product review..Physicians Formula Heathy Wear

beaglebiz · #1 07/23/12, 09:31 AM

Its a tinted moisturizer, SPF 50...
I scanned my card at CVs about six weeks ago, and got a $15 off any Physicians Formular product. I got this, because I needed spf moisturizer, and this was 14.99. I LOVE it.
I just turned 44 yesterday, and wrinkles are not a problem for me, but dark spots on my skin (melasma) and mild rosacea (just a light reddening on the cheeks) are my main issues. At home, I usually just wear neutrogena mousturizer with a high SPF...which does not cover up any of my "flaws". This stuff is great!! One pump is plenty for your whole face, covers nicely, and most importantly, lightly. I like it so much, that last visit to cvs, I have a few coupons...20 percent off order, exra care bucks, 3 off phy formula (printed at kiosk in store) $4 off 20 beauty purchase etc etc..that I bought a spare. Just thought Id share...
Oh, might mention the bottle is still half full, even after using a pump a day for 6 weeks

Thanks for the review. I might have to try that as I've got a few things I'd like to cover these days.

Does it come in different shades?

I tried a Skinny Girl tinted moisturizer (clearance for $3) and liked that, may have to try this one when that that runs out. Usually liquid makeups cake on my skin and look weird...the tinted stuff doesn't seem to.

Happy Birthday BTW!

It doesn't make your rosacea worse? Is it greasy or oily?

it comes in different shades....Im using natural to tan and its blending nicely.
Does not affect the rosacea at all. To be honest, I didnt know rosacea was what I had, but I recently went to the dermatologist for another issue, and he told me thats what it was. no raised bumps or anything, just a redness on the cheeks and chin that can get redder with a glass of wine

, so it really is a mild case.
No greasyness or oiliness...it absorbs right in. If you have a CVS...watch for the coupons, and try it for free like I did. Also, check the ingredients list to see if you recognize something that sets the rosacea off. Hope it works for you like it did for me!! The spf 50 will also help me with the melasma, as the dark places can become darker from the sun
