    Hall of fame status for setting one's undereye concealer! This is one of the very few products that I cannot do without. I have dark, hereditary undereye circles and must use concealer. Regardless...

    The sifter holes for this are too big so I only opened the sticker halfway exposing half the holes. I think the brush used to apply this powder is really important. At first I was using a blush...

    I bought this in shade #2. It is not so white but a little ivory. I not only use this to set my foundation under my eyes, but I also use it all over my eyelid and inner corner. I found that this...

    I went back to this little jar of powder even though I very much preferred the coverage of Benefit's Powderflage. This powder can conceal pretty well, but it doesn't really hide very bad circles...

    When I first bought this I was disappointed because it didn't work any better than my NARS loose powder. However, I noticed that when taking pictures, it makes my dark circles completely disappear....

    This is hands down the best powder to set concealer with under the eyes. Its so fine but it makes such a difference. It brightens and for me reduces the darkness and best of all you can't see its...

    Only one use, and I can tell this product is going to be a staple for me. It works much better for setting my concealer, as it's much less noticeable on me than the Loose Setting Powder. My only...

    This is a HG product for me. I use it less to conceal dark circles (it is too white for that) than to disguise fine lines and the beginnings of sagging around the eye area. It is so finely milled...

    I use this over LM Secret Concealer, just as all the SAs tell you to. It is perfect for keeping the concealer smooth and crinkle-free all day. I don't have any other use for this -- it's not...

    This did absolutely nothing for me. I found it to be expensive for what just seems to be a powder.
