I had seen this powder back in early December on some magazine that i cannot remember lol! I have been keeping an eye on every drugstore for these with no luck. I do not own any cosmetics from this brand, but this compact attracted me immediately, and i am sure you can figure out why =D All this time i though this was a BLUSHER, but I guess I was wrong!

According to the PhysiciansFormula website:

The Good:
I guess it is a multi-tasking product, offering even complexion and a radiant glow. I
like aromatherapy, so this is a plus if the scent is relaxing/happy and not artificial and overwhelming.
i also like the fact that it can be translucent, a powder or bronzer.
functions as a blush and a bronzer as well when picking up pigment from the colored hearts
The Not So Good:
Not much actually, except the ingredients list. I know this brand is supposed to be all natural etc, but the most important ingredients in any given priduct are the first 5, and unless i am totally off, the first one is not a very welcoming one.
I do not know whether my skin reacts to talc or not. I never really cared to read lables. Recently though, i have been more cautious (except my MAC Studio Fix purchase) about the foundations i buy, since i have been breaking out like crazy!
Either way, I will be buying this comact soon. I love the packaging and the hearts....now i just have to hide it from my fashion/beauty-forward little girl Jaeden LOL. As soon as i RUN and get it, i will post pics and swatches....I am hoping i dont break out lol. The hardest decision will be choosing it as a setting powder or a bronzer =/
Have you ladies tried this product? Brand?
I am looking for this compact too as a present for a friend! :)
