I constantly read makeup and skin product reviews by professional makeup artists/dermatologists and came across this recommendation. With doctors, dermatologists and even the skin cancer foundation urging people on having adequate sun protection, this is an ultimate gem. We all know that the sun is a main contributor to find lines and nobody likes age spots. Even if you don’t care for sun protection, as a powder itself: Smooth Good coverage Doesn’t easily look caked or unnatural the way many SPF powder foundations do Leaves skin looking flawless Esthetically, it really does rival a non SPF powder Does not make me break outFor those looking for adequate sun protection, these numbers speak for themselves: Active Ingredients: 4% Octinoxate – blocks UVB 21% Titanium Dioxide – physical blocker of UVA 3% Zinc Oxide – physical blocker of UVAThese percentages are humongous. While they don’t recommend only wearing SPF powder for sun protection, there are so many physical UV blockers in this powder that I layer it over my foundation or sunscreen and am adequately protected from the sun, skin looking flawless. I hate the shiny look sunscreens can give you, and Neutrogena’s Dry Touch line makes my skin feel like it’s burning as my skin is very sensitive. I also prefer physical UV protection over chemical ingredients like Avobenzone because they only last about 2 hours tops for sun protection while this powder will keep on protecting all day. I just touch up here and there if I sweat a bit or as hours have gone by. I bought this powder for Buy One Get One 50% at the drugstore. Not all drugstores carry it.

I have very sensitive skin, and seemingly everything I’ve tried putting on it causes me problems, especially sunscreen. I am so glad I found this stuff. It is great. No burning, no breakouts, no dripping in my eyes when I get hot. I really didn’t care about the make-up component of it. I just wanted to try it as a cheaper alternative to other powder sunscreens on the market. However, it turns out it is a great light coverage that evens my skin out a bit and doesn’t make me look cakey or made-up. PERFECT!! I took my 10 year old son to the pool the other day and forgot sunscreen…oh no! My healthy wear compact was all I had, so I tried it. My son was mortified that I was putting make-up on him, but after looking in the mirror he was amazed that he couldn’t even tell. I used it on his face, chest, and shoulders and hoped for the best. He is fair skinned like me and burns fairly easily. 3 1/2 hours of sun exposure later and not a hint of sunburn. Amazing! He swam, dove, rubbed his face, pulled his goggles on and off constantly and still got great protection. He has asked if he can use it from now on, although he doesn’t want anyone to see me putting it on him. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Simply the Best Quality Sun Protection Powder at a True Bargain Price, June 14, 2011 This review is from: Physicians Formula Healthy Wear Powder Foundation, SPF 50, Translucent Medium 7071 (Misc.) I have always tried to take care of my skin–with sun protection being a big priority. Over the years I tried expensive prestige brands of high SPF powder like Shiseido and Peter Thomas Roth. None has done as well for me as Physician’s Formula Healthywear Powder SPF 50. (I found the brush applicator of the Peter Thomas Roth to be particularly stiff and of poor quality. Neither the PTR or the Shiseido colors never really matched my complexion.) One benefit of the Physician’s Formula Healthywear powder is that it is so inexpensive. I can get it for around .99 at Ulta (.50 less when I use their coupon) or .99 at Target. Not only does it offer superior sun protection but it also is a superior cosmetic product, giving my skin a smooth, porcelain like finish. Since I have oily skin in the summer (where large pores prove a challenge to most powders), I find that his powder gives me the best, smoothest finish without becoming shiney with oil breakthrough du ring the day or turning orangey or “standing” in my pores, as so many other powders have done with my skin. During the winter months, my skin becomes drier and I have found that this product works equally well then. It stays matte without drying out my skin. To get the sheerest finish, I use my Jane Iredale “Handi” brush to apply the powder (instead of the sponge that comes with it) over a base of Erno Lazslo “Regular Normalizer Shake-It” (A very light foundation/treatment). I reserve the sponge for times when I either want more coverage over a foundation or wear the powder alone with no foundation under it). I find that the sponge gives me a more complete coverage–but never cakey or too heavy like other products I have tried. I also carry an extra compact with the sponge in my purse for touch-ups on my nose. Back when I used Retin-A Micro, my dermatologist insisted that I use higher SPF products. Physician’s Formula Healthywear fit the bill perfectly by providing superior sun protection without irritating my Retin-A sensitive skin. I use the “Translucent Light” color. I cannot say enough positive about this product. I hope they ALWAYS continue to make it. In the winter, I also use their companion tinted moisturizer under the powder which also has an SPF of 50. Who knew there were such outstanding products at such reasonable prices? |
