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.

You get what you pay for
Heard lots of hype around this powder, but it was awful. Did not sit right on my skin, was SO cakey and creasy. If you're looking for a cheap alternative I recommend the wet n wild photofocus powder.
So BOMB!
This product doesnt only make my makeup matte but it prevents creasing under my eyes like no other product has.
Good! could be better!!
it is like a charolette tilbury dupe but you need a lot for the oroduct to actually go on your skin.
Yes, but no
I have dark circles and this definitely helps but it doesnt mattify enough for me in the t-zone
Excellent
Admittedly a bit skeptical due to the price, but it's so very good! The yellow is subtle and the overall look is airbrushed. Grab it up - think you will be pleased!
