Physicians formula : your thoughts.

Hey!
My local beauty store now sells physicians formula but I never tested them. What do you think about that brand? Which products are must haves from them?
They seems to have nice highlighters but since they cost 17€ I prefer to ask you girls before buying one :p

I've only tried some of their products, one worth mentioning is their "lash extension kit" it's the type of two step thing and one tube has the fibers that add length which I'm fond of.
The mascara itself I like but the fibers help a lot and give good length.

I feel like I've used more of their stuff but I can't remember perhaps because they never really wowed me.

I have a concealer from them. One end is a green color corrector and the other end is a regular skin color. I like it but don't love it. First the green end should have more coverage and the skin colored end is too dark despite being the lightest shade. The entire brand only carries about 3 shades, none of which are very suitable for people of color or light enough for fair skinned people. Considering how expensive it is (for a drugstore brand) and the lack of color range, and quality of the one product I tried I wouldn't purchase from them again.

I'm interested in trying that brand too. I always hear great things about their bronzers, blushers and mascaras. The price point is quite high though.

I love their Eye Booster felt tip eyeliner :)

I find them to be on par with other drugstore brands. I have tried lots of items from them, but for the price of like 5-20$ less than a higher end brand, I don't bother anymore. They have the same quality as Revlon or Loreal in my opinion. I've never tried anything that was worth buying again. They are nice, and if you enjoy Loreal or other drugstore brands, you'll probably like them as well but my skin is very sensitive to cheaper face makeup products, and even though they claim great for sensitive skin, I find my skin freaks out more with pf. I've tried one of the primers and foundation, and it burned it hurt so badly on my skin. Some people can use them fine but it really didn't agree with me. I don't use red toned face products and they're very much all red toned, at least the selection I've seen. I've never seen a pink blush or a cool toned bronzer at all, and the one blush I got from them, it was the powdered beads, and I had to literally break the beads and use a small brush to pack it on my face because it was so dully pigmented. I have very easily red Skin, so I really don't use a lot of blush, but I had to pack it on like eyeshadow lol. With the eye stuff I much prefer the pigmentation and formulas of sephora brands. Mascara wise I've tried them when they're on sale (I refuse to pay more than 10$ for mascara lol) but it works as well or worse than Loreal or cover girl mascara.

I think ultimately you need to try it out yourself to figure out how you like it, but I think they're over hyped and don't have good enough products to be worth the price, even often the sale prices I wouldn't pay for it. But what doesn't work for one person could be a HG for another :)

I like their eyeshadows! And their bronzers and blushes are pretty. I haven't had much luck with their highlighters though, it didn't highlight anything, just gave me a very chalky powder look.

This brand is very hit or miss, at least for me. But I do really like the conceal rx green concealer, it's really fantastic (I've heard the dual concealer isn't as great). I also like the 2 in 1 liquid liner, I can always count on it to give me a precise line.

I love Physician's Formula, especially because I have makeup allergies and these products are geared towards sensitive skin. I personally love their blushes and powders, but haven't tried their highlighters. I LOVE the mosaic blushes, they're so beautiful.

I like they're Shimmer Strips Gel Creamliner. It comes in 3 colors...glass jars that nestle and interlock together. One of the gel liners is designed to enhance your eye color and so they offer, for example, Green Eyes. It has black, plum (enhances) and then green liner. They are creamy and glide on with nice wear..especially if set with shadow. Great for everyday use and affordable. I think they have good CC cream as well.

I love them! Their concealers cover very well and last all day, their powder is very nice, and I like their lip moisturizers! :) Depending on your skin type and such they work great!
