Hi Darlings, today’s post is going to be the review and swatch of the Physicians Formula Natural Nude Shimmer Strips Palette For Face & Eyes.
I can’t believe I haven’t done the review of this highlighter but I have talked about it multiple time.
I feel like people don’t mention it enough if you are familiar with my posts you know this is one of my favourite highlighters because you get to use it so many ways and you can customize the colour to best suit your look.
They come in two different shades but I can only get this one here which is Natural Nude
You can get it here for 13,95$
PACKAGING
The packaging is so pretty, mine is slightly destroyed because I use it so much, but it’s really cute with the lacey details and the little bow. Maybe is a bit bulky, I’m not a fan of that.
On the back, you have that handy little mirror and the card that tells you some ways to use the palette. It also comes with a brush which I always throw away.
You get 12 different shades that you can mix for the face (they are too tiny to use on their own) but you can use them individually for the eyes since this palette is supposed to be for both Face & Eyes.
I like the shade range because it works with both light and darker complexions.
PIGMENTATION & FORMULA
The formula is quite stiff in the pan, but that doesn’t make the highlighter less smooth.
It has a sheer coverage but it’s really easy to layer, it will never be a blinding highlighter but I love it for everyday looks since it never looks tacky.
It never looks cakey or powdery, it doesn’t enhance texture and pores.
APPLICATION
It’s really easy to apply and to blend, it looks so beautiful on the skin.
On my face, I mostly use the first two rows horizontally (which I choose If I want a more peachy-pink glow) or the first vertically (when I want a more neutral-gold glow).
I like to use all the shades on the eyes especially the peachy one in the top right corner.
SWATCH
LASTING POWER
On me, it lasts around 8 hours before starting to fade.
RATINGS:
- Colour: 10/10
- Longevity: 9/10
- Application: 9/10
- Formula: 9/10
- Pigmentation: 8/10
- Packaging: 10/10
GRADE: A+
I love this highlighter, I love that is not as metallic as other ones I own, it makes you look radiant from the inside, it’s a very natural glow but totally buildable. The formula is amazing and the packaging is really pretty too. I love that it’s so versatile, you can adapt the shades and all the colours are so beautiful together. For that price, I can’t recommend it enough!

It’s a game changer!
I like Physician’s Formula and I appreciate that it’s sold at many stores. They’re my go-to brand if I need some makeup and don’t want to take the time to order it online.
I’m glad you like it 😀
I actually just recently purchased this myself. I haven’t used it yet, but it was recommended to me. I have to agree, it isn’t really talked about much as a product.
Uhhh let me know how you like it!!
