Hi, all..
Remind me again why we all have to take extra care when it comes to covering the under eye area? Yup, it could be a little gray-ish, or even worse, a whitecast. I swear, you don't want that to happen. Another worst scenario probably, your under eye products could flaunt your dark circle or showing your fine lines. Well, in case of that i have found a product that making a buzz lately. Let me introduce you to Ben Nye Banana Powder

The powder is very smooth, have a yellow hint and it suit my skin tone very well. Since it's almost doesn't show on my skin, i asked my friend to model and borrowed his hand who has a darker skin tone than mine so you can see these soft powder :)
how
Use banana powder after applying foundation & concealer, right before contouring and powdering

opinion
I personally think that this product is very great, especially for you who has a problem with under eye circle. If you haven't try this, you probably should. The price is quite affordable. It's $12 for 1,5 oz. In Indonesia you can have it around IDR140-300rb the prices are different depending on which online shop you are looking to.
I am applying a very thin layer of foundation too before using this banana. After applying banana powder, you need to set your face with loose powder or compact powder yet again. But, you only need a tinsy bit of it. Because the banana powder already did a marvelous job on the coverage thingy.
I suggest you to wear this on a special occasion or maybe a night out event, because the glow it gives you create this very glowy polished look and i think it doesn't suit casual day occasion. But, once again, it's up to you :D

The
staying power is very good. Later that day, i took photos with my camera
phone and i still have that subtle glowing on my face. It's been hours and i don't see any fine lines, smudging or any grossness on my face! I'm one happy customer :D
