Physicians Formula Gentle Cover Concealer Stick in Soft Yellow Review

Queen of the Girl Geeks

Physicians Formula is my go-to drug store brand for quality hypo-allergenic products and the Gentle Cover Concealer Stick in Soft Yellow in one of my favorite lower cost sticks.

What’s to love?

I like using this stick to cover my dark circles when I’m just running to the grocery store or a casual event. At $6.55 it’s a great deal and works really well. I got this one at Ulta using $3 in reward money so it was even less!

The yellow stick is unscented and feels super smooth on application. It blends well with no creasing and has amazing staying power on my skin. It also works great on concealer my brown age spot on the side of my face. I’ve blended this with other concealers too for a custom color. It’s also buildable, I’ve used powder over this product.

It is Made in the USA and Non-Comedogenic which means that’s it’s formulated not to block pores and I find that to be true.

Physicians Formula Argan Wear Argan Oil Blush Review

Queen of the Girl Geeks

I picked up the Physicians Formula Argan Wear Blush today and it’s a mix of pink and glitter in a beautiful case.

What’s to love.

This new product from Physicians Formula is really neat. The nourishing Argan Wear formula was super smooth on my skin and felt light and airy. It also blends very nicely.

The palette is just beautiful too with a few shades of pink molded into a geometric shape with gold glitter on top. Design wise this product is an A+ as it comes with a gorgeous gold compact, mirror and brush. Total eye candy which was why I bought it.

Why it’s not a daily wear for me.

I’m 46-years-old  with fair skin and I just felt that that the glitter and pink was a bit too much. There are literally large flakes of glitter on your face upon application which is fine for evening or a wedding or a Duran Duran concert, I just can’t see wearing that much shimmer to work.

However the gold sits on the top of the product so I was wondering if the more you use the palette will the gold start to disappear? So I brushed off the gold with a cotton ball and it does seem less prominent.

So if you like glitter, use sparingly to get the maximum glitter factor. If you’re not that into the glitter simply wipe it off.

Overall it’s a neat and beautiful product for the price.

Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Extreme Shimmer Shadow & Liner Review

Queen of the Girl Geeks

I debated about buying the Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Extreme Shimmer Shadow & Liner today for about an hour. I swear once I get into Ulta I can’t leave. I was worried that this palette would be more suited for a 19-year-old but I was completely wrong. I love it and so does my 71-year-old mom!

What I love about the Disco Glam palette (besides the name).

This brand new Physicians Formula palette consists of 6 “highly-pigmented liquid powder eye shadows”. They feel more like a cream than a power, but are a bit flakey so they are not a true cream.

You get one triangle shaped sponge applicator and a super cool glitter case. The case reminds of the 80’s so of course I was enthralled, my guess is that Boy George would love this palette!

My two favorite shades are the purple and the far right light gold. I used both of these for my casual look. Although you can easily go for intense by adding a bit of water. You can also use these as an eye liner too although I didn’t attempt that yet.

The box says you can wear for 24-hours but that would be way past my bedtime, about 8 hours is all I need!

I am so glad I decided to pick up this palette today. Now I want the other colors. Copper Nude looks really pretty as it comes with aqua shimmer and rust shimmer.

Swatches

All of the colors are metallic/shimmer. You get from right to left…dark brown, purple, mauve, dark gold, gold and light gold.

Physicians Formula is an awesome drugstore brand too. They are hypo-allergenic, fragrance free, paraben free, gluten free and cruelty free. I have been using their line since I was a teen.

This palette is Made in Canada.
