How adorable!!! I wonder what these are? Beauty Powders, blush? I may have to splurge and treat myself to one. Too adorable with thos cute hearts. Thank you Sephoraholic!!!!! I agree with Naynadine & Pemily, they do remind me of Physician Formula powders also, which I have tried and liked, so I am on board.


Look at the little hearts! Sooo cute

Stupid question. What are pearlmattes and is there a difference between them and beauty powders? Thank you!
Someone else can chime in here, but they are more shimmery than the regular BP but still very finely milled. Similar to the Vera Neuman powders. They had one that came out with MAC in Lillyland if you google that that had a cute floral pattern--you swirl it and it is like a highlighter or brightener. The colors can also be used individually, but they usually aren't pigmented enough to use, say as an eyeshadow or blusher...

If I had to guess I'd say it's an overspray. But who knows. Pearlmattes would be great, but if those were BP similar to the Marylin one it would be even better.

If they are pearlmattes, it reduces the chance for overspray I guess, because the colours went through the whole powder with the pearlmattes, right?

Sorry, I misplaced my English faculties somewhere today....

I read your English fine and that sounds right to me. Pearlmattes have not had overspray so far. I am not sure how we jumped to teh conclusion that will be a pearlmatte though. It looks sort of like the blushes from Quite Qute to me...

I have a PF Happy Booster blush (Natural) and a PF HB face powder (Translucent), and the shimmer is overwhelming, plus the scent doesn't make me happy - too strong! I had a discount coupon for the PF HB and there was a store discount that day, so i got each one for around $6.
