I used this product in summer, over a color moisturizing cream. But now that I live in Oregon I find my skin dull, so I have to add some light. This stuff works, it's not too sparkling on my face...

Well, the first time I bought it and tried it, I didn't care much for it at all and thought that it made me look TOO sparkly. It was on sale and the packaging attracted me, so I thought, "why not?"...

Physician's Formula powders are a staple for me. I picked up the Retro Glow powder because it was clearanced at half off. Like the other powders by PF that I use, I found this to apply well and...

I bought this on clearance (there always seems to be a sale on PF products at the drugstores around me) and I'm pleasantly surprised. All I really expected was a decent face powder and this fit the...

I adore this powder and am planning on buying a second one for my purse! It easily adds illumination without covering your face with silly looking sparkles. My skin looks brighter and younger when...

I would buy this again, but only if it were on sale--I think it is priced a little high for what it is. I do like it though--the beige color is actually the best match for my skin tone that I've...

I keep buying this brand because their packaging is so beautiful, but the products aren't so great. It broke up pretty quickly.

This product is great I use over Maybelline Pure Stay foundation. It gives a glow on your skin and evens out skin tone.

This is a great little powder because it adds some pretty subtle shimmer and at first glance the packaging is adorable. After having it for a while, however, I became dissatisfied mainly because...

I like this powder. It was pretty inexpensive, considering the price of other Physician's Formula powders. I think I paid $4.00 at Walgreen's. The container is nice, it's made of metal very sturdy...
