I so do not get the hype about this product. It is affordable but that is likely because it is TINY. I was really surprised to find glitter in it too and when I wear it I feel like it looks like fallout from my eyeshadow. Does it set my undereye concealer? Yes, but no better than just using my regular face powder. I think next time I'll just invest in some Bare Minerals or MAC.

This powder is amazing and so affordable. There are tiny sparkles but I don't mind this because I quite like it under my eyes. I find it doesn't stop the creasing completely under my eyes but it helps and it reduces the creasing. I use Maybelline fit me concealer and LA Pro concealer and then the elf under eye powder to set it. I would only use the powder once after I apply my under eye concealer and I work a 8.5 hour shift and it's not until the 5th hour that I don't realise any creasing under my eyes. I would definitely recommend this powder to anyone. Value for money.
I got this from iHerb because it had lots of good reviews and I thought I should get a separate under eye setting powder (not sure why I would ever think they needed to be different from the normal setting powder I have). when it came in the mail, I was shocked and how small it is, it's literally the tiniest thing ever!
It is NORMAL setting powder, that you can get anywhere, and honestly it makes absolutely no difference than using the bigger sized Elf translucent setting powder - you're probably saving yourself by buying the bigger one.
It is normally setting powder, that makes no drastic change, and there is nothing special about it. But I can't complain since it is $6 although for that size, I still feel ripped off!
After applying your concealer just dab some powder on top to set it in place, however since this is a tiny container, you will have to tap some onto your hand and then use it from there.
Don't waste your money on this size - get the bigger HD Setting Powder by E.L.F because they're basically exactly the same. This tub is TINY and it's hard to get a good amount of product on your brush (and you really need to use a different brush to the one they give you). I'm fairly sure the bigger one is like $1-$3 more so just get that.
I get so annoyed with E.L.F when they put glitter in products - it seriously ruined this. BUT if you use a nice fluffy brush you can pretty much just flick the glitter off your face and the powder stays there. The only thing is getting your nice fluffy brush into the tub without picking up like half the contents of the tub itself. Such silly packaging. They give you one of those covers with the holes so that you can pick up what you need but barely anything comes out when you use that.
The powder itself is amazing. It sets my concealer perfectly. If only they made it bigger and without glitter. I don't think it's really light reflecting because I flick all the glitter off so I really do just use it as a setting powder for my concealer - so basically any old powder would work really.
I read great reviews on this product and decided to purchase it myself, in all honesty i think its ok I have had this for around 5months and have not reached for it at all in the past 3 months. It seems to be the exact same as the big pot of E.L.F HD setting powder except with added glitter. I do not see why you would need glitter in an under eye powder, I am disappointed in this product and would not recommend to friends
Tips: Buy the big E.L.F hd setting powder instead this is tiiiny
This stuff is pretty good For $3. I love using this when my under eye area is particularly dry as normal powders make my concealer crease in this area quite bad but this doesn't as it is very fine. A little bit goes a long way so I don't mind the small size of the pottle. It can get a bit messy though. I don't like how it contains glitter tho. It's so unnecessary and unflattering.
Tips: Use a fluffy brush as it stops the glitter from showing up to much and blends out nicer.
I decided to purchase this because I had heard such rave reviews about it and E.L.F is usually someone that can deliever! And no one can be disappointed about paying $3.. How ever when it arrived in the mail, I was shocked at how small it was! Waste of time to be honest. It seems to be exactly the same as the E.L.F HD setting powder, except they decided to add glitter (am NOT a fan of that varient) If Glitter isnt your thing, I suggest use a nice, really fluffy brush to remove the glitter, the powder will just stay there.
Honestly. I searched it on my hand and saw the glitter and freaked. So I put it away in a dark deep draw somewhere. I was playing with makeup and came across it one day so decided to try it and omg.. I'm totally stuck on this stuff I ise it everyday. And yes it's weird but It makes my under eyes sooo smooth and not creased. In love.
This is what I'm using currently as my under eye setting powder. Not because it's my favourite but I go through a lot because I have yet to find one that works really well for me. It does set the concealer under my eyes but it does settle into like, every single line I have under there. I have to touch up quite frequently so I don't think I'll be using this one for very much longer. Still on the hunt!
Since I saw shaaanxo use this I brought it and fell in love. I use this to set my under eye concealer and it does such a amazing job it doesn't crease or Crack and it has a beautiful glow to it so it always makes me look refreshed everyone should ay least try this product.
