Hey guys,

I've been using the BE foudation for about 6 weeks. Tried it out based on the reviews on this BB. I really like it. Very easy to apply. I'm a medium and have gotten a good match by mixing both the shades that came in that kit.

I have been using the foundation on my concealer brush and applying that under my eyes. Works OK---but am wondering if bisque and/or well-rested might be better. My pet peeve is when it looks all "cakey" under my eyes---so I want something that you can use with a really light hand---if that makes sense. I don't want it to look "bright" under my eyes---just want to tone down the blue/grey under there. Make sense?

What do you like to use in the under eye area?

Thanks in advance,
-Shannon

Is there any possibility of you trying them both at a store that carries them?

I have and use both. The bisque is a more skin toned shade -- a fair, pinky beige (less fair and link for the summer bisque). The well rested is a more pale yellowish. The bisque will conceal a bit more than the foundation and works as a general concealer for other areas. The well rested seems to cancel out the dark circle bluish more. If your circles are darker, you may want to try it.

You can get samples for $3.50 each at www.colorfulsprinkles.com (the sizes look small, but the powder lasts a long time) When I first got started with BE, someone on this board directed me to this site. I liked being able to sample both of the concealer colors. I have really light skin. I also use the foundation powder and dab it under my eyes sometimes. I've learned to apply it very lightly and just reapply if I need extra instead of caking extra on at first. I have dark circles, too.
