One of the best ways to refresh your look and make you appear wide awake is to illuminate your under-eye area.

Before I used to use a pink primer from Becca and it might have been awesome in all the respects if not only creased from time to time. It used to illuminate my under eye skin, it went really far and could be also used as a highlighter.

Today I want to tell you about an Illuminating Eye Primer from Amazing Cosmetics.

Packaging: It’s a soft tube that houses 7.4ml of the product. The nozzle is rather thick and it’s good to dispense the product. Nothing leaks out or anything.

The color line up is formed by 3 shades. Mine is called Warm Peach and it’s the best for canceling out dark under-eye circles. It’s coral-peach in color. This is that very shade that is able to cancel out dark pigments.

The texture is thick and unscented.

 

Impressions from use

This primer is really well pigmented and I need just the tiniest drop of it. After application, I drag it with a brush or else there will be too much on my under eye skin which would be impossible to hide even with the thickest concealer ever.

Thanks to its shade, the product nicely covers up my under eye dark pigments and then sets and never creases even when I pat my concealer on top of it.

I’m more into a delicate illuminating effect, so I find this product containing too much shimmer to it.

With a concealer on top of it (the illumination finish is still there):

The product doesn’t affect the wear time of my concealer at all. Yet, I still want to recommend setting it with a powder anyway.

 

Overall thoughts: It’s a good product for color correction and rather questionable as an under-eye skin illuminator.

Price: $24.00
