouldn't repurchase this either.

  All opinions are my own, this is not a sponsored post, I personally purchased all these products.

What works for me may not work for you, and vise-versa. I urge you to read reviews, especially from people who have a similar skin type/issue as you, do your research and make an informed decision.

Have a great day!
