Physicians Formula Happy Booster Blush - Rose : Swatches & Review

Physicians Formula Happy Booster  Glow & Mood boosting Blush - Rose
Price- $ 11.95 (About Rs. 550/- BUT costs over Rs.1000/- on E-bay)

Quantity- 7g

I had been eying this beauty ever since it was launched - tried to not give into the temptation - by telling myself all sorts of things -like....
 - I don't need another pink blush!
- It would  probably not suit my skin tone!
- Overpriced for a drugstore brand!
- Will get it cheaper later
- It's just a Phase - it will pass

 BUT it refused to leave my mind.... i kept checking and rechecking the price on E-bay, It was always hovering around 1000/- Me thinking- Should I pay double the price for it???
Luckily e-bay sent me a coupon for Rs 250/- and I ordered it immediately since at 750/- it seemed a good deal!! :)


What does the company Say:
  • Ultra-soft and blendable blushing powder features a fresh and vibrant mix of blushing tones infused with a pop of color to create a healthy glow.
  • Multi-reflective pearls provide a soft iridescence to highlight contour and add radiance to cheeks.

  • The sweet scent of Violet provides a feeling of joy each time you apply.

It was love at first sight!



So Cute- Makes my heart flutter!

All blended together 



Yay's
  •  The Design! Just look at the cute hearts - you'd have to have a heart of stone to be able to resist its charms - It apparently was much sought after when it launched  around Valentines Day!( Something similar was also launched from the brand Stila)
  • This gives a natural pink blush look - the other shade (Natural) might be too light for Indian skin-tones
  • Also available in a range of Powders and Bronzers
  • Hypoallergenic. Non-comedogenic. Paraben-free. Dermatologist approved!
  • No apparent, overpowering smell when applied (good thing for me and other sensitive-noses!)
  • Easy to blend - the subtle shimmer adds to the overall glow and its not chunky or blingy
  • The design is pretty deep - so it won't get ruined for sometime
Nay's
  • Not available in India - you would have to hunt it down on  E-bay and likes - where it will be much overpriced! Recently the company also hiked the prices.
  •  

The Last Word: If  you can't get it outta your mind - get with it! Even if it's only to look at it and sigh! Ahhhh...
