MORE PHYSICIANS FORMULA 2015 PRODUCTS

Happy Monday all,

Today I have another post on a couple more products from the new 2015 Physicians Formula products. These ones I did purchase myself as my local Shoppers Drug Mart had them on for 40% off. 


Lets take a look


CITY GLOW DAILY DEFENSE BRONZER (PARIS)
AVAILABLE IN NEW YORK AS WELL 11G FOR $19.99

The daily defense bronzers were designed with skin protection in mind. This formula is a multi-tasking bronzer that defends against environmental aggressors while giving you the healthy look of a tan. 
This advance formula will help neutralize the skin stressing effects of city smog and pollution. The environment can cause havoc to the skin leaving it wrinkled, dull, fatigued and making the skin tone seem uneven.

This bronzer is a weightless bi-colored bronzer that does have a gold over spray to accentuate the picture of either the Paris or New York sky line. There is a gentle shimmer throughout this bronzer that will only make the skin seem to glow, not look like a light bulb.

I am not sure if one bronzer is darker then the other because they are only named New York & Paris, but I do imagine there is a mild difference. I do find Paris to be fairly warm when applied to the skin.

Also the packaging on this particular product is very sleek and looks very high-end. It has the black rubberized feel to it like the Nars products. I would love to see Physicians Formula do more packaging similar to this.



SHIMMER STRIPS EXTREME SHIMMER PALETTE (NUDE)
ALSO AVAILABLE  IN SMOKY 3.4G $15.99


The new shimmer strips extreme shimmer palette is just that very very shimmery. I have mixed emotions about this product because it is super beautiful and the colours are quite pigmented especially the darker shades. However I am not sure its practical for my everyday use. What I do really like is that even though they are quite shimmery the texture of the shadows is really lovely and do apply nicely.

Applied directly to skin

Applied over eyeshadow primer

This is the type of shadow you want to pack on and less dragging the brush.

The extreme shimmer strip can be used wet or dry depending how intense you want your look to be. It claims to last for 24hrs, but I can't back the claim as I never need to wear makeup that long. When I did wear it the other day it did stay in place for the 4 hours it was on my eyes. You will have some fall out naturally because this is a very shimmery product.


Both products are 
-Hypoallergenic
-Fragrance free
-Paraben free
-Gluten Free
-oil free
-non-comedogenic
-dermatologist approved
*shimmer strips is safe for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers


If you have a lot of eye shadow in your collection then I think the shimmer strip is not a must buy, but if your looking for big time shadow drama then this is an excellent choice. However everyone can use a good bronzer and this is a nice product with several face saving benefits so I do recommend this one and its so nice to look at.

THANKS TO ALL WHO STOP BY FOR A READ AND HAVE A GREAT DAY

HAPPY FAMILY DAY :)

PHYSICIANS FORMULA

NEW Physicians Formula shimmer strips nude palette

So in my last Physicians Formula post I mentioned I would be show casing one item on it's own and that would be today. We are going to take a good look at the stunning NEW shimmer strips all-in-1 custom nude palette for face & eyes.

First off this palette is versatile in the sense that it can be used several ways which are eyeshadow, eyeliner, bronzer, blush, or highlighter.
The main reason I bought this is to use as an eyeshadow palette.

Before I go any further lets look at some pics of this beauty

This set comes with a face brush and a small shadow applicator, really only good if your in a pinch or travelling, in the back compartment is also a good quality mirror and full instructions on how to use this product on your face or eyes.

All the colours in this palette are shimmer and absolutely amazing. I am so impressed, as in previous times I have read mixed reviews about the older shimmer strips, but it seems the formula has ultimately improved. The formula is buttery, little to no kick back of dustiness and the colour payoff from one swipe as you see above is fantastic.

Just a side note, this time around the lace overlay you see on the package is printed and not a material as I have seen with some of PF's products, as in their sexy booster line, or the older rectangle shimmer strip palette.

I feel this is definitely a sound investment if your looking for a good quality nude palette and don't mind shimmer shadow. It also will leave the most fantastic highlight if you mix all the colours together. I really wanted to post an eye and face look using this palette, but a lot has been going on and I am sick and have been for a while. So bare with me I will do a look and update this post. You can also check out my Instagram as well which you can see my photo feed by clicking on the tab up top.

This palette also offers the goodness of being hypoallergenic, paraben free, gluten free, non-comedogenic and dermatologist approved.

There are two shade options which are Natural nude, that looked to light all around for my liking, or the one I showed today which is warm nude.

You get 7.5g of product, it retails here in Canada for about $20. Physicians Formula often offers great promo's between 30-40% off, just keep an eye on your local flyers for Shoppers Drug Mart, Rexall, as well as Walmart Canada.
