Actually, I really enjoy the fun clicking sound when I twist and use the refill.

It's hard to expect outstanding coverage.
If you like to heavily apply highlighter, I wouldn't recommend this.

The sunken areas are naturally and brightly covered.
It can be applied to the areas where I want to create a three-dimensional effect, but personally, I don't like heavy makeup, so I like the natural-looking finish.

프렙+프라임 하이라이터 [래디언트로즈]

Doesn't it mean it doesn't provide 100% coverage?
That the opening gets a little dirtier?
It comes out a little bit each time you turn it, but if a lot comes out, the amount adjustment for the eye skin might be ambiguous, I'm not sure if it's a major downside or not.

1. It has a thin, fine-grained, and transparent feel, so it doesn't look like it's been applied.
In other words, it doesn't look thick and doesn't settle into wrinkles.

2. The color is optimal for dark circles.

+ To be honest, I'm not sure of any downsides. MAC cosmetics are famous, and this product was one of my favorites among the MAC products I've used.

+ This product seems to have been used for a long time. It's a highlighter, but I don't use it as a highlighter, and instead use it as a concealer.

+ I use foundation in shade 17 or so, and this color matches me well.

+ Looking at the photo, I was worried because there was a reddish blemish under my eyes, but after using this a few times, it covered it well.

+ It's in a brush form, so it doesn't get on my hands, and just a quick swipe is enough to cover things, so it's very convenient to use.

It's difficult to control the amount, and it's a bit lacking to use as a highlighter.

It applies nicely, blending thinly and naturally. It doesn't look dull, and my face appears more dimensional.

I have relatively fair skin
But for those with darker complexions,
It might not show up as much.

It has a subtle glow
And when you apply highlighter on top of it,
It sticks on so perfectly!!

After my base, I apply this to my dark circles five times with a brush, then dab it in with my fingers or a sponge. After that, I use the Cha & Park Propolis Cushion in shade 21 to cover my whole face! The dark circles completely disappear!

The only downside is that it's a bit pricey? Other than that, there's not much else I can complain about.

This covers my dark circles. It's a bit dry, so the store recommended this over a concealer.

It's sometimes a hassle to twist the cap off, so my hand doesn't reach for it as often..

It seems to be a great product for color correction and as a highlighter! If you want a natural-looking highlighter, just apply it to the desired areas and it'll make you look gorgeous...

Twist it twice, apply it once directly on the dark circles and once right below, then twist it twice again and apply it on the T-zone, lightly patting with a puff to add dimension.

The product comes out when you twist it, so if you twist it too much, you have to use it all up, which leaves you in an awkward situation of having to use it or throw it away... And the application area is quite narrow.

It's really great to apply it on areas with darkening like dark circles, and it seems to be more moisturizing and not flaky than expected. When I usually apply highlighter, I'm always worried about it looking obvious, but that didn't seem to be the case with this product.

Gently dab a small amount on the tip of the nose, forehead, front of the cheeks, and chin, then use a puff to blend for brightened coverage of any uneven areas.

I didn't realize there were major issues since I haven't had major breakouts, but the ingredients seem to be the worst among the products I've seen... Boo hoo. Other than the ingredients, I really like it...

The pink base makes the skin look brighter and the coverage is great when applied to the nose, cheeks, and under-eye area! I've been using it for several refills now, and while I don't expect it to perform like a perfect highlighter, it's great if you're looking for an easy-to-use product that provides a combined effect of a highlighter, cushion, or concealer.


According to the MAC store staff, you can also use the dark circle concealer as an eye brightener before application.

It's drying. The highlighted areas became dry, so I stopped using it.

The good thing is that it's a liquid type, so it looks very natural.
I think those who don't like pearl finishes would prefer this.

When you turn the dial, the product comes out, but the amount can't be controlled.. If you turn it a few times because it's not coming out, a huge amount suddenly comes out...

It's great to carry around and use with a quick swipe of the finger. It also has a volumizing effect when applied to sunken areas like laugh lines. I would repurchase it. But lately, for some reason, I don't reach for this product as often.
