Physicians Formula Super BB Cream All-in-1 Beauty Balm Powder Light/Medium | Dermatologist Tested, Clinicially Tested

A total surprise staple! Very multifunctional whether it be as a finishing powder, a touch-up or as full coverage pressed powder. I recently went back to pressed powders as a back-up and the expensive ones just don't do as well.. This covers everything and makes you look like you have no pores. At most, you may want to first apply a touch of complimentry concealer here or there.. I have light medium and strangely enough it's just right though I know I can't speak for everyone. I was amazed that it was such a good match, especially with such a limited color selection, but then again it is marketed as a finishing powder and they always have a more limited color range. I was just looking for one that wasn't white & chalky. Plus, it has great sunblock & great ingredients. The one caveat is that it breaks easily so don't drop it, even a short drop!

One of the best powders out there. I've used this for past several years & still get compliments on my skin. Covers well, especially for a powder. Beats out more expensive powders like Bare Minerals. Creates a flawless base & is easy to asd bronzer & blush to it. A must have for my makeup routine. I don't feel good when I run out & don't have it.

My daughter uses this as her every day foundation. It is good coverage but not heavy. She has sensitive skin and it doesn’t irritate her at all.

I purchased this compact from Amazon. The graphics in the product listing express directly in words that the product contains spf 30 uv protection. However, the actual package the product arrived in does not have that written anywhere. With that being said the second ingredient listed on the package is zinc oxide, which we know is a mineral (physical) sunscreen. The very last ingredient listed is titanium dioxide which is also a mineral uv sunscreen, and since it is last its concentrated is the lowest amount when compared to the other ingredients. Since zinc oxide is listed at the top of the ingredients list, meaning it's the second most highly concentrated ingredient, why the package does not promote that the product provides uv protection? And while other packages in circulation of the same product express in writing that the product has spf 30 uv protection. Has anyone else noticed this. Aside from these points the product itself is quite nice, smooth, light coverage, feels nice on the skin, blendable, build able, and has a nice matte (not too matte) finish.

This powder is so good. I use it over the BB cream. It's good for your skin, lightweight, build able and works well. The price is good, the powder lasted me all day, color matched well.

This is not great for light skin. I ended up using it more as a bronzer.

I’m a repeat buyer of this powder. I repeat buy as few things as I can manage. My skin loves this product for reasons mysterious to me. I am only ever frustrated by the packaging. I’m a packaging minimalist. So I would be really excited to see a zero waste packaging option with materials like non-glossy paper and aluminum! Compostable/biodegradable plastic would also be fine by me. I lowkey hate the useless brush and excessive plastic packaging. I know it isn’t much product and marketing needs the bulk, but for repeat buyers - can we have a refill version or something please?? Also I love that PP has so many products rated on EWG’s database and I’d love to see more! Give bareminerals the modern thinking competition they need. Sustainable packaging, nontoxic ingredients, and reasonable prices. Free advice from a retail consumer who wants to see better options in the cosmetic industry. <3 (Because I want this to actually be seen, I’m starting this at 1 star and will change to 5 stars upon a response from the brand.)

I have a hard time finding a makeup that hides the dark circles under my eyes. They're more like a light purplish color and I have a hard time finding make up to cover this. This powder goes on easily and last for many hours. If it's been over 8 or 9 hours, and I still need coverage, I lightly reapply in areas like under the eyes and maybe the tip of the nose (since I blow my nose a lot--ha! ha!)and the T-zone. There is a light shimmer with this make up, giving a more youthful appearance. It also is good at filling in the wrinkle cracks around and under eyes. Sometimes, if I want to go mostly without makeup, I'll still use this under my eyes and on my eyelids to get rid of the purple areas, and not put it anywhere else, which is possible with this makeup! I don't like the white brush that comes with it. I now use those brushes for dusting little hard to reach corners in my furniture. I use a makeup brush to apply this all over my face and a make up sponge to get it on the eyelids and under the eyes. I use this on my eyelids as a base coat before applying eyeshadow, or just use it on my eyelids for a more natural look before applying mascara to my eyelashes. I love this makeup!!
