Physicians Formula Talc-Free Mineral Wear Illuminating Veil in Nude Glow Review

The email invite I got to have some cosmetic products of  Physicians Formula reviewed was time I heard of the brand.  When I did a search about it and read about the company profile, I learned that they have been in the cosmetic business for 70 years now.  The concept behind the brand started when doctor (Dr. Frank Crandall) who is an eminent allergist decided to create a fragrance free, PABA free,  and free of any of the 132 known skin irritants  cosmetics that his wife could use.  The rest was history.

The brush is not that soft as I’m used to with other cosmetic brush I had but since the product is recommended for very sensitive skin I’ll give it a spin PhotoGrid_1350360260213.jpg

What I think of it:

  • If you like the illuminated effect look on then this would be something you want to try. It’s like that glow powder from The Body Shop.
  • I love the non-chalky and natural finish of nude glow. It blended well with my skin and all you can see is the glow/illuminating effect.
  • If you have seen Edward Cullen in Twilight when he is hit by the sun, the effect is a bit like that it looks like you have glitters on your skin!
  • It is fragrance free and doesn’t cake.
  • The powder glides easily onto skin.
  • I love it! I think I’d wear this on a night out and not just on my face but my entire body. I can’t wait to see how the bronze glow would look like!
  • I love the easy and compact packaging that allows you to bring this on your purse anywhere without worrying about the mess!
Tip:  You can use the product on it’s own or on top of your regular foundation.  If to be used on it’s own it is recommended to use moisturizer first before applying.

Do I recommend this?
If you like glow/glitter effects on your makeup then this one is for you. Because of it’s compact packaging you can bring it anywhere with you and brush on an instant illuminating effect on your face and body!  This is perfect for Halloween!   I believe they have this in matte finish as well.

You can buy the product at Tameraonline.com at a special price of $14.00.  They accept Paypal payments and ships worldwide.

How about you, what do you think of illuminating effect makeup?

Stay gorgeous everyone!
