Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom Bronzer, Blush & Eye Shadow Reviews

Still not sure how I feel about this.
First of all, the packaging is adorable! I think I must have an updated version of this because the shimmer strips are actually wavy and it says that it is a blush as well as a highlighter. I have it in the "Healthy Glow" shade, which is a very cool-toned berry pink. I only swipe my brush along the lighter shades of pink because the darker ones leave my cheeks looking rather magenta-colored. It blends in well and lasts a long time. The reason why I am not sure how I feel about this product is that it seems to draw attention to the pores on my cheeks thus making them appear larger. Also, while I love products with shimmer in them, I think this blush has a bit too much-so much in fact that it almost has a rather metallic finish to it that looks rather odd on my cheeks. Maybe that's why it emphasises my pores? I tone it down by dusting face powder over it but it is still rather noticeable. So maybe using this as an eyeshadow would be a better option. That's what I may end up doing, mostly because I don't want to waste the 10$ I spent on it. — 4 years, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Pretty good.
I thought this was a great buy as it can be used as a : bronzer, highlighter, eye shadow. It is very shimmery! A little too much for everyday eyeshadow always had to wipe some off to tone down the shimmerness. But other than that the product holds its own. Length of wear is pretty good, when used as an eyeshadow, I do find it fades a little ( but this may to due to that fact that I apply eyeshadow after i moisture my face). I think it's also great to use as a highlighter. The value I would say is mediocre, yes phsician formula tend to be on the expensive side for drug store brand but i think you can use this for a long time. the reason i got this was because i was too poor to buy the bobbi brown version of this but it all worked out at the end — 4 years, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

My secret weapon for gorgeous sparkling eyes
Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips is better than the more expensive brands...and I've tried them all! There are several shades of shimmer for different skin tones...I use Sunset Strip Bronzer...I apply then peachy color first all over my lid. I then apply the brown to my crease and a bit along my lash line. Last, I go along my brow line with the pearly color to highlight. I have green eyes and PF Bronzer makes them pop! :o) — 4 years, 6 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful

Better as an eyeshadow than as a bronzer
I love to use these colors for eyeshadow, but it is too shimmery for me to use as a bronzer. Sometimes I use it as a blush. My niece, who is much younger than me, also has this bronzer. She loves it as a bronzer. I think it's more suited to the younger crowd as a bronzer. — 4 years, 7 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Close 2nd to Shimmer Brick!
As a Bobbi Brown fan, I was really intrigued when I saw this product at Ulta for less than half the price of Bobbi Brown's Shimmer Brick compact. The colors are natural and sheer, and I found the shimmer effect to be subtle enough for daytime wear. The Miami Strip Healthy Glow palette is my favorite and one I like to wear as a tawny-rose blush. Great for late summer as the tan fades! — 4 years, 8 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Amazing product!!
I recently got this product a couple weeks ago and I use it everyday, but not as a bronzer. Yeah, it could work as that.. but it adds more of a glow than a bronze cheek I found (too metallic to use all over your cheeks). I have a more fair complextion and I found bare minerals warmth is an amazing bronzer. I use this physicians formula product however instead as eye shadow, all of the shades work well. The lightest color works well in the corners of your eye for a highlighter, and I also use the very lightest color as a cheekbone highlighter after I apply my regular bronzer (just apply to the top area of your cheeks underneath your under eye area). It really adds a natural glow to your cheeks. I love this product! — 4 years, 9 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Not a bronzer at all.
I was really disappointed with this product. The pigmentation is very poor and it did not give me a subtle summer glow at all. It is def more shimmer than bronzer. But, even then, I think there are better shimmer products out there. — 4 years, 10 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Shimmer Heaven
This product is my newest and favorite purchase I have made in a long time. I've tried almost every different color combination of these shimmery strips and have yet to be let down. They are also great because they can be used as both a blush and an eyeshadow (A++ for versatility!). Sleek and easy to carry with you, Shimmer Strips has always allowed me to sparkle and glow. — 4 years, 11 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful

Great product!!!
I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this product! It is great because you can use it for so many different things--bronzer, blush, eyeshadow. I run my blush brush across all the colors and use it as a bronzer, and then I also use an eyeshadow applicator to apply the different colors to my eyes. The colors are very sparkly and look GREAT on eyes--I cannot even count the number of compliments I have gotten on how great my eye makeup looks whenever I wear this product. Especially great for summer because of the sun-kissed glow it gives your skin and eyes. Also WELL WORTH the money, mine has lasted me over a year and I use it at least 3 or 4 times a week. — 4 years, 11 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Great for ALL Over!
I love everything about this bronzer: the price, the color, the shimmer, and the staying power. I recently used it all over my body for a photoshoot and I came out looking bronzed and sculpted (Im very pale) :) All of the colors make great eyeshadows, and look especially stunning on darker skin if you want that Grecian goddess look. I think there are three color choices with these- I have the lightest and find it very versatile. — 5 years agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful
