What I Say:
So these new Powder
Palette Multi-Coloured Custom Blushes have been designed specifically to
compliment your hair colour, whether you have blonde or brunette hair, as they
will enhance your skin tone and play up your hair colour.
Both of the blushes have a beautiful hexagon design pattern that
features both warm and cool pearlescent colours that give your skin a radiant
finish and will highlight your cheekbones. At first glance the two blushes look
quite similar, but at closer look you will notice that the shade designed for
blondes have more cool tones in the mix, while the shade for brunettes features
more warm and golden shades.
I’ve tried both of the shades, and with brunette hair, the shade for
brunettes should consequently suit my skin better. I tend to agree, and that it
also does give my skin some more warmth, but in saying that, I also didn’t mind
the lighter shade for blondes, possibly because it is in the middle of winter
here now, and my skin consequently is quite pale.
The actual powder is light I consistency, and it does wear quite well
during the day, without fading or making my skin shine. And although it does
have a pearlescent sheen, it merely gives the skin nice glow without being over
the top.
Physicians Formula also mentions that you can use the blushes both dry
and wet – dry with a brush, and wet with a damp sponge for a more defined and
dramatic look. Personally I found that I got plenty of definition and colour by
using it dry with a brush, so I have to admit to not having tried to use it
wet!
At first the blushes go on quite sheer, but it is easy to build up the
colour, so you do have to be cautious not applying too much – and especially if
you use enclosed brush..
The blushes come in bright pink and very girly packaging, that has a
hidden compartment that houses a brush, as well as it has a mirror, and both
are great for any touch ups on the go during the day. However, as I believe to
have mentioned in previous Physicians Formula reviews, I do find their brushes
a little stiff, and that they quickly ‘scratch up’ the powder, and you
consequently lose a bit of powder with each use, as well as I find that it is
more difficult to blend the blush and you apply too much by mistake. So I
therefore prefer to use the blushes with my own softer blush brushes, but on
the other hand if you haven’t got a suitable brush, or do like to be able to
apply the blush when you’re on the go, then you cannot complain about it being
included..
Overall, these are lovely blushes, and I’m surprised to admit that it
really does make a difference which shade you use. So if you are after your
perfect blush shade, Physicians Formula has basically taken all the guesswork
out for you to ensure you pick the right shade. How brilliant is that!
