It's terrific! I use it on my eyelids, under my eyes, and here and there where I need it, with the full coverage brush and then I brush it all over, then start with the BM foundation. I abosutely love it!! I wish I'd had it for my wedding.

I'm worried about it looking cakey under my eyes. And does that have a sheen to it like the foundation does? Also, which shade did you get? I'm fairly light foundation.

I use bisque under my eyes and it works really well. I have thin skin under my eyes, so I always have a little darkness under them. It goes on exactly like the foundation....very light, not cakey or anything...works really really well. :yay:

My mother has 60 year old skin under her eyes and what she loves most about BM is that is DOES NOT cake in her crinkles. I agree with K_Jo... hit the dark spots with the bisque and the do the normal applicaition of BM and you will be happy.

Cool...thank you for the input everyone...I'm gonna get some bisque and try it...I just didn't want to waste anymore money. If I didn't have a problem w/ dark circles I would be fine w/ just the foundation.

Also I bought the Clinique High Impact Mascara and it is the bomb diggity :yay:

I almost like it as well as the Lancome Hynose Mascara.

The BM's cover my dark circled eye's very well! I use the flat brush and am very thrilled with it! I've never had anything make my eye's look so normal before :jet:

I need to make a BM purchase soon. I'm out of bisque, so I'll need more, and I'd like to try their clear radiance. I believe my warmth will last for years....

I'm with ya on that. I use way less than they recommend, it still looks like I've never used it. :lol:

Same with the glee (I got the big one), it'll probably outlive me. :lol:

Do you use the mult-tasking minerals under your eyes also? I don't know about you but my dark circles are straight from he11 I tell ya!

I use whatever came in my starter kit :lmao:

I do the all over brush then I take that special flat brush and go to town :yay:

I also pat it on not "paint" it on. I can even cover my Cindy Crawford mole with it if I try :lol:

And the foundation covers the circles ok for you?:shrug: It covers mine some but just not enough.

I don't believe that the starter kit included the "bisque".

The bisque covers the dark circles for me, and then I use the other products on top of that.

Hmmm...which products?

If any of you happen into the Silver Spring area... there is an Ulta Boutique right in the heart of downtown Silver Spring that carries the full line of BM and have most all of it out for you to play with. You can find out exactly what you like and what you don't... this goes for the foundations, the radiance stuff, blushes and tons of liner and eye lid covers... :yay:
