e.l.f Undereye Setting Powder Review

I was introduced to this wee guy recently (Thanks Shannon Harris!) - I bought mine off iherb for $3US, cheap as chips (I grabbed an extra for a friend too). and although when I opened it I was slightly alarmed at the amount of glitter I could see I would definitely not class it as glittery on the skin. I have very dark circles under my eyes, and wear a very heavy concealer most days to hide them. This setting powder overtop of my heavy concealer lasts all day! The powder is slightly reflective without being shiny and this gives the illusion that I am well rested! I absolutely adore this and will definitely be replacing when I run out! As for the packaging, yup its tiny...but it costs $3 - What are you really expecting. You only need such a small amount and I don't see it running out that quickly!

I use this product everyday as I always find that I have bad creasing on my under eye area.. As I have fair skin I don't find it brightens under my eyes but it almost blurs the skin there to make it look a lot more flawless. A lot of people have complained about the 'glitter' in the product I worried about this when I first tried it but it's barely noticible on the skin. I love how it works with my Mac ProLongwear concealer - for the price it's amazing!

I bought this as I had heard so many people raving about it, like most I purchased it from iherb. I am in my late 20s and under eye creasing is starting to become more of a reality/problem for me and just using concealer under my eyes didn't seem to be cutting it. I find that a little goes a long way with this powder, you don't want to be too heavy handed as it is a glittery/ish product and you're bound to have fall out. I find this will go the distance if I put a finishing powder over the top of this when I finish off my face and it looks a bit more polished and less glittery.

I watched so many videos where people use this product I knew I just had to try it out myself to see what all the hype is about. This product doesn't crease on me like other powders I've used to set my under eye area. It is so finely milled that it is just splendid to work with. It is so affordable which is an added bonus and it doesn't leave a white cast under my eye like I thought it would. Final verdict, I love it and will definitely be repurchasing this product over and over again.

i have major problems with under eye creasing and it ruins my hole makeup look . this product is absolutely amazing it blurs my under eye creases its just one of the best products i have come across and for only $5 in new Zealand i don't see no reason not to get it ! it does have glitters in but as soon as i put this on the skin they seem to disappear i would most defiantly recommend this to anyone with any foundation /concealer creasing problems .

I bought this because it was so cheap.

I use this right around my eye after foundation and concealer. It sets the products and prevents everything from settling into my lines.

It works great! I no longer have foundation sitting in all of my lines. It lasts all day and looks great.

When you look at the product it has small, shimmery glitters, but it doesn't transfer glittery on your face.

This is a must try for everyone!

Because of all the hype and its affordable price, why not? I purchased this off iherb and when it arrived my first initial thoughts were, damn thats tiny! The brush is no use i reckon. I use this with my real techniques setting brush which i love! (I reviewed it as well)

I don't think it is as fine as people make it out to be, although its definitely not chunky. There are specks of glitter on the powder but as you apply it, it turns into a sheer adding a glow on your skin. As for setting my concealer, i think it does an okay job. I still prefer my ben nye banana powder, maybe because I'm tanned.

The longevity of the product is not as great. I still need to set my under eye with my normal face setting powder. I don't think this keeps me matte at all. I find that within 2 to three hours of wear the powder has disappeared, but when i use my ben nye powder, it lasts longer. It doesn't really help with creasing. Sometimes my under eye still creases with this on.

The packaging is so tiny and its got quite a stubborn cap, like when you twist it close, its sometimes on the wrong line of twist if you get me, but thats just being nitpicky because for the price its not too bad.

Overall, its good for the price. If you're on a budget then this is great but id totally recommend ben nye's powders.

I purchased this a while back as it is such a raved about product and I figured all that hype couldn't be wrong...right? Wrong! Well for me anyhow. I purchased mine off iherb for practically nothing so I'm not too disappointed it didn't work for me.

The packaging of this product is a bit ridiculous. The brush that comes with it is sooo tiny...I'm not exactly sure how that small of brush is meant to evenly apply product and to me its pretty useless. The size of the pottle makes it very difficult to get an appropriate amount of product out and is quite difficult to use I find. The lid never seems to screw on right, which for a cheap product I would accept but when the packaging sucks and the product isn't fantastic either there is no redemption.

The powder is relatively finely milled like you would expect for a setting powder but I really dislike the look of the glitter specks that I guess are meant to help highlight the area. I just find they look like eye shadow fallout (which i try my hardest to avoid) and just bring attention to my puffy under-eyes. A lot of people seem to find this helps prevent there eye shadow from creasing but I haven't found that in my experience either.

Don't get me wrong it still sets my concealer but I just dislike the result and personally find my Natio pressed powder (which I often use to set my concealer) looks far more natural than this.

I was hoping this would be my Holy Grail setting powder like it seems to be for so many others. I will not be repurchasing this again as I have given it a good go and it has just not lived up to the hype.

My under eye area is a huge problem area for me, and I purchased this product after hearing all the hype. Unfortunately, it did not make all my brightening, non-creasing and setting dreams come true :( Without being too blunt, the packaging is horrible, haha. Mine is all through the lid and invariably spills everywhere. The brush that came with it is hopeless, and even using a bigger brush it is difficult to apply and work with. The powder itself is nice and fine, but quite white, with lots of glittery bits through it. I am pretty much about ready to give up on it at this stage-but at least it wasn't expensive ;/

I like many others got this off iherb after reading all the hype, but to be honest its a bit of a let down. The lid is so hard to put on and you really have to fiddle with it to get it to screw on right. You have to use a totally different brush from what it comes with, something larger and fluffier.

I find it works well to begin with, like when its first applied, but I dont find it works all day, i still notice the fine lines later in the day. I also really dislike the glitter in it.
