e.l.f Undereye Setting Powder Review

HOW IS THIS PRODUCT SO CHEAP!!! it works incredibly and without looking at packaging or brand i would definitely think that it was a high end product because of the high quality and long lasting effects! It definitely does exactly what it says it will do and i cant recommend it enough! if you have been looking for an undereye setting powder for setting your concealer look no further!

First of all, YAY cheap product that everyone can afford! hooray ELF!

However, the brush is a waste of time, mine actually fell out of the packaging before i even got the product home. Once out of the packaging i unscrewed the lid on the tiny pottle and then proceeded to take off the plastic top that was on the glass pottle, little did i know that you actually peel off the plastic strip on the plastic top that has holes in it (derrr) you could only just see the strip and required tweezers to remove it, no wonder i missed it. Tipping the pottle upside down with the lid on a few times gives you a tiny amount of product to play with, i used this with a small stipple brush and dabbed a small amount under my eyes.

I havent notice any dramatic differences yet but overuse the product and hello glitter face! However no creases!! hooray, i will try it with different concealers etc and see what results i get.

So I have panda eyes syndrome, and for everyday when I’m going to uni, I don’t wear a face of makeup, only mascara which tends to illuminate my panda eyes.

In comes this product. My first initial reaction to it was that it is very small. Now for $3 is pretty good, but I was expecting it to be much bigger.

I like that the little pottle clicks shut, important so that it doesn’t spill. But it is a bit difficult to open and use. It has that little plastic pull tab which is perfect to help seal the product in so that it won’t spill, but because it’s so tiny, you have to be careful to not tip it over when you try to pull it open.

I find the brush to be a bit useless, but I dip it in and surround my eye area with it, leaving it on for about 20 seconds and dab it in. It works wonders for someone who isn’t wearing any concealer. It gets rid of dark circles without shine. It also blends in really easily which is a bonus. But I do notice that it is a bit shimmery, almost glittery. Not very noticeable, but if you are in the sun, it definitely shows.

My mother who notices nothing, looked at me and said that my panda eyes have gotten better! Yay!

BUT! While it does take away the dark circles, I can’t help but think (and notice) that it enhances the the baggy lines and creases around my under eye area when I smile, which is something I’m sure no one wants. It is the same when using it over concealer, however not as noticeable.

To avoid it, I have to be careful to place it only about a certain line around the eye.

Overall I am happy with it, but I will be searching the market for better products.

This product is great at defining and highlighting my under eye area, and was great to stop creasing but it was to shimmery, I think glitter ages you so this product was a slight let down because of the shimmer effect. BUT as a highlighter and setter it was great and $3 you cant go wrong. Packaging is cute and stylish but a bit hard to get the product out.

First Impressions on this product was that it did look nice in it's little container but was a bit of a hassle to get out and onto my brush. I use a small blending brush to apply and honestly don't see much of a difference except that it makes my under eyes quite glittery especially in the sun and light. Sometimes it does cover my lines under my eyes but other times it doesn't, which is weird. It can also leave my eye area looking a bit cakey. I got this for $3 off iHerb so there isn't much to complain about but I probably won't be repurchasing this product unfortunately.

This is one of those products that, when I heard all the hype, I just knew was going to end up as one of my HG products. So, in one of my last iherb orders, I picked up one of these, expecting to be wowed at the first use. But... nope.

First off, the packaging is really annoying. It's very chunky considering that the amount of product is actually very small, and the cap is SO hard to twist on and off easily. It looks cute, but that's about all that's going for it, in my opinion.

The actual product is a very fine, slightly champagne tinged sheer powder.... with visible-to-the-eye chunks of glitter running through it. It sparkles in the light. Yep.

The best way to pick up the product is to tap a little bit into the lid, then swirl the brush lightly and tap off the excess

I first tried applying this just with my powder brush, as I didn't have anything smaller. I didn't like how it applied with this brush, as I found it looked a bit cakey, chunky, and actually dulled down my undereye area more than when I just set it lightly with my normal face powder.

However, I was determined to like this, so I bought the RT Setting Brush, as I'd heard that it worked really well with this. I love the brush, but I still don't like this powder. It did apply better, and looked slightly more natural, but to be honest I just prefer how my normal powder looks compared to this one.

I find that this makes my undereye concealer look dull, which attracts attention to the darkness in general, and the glitter particles, although not as obvious as when in the packaging, show up, especially in sunlight. The resulting effect of a dry, sparkly undereye area is not one that I enjoy.

It does prevent creasing, I will give it that, but then so does my Rimmel Stay Matte. It is cheap, yes, but it’s also fiddly and, in my opinion, not that effective, so I’d rather stick with my one face powder . It’s worth giving a shot given the price, but I wouldn’t recommend it, and I definitely won’t be repurchasing.

This undereye setting powder is AMAZING. It brightens up my undereyes, leaving them super soft and smooth looking with no dark circles or fine lines. Holy grail!

I liked this product for highlighting and defying my under eyes but I don't get what the big excitement is with this product It comes in such a small container and hard to get the product out

Pretty much in love with this stuff I have been using it for months, Its super cheap I got it from the ELF Us website for a couple of dollars but its still cheap enough to buy at Iherb or Kmart. The packaging is super cute elf style clear bottom and sleek black plastic twist off lid and comes with a little tiny brush (which I never use). Looks like its just a tiny amount of product but its enough you only need to use a small amount. The product has a slightly pink tinge to it with little reflecting glitters through it, I like to tip a little bit of product into the lid and get a fluffy eye brush and apply to my under eye concealer to set and I love the way it looks brightens up my under eye and the little reflecting bits make it stunning in light. Love it another elf fave!

Not sure how I feel about this one. It is definitely brightening under the eyes, but my concealer still creases under my eyes which is annoying because I bought it to stop the creasing.
