Physicians Formula Powder Palette Mineral Glow Pearls, Hypoallergenic Face Powder, Silky Smooth & Radiant Finish – Translucent Pearl

I'm snuggling up to 40 and my skin was looking dull and a bit sad after a long dark winter. I was looking for a powder with a bit of magic (ok shimmer) that I could apply quickly to my bare face to look a bit more alive, or put over my foundation for an even more finished but awake look. I watched 101 videos online and read lots of reviews and actually ordered the Hourglass powder with one of my Sephora hauls. I tried it about 5x and every single time I died a bit inside... I couldn't see ANY difference, not a tiny speck of a difference. I wanted it to work so badly but ended up returning it. I've used Physicians Formula products in the past (they are one of the few drugstore brands I really like) so I next tried a gorgeous palette of theirs I saw in the store "multicolored custom bombshell bronzer" I about died again when I tested it at home, my entire face was COVERED in very noticeable silver glitter, I was looking for something that made a difference, but not that big of a difference! I wanted something that gave my face a bit of life and this was like a fairy dusted my face in a very bad way.I almost gave up but saw some references to this powder online. I figured I'd give finding my holy grail product one more chance and ordered it. I tested it as soon as it arrived and WOOHOO, exactly what I was looking for. I purchased it in Beige Pearl and it gives just the right amount of light reflecting soft shimmer but no glitter. It pretty much disappears on my face whether I'm bare faced or have on foundation/blush in that it's not a noticeable color, it just makes my face look brighter and me more awake/lively! I'm considering purchasing one of the darker colors to see if it gives me natural sun kissed look on days I just want to toss on some tinted sunblock and go. If you've been disappointed with other products give this one a try, the price here on Amazon is great too!

Soft & creamy, very pigmented power but not in a bad way. It feels good on my skin & works well with my makeup

I love this highlighter. I use it on the very tops of my cheek bones, under eye brows, bridge of my nose, tip of my chin. I dont know why, but when I use this, my make up just looks better. I recommend this.

Great product. I did follow a review that suggested to rub off the initial coating and then use the powder. this worked well and provides a pearl like glow that is not overly shiny.

This is my 5th time using this product and it's been a great highlighter gliding on smoothly. However, this last time it came badly cracked. I received a replacement and the replacement appeared to be shrunken, so the make-up doesn't come fully to the sides of its case and slides around. So only after using it lightly and gently a few times, it's already cracked and crumbling. I never had any problem with it breaking in the past until it was thinned down from heavy use and ready for replacement. It's still good makeup, but there's clearly an issue. Also the fact it isn't attached in its container makes me worried it was tampered with.

pretty as a highlighter, coconutty aroma

I have used this a couple of times. It was good, not great and I have moved on to a different bronzer.
