For some time now, pink under-eye has been everywhere. We see it in the freshest complexion routines of the moment, those which give a more awake look, a softer complexion and that famous doll effect that changes everything. The thing is, the most desired dewy loose powders often cost close to $40. So when a pink loose powder for $14.90 promises a luminous, blurred and mattified finish, it inevitably attracts attention.
The Fit Me Loose Powder in Brightening Pink definitely has that little air of a clever dupe. We’re not talking about an exact copy, but the idea is there: a dewy loose powder that fixes concealer, softens the under-eye area and gives that much-desired fresh finish. Its shade is a little more salmon than cooler pinks, making it easy to wear every day.
A loose pink powder that blurs the eyes without weighing down the complexion
Fit Me pink loose powder sets makeup while maintaining a luminous finish. Its formula contains radiant, blurring pigments, perfect for visually smoothing the skin. Under the eye, it helps to set concealer, soften small shadows and give a sharper look. The eyes appear fresher, without this too white or too powdery effect which can quickly harden the features.
The Brightening Pink shade is the real deal. It leaves a soft pink veil, almost salmon, which illuminates the underside of the eye without being too visible. This is exactly what we like about the current trend: a fresh complexion, an awakened look, a subtle baby doll effect. The powder also remains interesting on the T zone, especially if the skin shines quickly. It mattifies, sets and helps makeup hold better during the day.
The application should remain light. Finish your makeup, then place a small amount of loose pink powder under the eye or on the T zone. It is best to work with a fine puff or a small precise brush. A thin layer is enough to fix and smooth. If you use too much, the result can become drier, especially around the eye area. The secret is really the dosage.
What is pink loose powder used for?
A pink loose powder is used to set makeup while adding a luminous effect to the complexion. Under the eye, it helps soften the appearance of dark circles and make the eyes look fresher. The pink shade provides subtle correction, very pretty on fair skin. It also gives this slightly doll-like effect, very trendy at the moment. The Maybelline Fit Me Loose Powder in Brightening Pink allows you to create this look without overloading your makeup.
Is Maybelline pink loose powder suitable for oily skin?
Yes, this pink loose powder is suitable for normal to oily skin. Its formula has a mattifying action for up to 16 hours, which helps limit shine during the day. It can be applied to the T zone, but also under the eye to fix concealer. On oily skin, it helps keep a clearer complexion. You simply have to apply it in a thin layer to maintain a luminous finish and avoid the overly powdery effect.
Is Brightening Pink really pink?
The Brightening Pink shade is a soft pink loose powder, with a slightly salmon undertone. It is not candy pink once applied to the skin. Its purpose is rather to illuminate the underside of the eye and to give a fresher effect to makeup. On fair skin, the result can be very flattering. On darker skin tones, it is better to test the shade or switch to a more suitable shade.
