Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Loose Powder (Translucent Li

My review is for shade Translucent Light. Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Loose Powder retails around $17 for 12g container. I love that Physicians Formula is a cruelty free brand. Unfortunately, as with most powder foundations/setting powders, Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Loose Powder settled into the fine lines and wrinkles of my 50 yr old combination facial skin. Unfortunately, as with most foundations, Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Loose Powder gave my fair skin an orange appearance.

Nice, Soft Coverage

I am impressed with this line. I have a tendency to have my red in my skin peek through foundations, or to be too heavy of coverage. This covers nicely while still being light on the skin. Bonus is, it has also sun protection built into the formula as well. Doesn't leave my skin cakey. Comes with a nice brush also.

Lightweight and Affordable

I have combination skin and was keen to try this out as I have just been using liquid foundation for as long as I can remember. I disliked the brush that came with it, it was very hard on the skin and would recommend a kabuki or any brush that can be applied with as well causes a bit of a mess. The coverage was a bit lightweight which I love and can easily apply another layer. I love to use this when I'm in a rush and find it convenient. I purchased this for $7.99 which isn't too bad.

Good, light coverage powder

Provides awesome coverage for a powder. Comparable to much more expensive versions. A little goes a long way. Not oily, stays put all day. (even through tough night shifts!) 100% recommend!

Worth every penny

Ladies, stop weighing down your face with layer after layer because all you need is this! The pressed powder is great for everyday wear as it's very light, it doesn't clog your pores, and it leaves your skin radiating with beauty! Must have!

I really like this mineral powder but I hate the container. It leaks so much and is almost impossible to carry around. It wore really nice on my face, really easy to blend. I like the tiny bit of shimmer that it gives.

Physicians Formula:Mineral Wear® Talc-Free Mineral Loose Powder in translucent light is a great product to apply on bear skin or on top of foundation. It is effective to mattify your face and a little product goes a long way. The loose powder comes with a brush applicator which I don't use as I like to use my own kabuki brush which is much softer.

The powder does tend to get a bit messy so it's best to apply it before you change into your work or going-out clothes.

The downside of the powder is that it comes in a container which is bulky so difficult to throw in your makeup bag or purse.

On the affordability side, I personally find it quite expensive for a drug store product. It runs at about $19.99 or even more expensive depending on which store. When on sale you may be able to purchase it for $10.99 but it's generally a rare occasion. However, the reason I continue to purchase the product is because it caters to those with sensitive skin and this one does not break me out. It also instantly keeps the facial oils under control and mattifies effectively for several hours before a touch-up is required.

Physicians Formula:Mineral Wear® Talc-Free Mineral Loose Powder;

Personally wouldn't buy again
I like physicians formula, and mineral wearl
but the loose powder gets messy a lot of wasted product.

Didn't like it.

I usually use bare minerals. But tired this for a change. It doesn't match the quality of bare minerals. But is a cheeper effective alternative. I would recommend to buy if new to the mineral foundation world and don't want to go all out and buy bare minerals or another expensive brand when you don't know if you like it yet.

I purchased the Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Talc Free Loose Powder on a whim. Last month I had purchased the Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Airbrushing Blush and was very impressed so I figured I'd try the loose powder this month. I have to say I love this powder! The Natural Beige 2453C is the perfect shade for my skin tone and feels and looks very natural when applied. The product container is great - with the perforated dispensing tray there is no mess or waste and it even comes with a little applicator brush - great space saver when travelling! Price wise it was very reasonable at $16.99 at my local Shoppers Drugmart and a great option when you don't want to spend $40 - $80 on a new loose powder product that you are not sure you are going to like! Honestly - I think it works just as well as my higher end or should I say "higher-priced" loose powder products! Loving the Mineral Wear line!
