REVIEW: Physician Formula Happy Booster Glow & Mood Boosting Blush

~AG~

Bought this Physician Formula Happy Booster Glow & Mood Boosting Blush when I was in the U.S. Physician Formula is a drugstore brand that is readily found in Target, Walmart, CVS and Ulta Beauty. Though it is less commonly found in Singapore. I have seen some Guardian stores carry Physician Formula products. 

This Physician Formula Mood Boosting Blush costs US$10.63 (S$15.50). It is available in three colors: Warm, Natural and Rose. It contains a vibrant mix of blushing tones infused with a pop of color to give a healthy glow. The blush contains multi-reflective pearls to add radiance to the cheek.

It is hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic and paraben-free.This blush is infused with Happy Skin and Euphoryl, natural plant extracts which have been shown to promote a feeling of happiness by mimicking the effect of Endorphins (feel-good hormone) and protecting the skin against environmental aggressors. The sweet scent of violet provides a feeling of joy each time you apply.

The plastic packaging includes a small brush and mirror at the bottom of the blush. The heart design of the blush is pretty. It comes with 5 different pink/blush shades. I cannot say that this blush boost my mood. The pink shade is too bright for my liking, so I tend to use the nude and peach shades. It is not as pigmented as other blushes - Benefit box blushes or Tarte blushes. The formula of the blush did not cause my sensitive skin to breakout.

Overall, this blush is nothing special and I would not recommend it. 

REVIEW: Physician Formula Eye Booster 2-in-1 Lash Boosting Eyeliner + Serum

24 hour of wear

~AG~

Bought this Physician Formula Eye Booster 2-in1 Lash Boosting Eyeliner + Serum while I was in the United States a few months ago. Target retails this eyeliner for US$9.63 (S$14). There are select Guardian stores in Singapore that carry Physician Formula products, but the pricing is not as competitive. Guardian Singapore is selling Physician Formula Eye Booster Eyeliner for S$29.90. Even when Guardian is having 20% off regular-priced items, the price of Physician Formula Eye Booster Eyeliner in Singapore is 70% more than that in the United States. The morale of the story is to ask your friends who are travelling to the States to buy it for you. 

In  Ultra Black

According to Physician Formula, this special product enhances the appearance of lashes while providing definition an eyeliner. Lash Boosting Complex targets the base of the lashes where it is most effective. The eyeliner claims to be water-resistant and smudge-resistant. After using it for over a week, I can testify that this Physician Formula Eyeliner is definitely smudge-resistant. It stayed on for well over 8 hours. It did not smudge to my lower lash line at all. The water-resistant ability of Physician Formula Eyeliner is pretty good. The Physician Formula Eye Booster eyeliner did not smudge even though I teared up while watching a sappy Korean drama. The fine tip brush of the eyeliner creates a smooth and clean look. The pigmentation of the eyeliner is better than that of Clio Kill Brush Eyeliner. The shade I bought was in Ultra Black. The eyeliner is easily removed by using a oil-based makeup remover. Two cotton pads and one cotton bud will completely remove the eyeliner.

Fine tip brush

An affordable drugstore eyeliner that I would repurchase if I were in the States or have friends travelling there. The formula is long-lasting and pigmented. I cannot comment on the lash boosting properties, since my lashes are just as sparse. Other than that, I have nothing bad to say about Physician Formula Eye Booster 2-in-1 Lash Boosting Eyeliner + Serum.
