Hi Guys,

So I finally bought banana powder, but am still unsure how to achieve that white under eye look.

I even tried it with a damp sponge and it kind of clumped on my face. I put it on top of concealer but it still seems yellow to me.

Any tips?

I put it under my eyes heavily with a puff then knocked the excess powder of With a brush but it seemed a bit cakey I don't know maybe I need a softer better brush if like help to :(

Yeah don't get your powder wet at all! use a powder puff and apply under the eyes by patting it then use a soft small powder brush and use it to brush off excess powder and really blend the powder in with small swirling motions, the more blended into your skin it is the better it will look and blend well into your skintone instead of being a harsh contrast. blending can make all the difference :-) if you find it still is way too yellow then to not waste it mix some with a translucent powder to cancel out some of the yellow.

I use banana powder everyday when I highlight my face. I put concealer 2 shades lighter under my eyes, down the bridge of my nose, cupids bow & chin. I blend out the concealer using either my finger, a brush or my beauty blender (it has to be damp) then I apply my banana powder. I find that it works better for me if I use it with my damp beauty blender. I pat my sponge into the banana powder & apply it to the areas I concealed. Let it sit for a few minutes then brush off the access. If you still find it to be too yellow, you may just need to use a translucent powder.

You don't want to use it wet (though there are creams, which you would mix with a liquid foundation), and mix it with something (for instance a setting powder). Also, banana powder is used for a glow, so there will be yellow to it, it isn't a highlighter.

So you can only use this under you eyes? Can't you lightly use it on your hole face?
