e.l.f Undereye Setting Powder Review

Wow, this stuff is like magic. I have been waiting a long time for it to come back into stock on iHerb, and then make it's way to me, but it has been worth the wait.

It comes in a little pottle, with it's own little brush. I'm not a fan of the brush so I just use another of my own. It's fantastic for setting my under eye concealer, and hiding my dark circles. I think it makes me look about 5 years younger! (Or just way less tired).

It does have a slight shimmer to it, but I don't find it overpowering or too dramatic. I can barely tell unless I look closely under lights. It doesn't add any depth of colour, so it's a perfect 'invisible' lift.

I found it really easy to apply and blend, I've had no problem with streaking or patchiness.

Great product at such a bargain price.

I really loved the idea of this product and was really excited to give it a try. I have dark circles and wrinkles under my eyes and it did do pretty good at cover the darkness but It still creased where my wrinkles were and was a bit too sparkly for under my eyes.

this under eye sitting powder make stour under eyes so smooth and silky its crazy it locks in your concelar so it lasts all day and doesn't ware off i love it

I ordered this stuff on a whim not sure how to use it or anything.

It is packaged in a cute little pottle with a tiny little brush, very cute! It is a super fine translucent powder with a light shimmer in it.

I didn't really know how to use the powder initially and given it's shimmer I wasn't too sure about putting it all over my concealer around my eyes, so personally I use a tiny little bit under my bottom lash line, and around both corners of my eyes. It has an awesome brightening effect around the inner corners of my eyes, and applying it under my lash line and in the outer corner stops my eyeliner from moving completely! I was seriously amazed when my eyeliner didn't smudge one bit after using this, but without it my eyeliner starts to smudge within an hour or two! (the joys of pencil, cause I'm too unco for liquid haha).

I don't think I could live without this stuff now! I haven't come across another product that does anything like this.

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.

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!

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

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!

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.

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.
