When I first bought this it was to set the secret camouflage concealer that I had also got at the same time but which I never really loved. I always found it a bit cakey for me though I know many a devotee of it. But this, this I loved from the get-go and every similar product I've tried has just not really matched it. If you are someone who likes to set their under-eye corrector and concealer then this product could be for you.It brightens without the use of shimmer so is fantastic for those of us who still show a bit of dark under the eyes even with a concealer. And it doesn't fall into, and therefore accentuate any creases which is the main problem I've found with every other under-eye setting powder I've tried.
And it seems to work on all skin types even though it's a white, light reflecting pigment there is no ashiness, if correctly applied... I've seen some internet disasters whilst researching this. What is make-up coming too? When will this female drag look go out of fashion and eyebrows go back to looking like brows not Sharpied on slugs? Rant, rant...
A little of this goes a long way so just gently pat it on to where you need to brighten and set your concealer. I use the Laura Mercier Camouflage Powder Brush to apply this but you could use any soft brush, powder puff or even a cotton bud if you needed too. Don't apply this all over the face just where you want to be brightened. This is also lovely on the eye lids to set a base and give a glowy, natural look to the lids so great for those who want a basic flick liner look.
