I tend to be a beauty snob… drooling over high-end luxe product and "glossing" (pardon the pun) over the less expensive but equally fabulous drugstore options. No more! I’m turning over a new leaf and introducing a new feature on Raging Rouge. "Drugstore Chic" posts will review the brands we can buy 24 hours a day at our local drugstore, with ever-accessible price points.
I recently sampled Physicians Formula Mineral Fluid Powder Eye Shadow in Amethyst. The handy mascara-style tube houses a wand with a sponge-tip, to sweep the slightly damp powder onto your lids. Thinking through every eventuality, the Physicians Formula team even attached a small mirror to the back of the bottle for precise application on the go.
The color applies in a thin wash, but is easily be layered for a more dramatic effect. Personally, I loved the subtlety of this eyeshadow, and have been using it on my lids to add some interest to a neutral eye palette. The lavender color is a gorgeous compliment for a brown-eyed brunette!
For those with other colors in mind… Physicians Formula offers six shades: Sand Stone, Amethyst, Rose Quartz, Plum Garnet, Brown Stone and Taupaz.
I highly recommend this product… and at $6.95 a pop you can buy the whole collection! Physicians Formula can be found at most local drugstores, drugstore.com, and the Physicians Formula website.
