Final Verdict
I love the shade Pearl. It is perfect for brightening under my eye and it’s hard to find a brightening shade when you’re so fair. It blends out easily and when set with powder has minimal creasing. I usually use my Shape Tape mixed with a lighter concealer because the lightest shade is too dark and this is the perfect mixer. I still get full coverage and I get the bright under eye that I love. However, the Colour Pop Concealer works just as well and is much cheaper. I will definitely use this up, but I won’t repurchase.

Clearly, it looks better with my own Brightening Powder Mix which is how I wear it. The translucent powder set it and did the trick, but that combination left my under eye area looking a little dry.

*Brightening Powder Mix is a setting powder cocktail that I made. It’s hard to find brightening powders for fair skin that don’t have a ton of flash back so I did a little mixing and made my own. It’s Makeup Revolution Ghost + J Cat Beauty Porcelain + Essence Brighten Up + Becca Soft Light Blurring in Pink Haze. I had empty Laura Mercier powder jar, so I just starting mixing until I got what I liked. These work so well together, set my concealer, brighten, and minimal creasing. WINNER!
