Physicians Formula Murumuru Butter Bronzer

Physicians Formula Murumuru Butter Bronzer

The famous Butter Bronzer from Physicians Formula has been on my WL for years. I always saw youtubers and bloggers raving about it but I thought 17,90€ was just too much for it (that's the price in Slovenia, I know there are less expensive elsewhere). I probably wouldn't even buy it but it was on sale so I ordered it.

The bronzer comes in a bulky plastic packaging. This really isn't the best packaging to travel with. You also get a mirror, as well as a brush, which I don't even know what to do with. I would prefer it to be without that additional compartment with the brush so it would be slimmer and easier to travel with. You get 12g of product in the packaging. The design is pretty and tropical with all the green leaves.

Physicians Formula had only two shades before, I'm not sure how long they have more but I think we can't get darker ones in Slovenia. I bought the shade Bronzer that is a bit too light for me. I have to build it up for it to show and it can get a little patchy if I use too much. I apply it with a light hand and try to build it up just a bit, so it actually looks that I'm wearing it.

The formula is amazing though. It feels soft and buttery like the name suggest. If I use a normal amount it does blend nicely, too nicely, it just blends into my skin. The scent is coconutty and I was so surprised that I didn't like it much when I got it. It's very strong at first and it even lingers on the brushes I use the bronzer with. Now I got used to it. The finish is very natural, not matte and not glowy, something in between, like a healthy sheen.

I like the formula of the bronzer, I just wish I could try a darker shade of this. From the website, it looks like they have 8 shades now, which is just amazing. My shade is slightly too light and I have to use more of it if I want it to show up, so I understand it can get a bit muddy if I apply too much. I also tried using it as an eyeshadow. I put a bit in the crease on my quick and natural makeup days and I like how it turns out. On the photo below, the first swatch is Essence Sun Club Bronzer in shade Brunette and the second one is Physicians Formula and hopefully, you can see how much lighter PF bronzer is.

In the whole post I tried to say that this is a great formula, nothing I have tried before, silky and buttery and blends nicely. But the Bronzer shade just isn't for me. I do still use it a lot because the formula is a dream but I have to get my hands on a darker shade.

Thank you for reading!

  1. Moj najljubši bronzer <3 Formula je res super in se odlično zabrisuje. Meni je odtenek Bronzer pravi za zimo. Poleti pa ga tudi nanašam malo več. Mi je pa škoda, ker ga več ne prodajajo na click2chic. Zdaj pa ne vem, kje ga bom lahko naročila :/.

    1. Jaz bi zdaj res rada sprobala temnejši odtenek, ker za poletje bo meni absolutno pretemen :/ click2chic je na sploh škoda, so imeli kar nekaj dobrih dealov včasih.
