I love this but not how it's intended

I love this but not as it's intended. it doesn't do much for brightening under my eyes. I'm light medium/olive/neutral skin tone. But what I do use this for is blending out difficult eyeshadows..I use alot of very very bright bold eyeshadows and sometimes the lines look too harsh. that's when I will...

I have tried every powder for my extremely oily skin. This powder has great ingredients, affordable price and is very long lasting. I have had this powder for 2 years and am just finishing it now. The shade is perfect, it is translucent but also brightens. The texture is so smooth. 100% recommend this over high-end.

I love this powder! Ive been using it for about two years now. I have pretty dry undereyes as well, with a fair neutral skin tone. I can pair this with my hydrating concealers and have my undereyes still looking like skin after a long day!

This product changed in the past year or two. I used this as an under eye brightener for my wedding in 2017. it was amazing as an under eye brightener /setting powder with true banana pigment. Holy brighten batman! I know it was almost 9 years ago,but I have purchased it continuously as needed. I recently looked for it and now it is white powder with barely any banana coloring to it and shows white as well, which is not what we're looking for as a brightener. Essence please bring back the old banana powder formulation. That is what we want!!!
