Lovely, with just the right amount of undetectable coverage for a foundation under the eyes.
Wow. This stuff is effective and perfect for me! I have the darkest circles under my eyes on the planet! (Almost). This is exactly what it says it is . . .a brightener. It is not a full coverage product. It lightens the color and is nearly undetectable. It blends easily and is great for no make up days. It makes me look more awake and not ready for the coffin! When I wear makeup I can use much less cover up product to minimize the dark circles. Worth every penny in my makeup collection.

Excellent Concealer, you just have to apply it correctly
This $6 under-eye brightener/concealer works just as well as similar products that are 5 times the price. It’s silky & smooth, and gives a very soft glow when it’s applied properly. The trick is knowing how to apply it. The most common mistake people make is using too much product at once - it will end up a cakey, flaky mess. You need way less than you think you do.Because it’s so reasonably priced, I bought two of these; this one (Rose), and the next color up (warm nude). For reference, my skin tone is light with neutral undertones.I’ve been using the following makeup application technique for about 2 years now, and it works every time. Make sure your skin is very well moisturized and/or primed before you start:1. Begin with a brush or makeup sponge, not your fingers. For this product, I use a small concealer brush or an angled makeup sponge (the type with the point to get into corners. You can get one for under $10).2. Swipe the brush lightly over the product, using both sides of the brush. Or, wet your sponge, squeeze really well, & swipe the corner over the product.3. Next, dab your brush or sponge a few times onto the back of your hand to remove excess product. This is called ‘priming’ your makeup & it’s a game-changer - seriously.4. Very lightly dab your brush or sponge along your under-eyes, and into the corners if your black circles extend that far, like mine do. Keep dabbing very gently until the concealer is fully absorbed. Now stop & take a look. Happy with the coverage? Need a bit more? Pick up more of the product from the back of your HAND. Yes, there’s plenty! I promise :).5. For my skin, I like to use this rose color first, let it sit for a minute or so, then I add a layer of the warm nude, using the same technique.Use this exact technique with all your makeup - anything tinted (moisturizer, sunscreen etc), foundation, concealer, eyeshadow, highlighter, blush & bronzer, even your lipstick if you want :) - and your makeup will look flawless. For products in a tube or pump bottle, put a very small amount onto the back of your hand, then prime with your application tool of choice.With foundation in particular, always, always use less than you think you need, and use the priming method every time. Keep repeating the process until you have layered enough to give the coverage you’re looking for. If you’ve done it correctly, the layers are extremely light and therefore actually sink into your skin, as opposed to sitting on top of it. When makeup sits ON your skin, that’s when the dreaded caking & pilling starts 😐. Giving each light layer a minute or so to settle before adding the next one will add a few minutes to your routine, that’s true. But the results will absolutely be worth it.Lastly, if you need your makeup to stay put all day and into the evening, finish with a setting spray. There are plenty on the market but do your research because some of them are just repackaged hair spray 😒. I’ve made that mistake and turned my face into a sticky mess that attracted lint 🤦🏻♀️. I haven’t tried it yet but I’ve read that the RMS Beauty Radiance Lock setting mist is excellent - not sticky at all, and moisturizing as well.Oh, and if you like to finish your face with a powder, prime that well also. Then gently apply to your face using a very light tapping motion.Yikes, long review! I hope this info helps a bit.

Covers dark circles well
This under eye brightener works great for concealing dark circles. It blends well and matches my skin tone well. My only complaint is how it creases. A little goes a long way, and if you set with powder immediately after blending I find that it doesn't crease as bad. I like it and use it under my foundation. Good price for the product as well. It will last a long while.

The only thing that actually WORKS for my dark circles, yo!
I saw this in a Buzzfeed list of best cheap makeup products or something.. I was skeptical but the reviews on here convinced me, and I do not regret my purchase! I have bad dark circles, I suppose my Eastern European heritage and crappy sleep habits are why, and I've tried soooo many concealers, foundations, primers underneath concealers, eye creams, just about everything.. This stuff? It really does help cover my dark circles, dude. I'm amazed. Weirdly, the rose color somehow does match my skin tone! I feared it'd be too pink but nah, it just looks natural. (For reference I'm fairly pale, I can't ever wear anything labeled "beige" or whatever, though I have a lot of freckles that blended together over the years so things called "ivory" don't always work, so it's hard to find anything that matches my skin's exact color!).. Anywho I put this stuff on and sort of just blend it around with my finger, and damned if the dark circles don't pretty much disappear! I don't need to apply anything else, seriously - it legit looks better if I don't then add another product over it! I LOVE this stuff. I just ordered another container bc I'm afraid of running out! And the texture is very nice, smooth.. My under eye area can get a bit dry, some makeup gets cakey there when applied, but not this stuff, it goes on easy and just stays nicely! I'm obsessed with it and the price is amazing.

Won't buy it again
The light color is great on my fair skin. That being said, I won't continue to use it. It leaves the skin super shiny, which enhances puffiness, so I decided to use a translucent powder on top. It looked great...for awhile. After about 30 minutes it was cakey and had worked it's way into all the creases under my eyes. I decided to try it again, this time waiting longer before applying the powder. It made no difference because the product never really dries; it remains tacky, therefore it still gets cakey no mater how long you wait.Judging by some of the customer pictures, some people are happy with the shiny finish, so you must judge for yourself.
