Benefit Powderflauge Bargain & a question!

Ivory_Tinkler

There are some Benefit things on magicmakeup (some sold out ) but I've spotted this undereye concealer - it's a powder and I wondered if anyone has used it as I can't see how a powder can cover dark circles?

It's £11.99 instead of £19.50 but before I part with hard earned dosh, has anyone tried it?

To banish dark circles would be a dream come true!

P&P £2.95 but free if you spend over £50.

Thanks for that but I had to watch it twice as I was laughing the first time. I can't believe that people actually make video's for youtube like that - I thought it was just music and tv stuff - hmmmm think I need to bring myself into the 21st century

I watch them ALOT as i buy and sell make up so i sort of need to know about products.
People do take their videos way too seriously tho and lots make me cringe too!

Do you mean there are some worse than that one? I'll have to start watching for reviews - I just never even thought to look on Youtube (I'll be up now till about 3am watching complete silliness I bet!)

And the comments are even worse normally! Most of girls/women saying how beautiful the person in when most the time they look awful!

Happy watching. Youll be hooked i bet.

I think I tried it instore and wasn't impressed enough to buy it. I've got Benefit's 'Boing' concealer, but it's too dry to spread well I find.

Elsewhere on MSE, loads of people swear by Aldi's concealer pen, similar to Touche Eclat, called Lacuna. From memory, it's less than £3, so you haven't wasted too much if you don't like it!

The Asda concelaer pen is lovely too, £4 I think.

I am a 'powderflage' devotee!
I really like it, and a little goes a long, long way.
I tend not to put it on the inner corner of my undereye area as it can be a bit dry, just out towards the top of my cheekbones. It's great for hiding flaws at the creases of your mouth and forehead too
The only one downside, as with all light reflecting concealers is that in photos taken with a flash it looks like you have white paint under your eyes! You can see this in lots of paparazzi photos of celebs, you always know who's wearing Touch Eclat!

*edit, Stila's Illuminating Concealer is half price on that site too. It's a fantastic concealer also
