Dud

It was crap, made the skin under my eyes look caked. it didn't help my concealer conceal if anything it make my eyes look puffier. I guess you can't expect much for $5, i haven't had much luck with any of the ELF range except the setting powder.

I love it

I think its good and it does the job. There are better products out there but this is so affordable.

Tips: I use this with my beauty blender not the little brush it comes with. I feel like it looks better when applied with a beauty blender

Cheap alternative

Does an awesome job at setting concealer under the eyes. If you use quite a bit it also lightens the area you apply it to. It comes with a tiny little brush that they might as well not even make as mine ended up straight in the bin.

It is definitely a cheap alternative to other brands but definitely doesn’t last as long.

Okay product

It is an okay product for its price. Pot is quite small and not easy to handle. Colour is not translucent but it is a very light shade that look almost translucent with teensy weensy shimmers in it. These aren't noticeable at all but they will brighten the under eye area subtly. I have dry under eye area and I use Maybelline fit me concealer (which dries fast and doesn't budge) so this setting powder works on me. However, the brush sucks.

Tips: Use it with a smaller but fluffy brush such as an eyeshadow blending brush for best results.

Great highlighter

I used to use this product religiously as I have quite dark genetic under-eye circles and if I didn't powder over my concealer, it would just disappear. I like how it highlights the under-eye area but I dislike how it settles into fine lines beneath the eyes and ends up accentuating them. I now use it as a highlighter on my cheeks instead (I use a setting spray to set my concealer under my eyes, and that works much better).

Tips: Works great - unless you have lines beneath your eyes as well as dark circles. In that case, get yourself some Nyx Setting Spray and spray onto a beauty blender and dab under your eyes to set your concealer :-)

Waste of money

I tried this product based on some positive reviews I had read. I hoped it would brighten my under eye area and have a bit of an illuminating subtle sparkle. I tried it three times. Firstly with the brush. This was a disaster as it caked into one place and didn't spread well. I then tried my finger and patted it on. Again, not much better. I thought it aged me if anything. Not worth it.

No more smudging

Just love this product, especially in the heat. Great little pot, easy to take with you.

I swipe a very small amount of powder with a small brush both under my eyes and on my lids, I find this will limit eyeliner transfer and mascara smudge in the heat of the summer, especially for hooded eyes.

I have tried going without that little bit of white setting powder, but make-up smudged and transferred, so it certainly is a little pot of confidence for me.

Would definitely recommend this product and I hope they never stop making it.

Tips: Less is more, use sparingly as too much powder will sit in fine lines around the eyes.

Basically paying for something you already have

I bought this hoping it might set my undereyes better than a standard setting powder and honestly it gave the same results setting wise but made my undereyes look white like I had caked in some white eyeshadow under them. Did not like at all

Tips: Don't wast your money. Invest in a good quality setting powder and just use a smaller brush to do your under eyes

ELF Undereye Setting Powder

I've heard good reviews on this and I was excited to find a good under-eye setting powder for this cheap. I didn't have high expectations considering the price, but was highly disappointed - this product did not work for me at all.

The product didn't apply smoothly into my skin at all, it felt super heavy and I felt like it made the fine lines under my eyes stand out a lot more than normal. I tried using it a few different times, using a brush, sponge and the brush it comes with. I appreciate the addition of a brush, but this one was very hard to use and didn't work well, caking on the product and turning my under eye makeup into a crumbly mess. I didn't have much better results when using a different brush or sponge. I didn't feel like it set my concealer very well and, when using this, my concealer didn't last anywhere near as long as when using other powders. It also made my skin look and feel very dry.

I stopped using this product after trying to make it work a few times, I didn't like the way it made my skin look or feel.

An affordable under eye powder that does the job

This e.l.f undereye setting powder does a pretty good job at setting makeup under your eyes to slow down the settling of makeup into creases. I wouldn't say it completely camouflages lines, dark circles and imperfections but it's definitely better than nothing. The velvety finish is really nice as a finish overtop of foundations/concealer etc. Wouldn't really notice anything from the Vitamin C & K "infused formula". I guess it might do something if you were applying it to bare skin but I wouldn't really use it on bare skin.

Tips: Apply with a flat brush, let it set for a minute and then brush the excess off with a fluffy brush.
