Set It Bright Correcting & Brightening Setting Powder
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
e.l.f. Cosmetics Set It Bright Correcting & Brightening Setting Powder is a finely milled, lightweight powder that sets makeup without looking cakey or overly matte, according to several creators. Former professional wedding makeup artist Morgan Turner calls it "one of the best drugstore powders on the market" for its blurring effect, especially on mature skin. The pink shade is favored for under-eyes, though one creator notes it isn't super brightening on her.
