Left Tor Right: Medium And Neutralizer |
Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles Concealer ($9.99) is a super-concentrated and pigmented liquid concealer combined with goji berry and haloxyl to help erase the appearance of dark circles and puffiness around the eyes. It has a unique tube design in that when you twist the top, product will be released in the round, squishy applicator sponge.
Available in (6) shades: Fair, Light, Medium, Honey, Neutralizer and Brightener. Although the neutralizer shade can be used on it’s own, it’s also recommended for extreme dark circles to apply underneath your regular concealer for maximum coverage. The brightener shade is pink based used to brighten up areas of the eyes and face. Neutralizer is a light peachy yellow color. It applys slightly lighter than it looks in the tube, but works amazing when blended with the concealer on top.The medium shade is the best match for me.
You have to twist the tube several times to get it going at first and thereafter a small amount is dispersed with each twist. You can apply it to your undereyes with the sponge directly, or you can wipe the product off with your finger to apply or wipe the product off with a concealer brush. I like using it directly from the tube.
Overall, I love this concealer as the coverage is very good and I think it’s just an overall great product. I love the little sponge and although it might not be so hygienic. I wish the product itself was a little creamier and had a more natural finish. But I still think from the many drugstore concealers I’ve tried, this is one of the better ones. I think it’s also a good concealer if you’re going for the light under eye/Kim K. concealer look. I find that it holds up really well throughout the day without fading which is my favorite part about it.
The Conclusion:
Pros:
- Great high medium to full coverage
- Easy to apply
- Highlights and brightens the under-eyes
- Blends well
- Lightweight – doesn’t look or feel heavy
- Lasts all day without creasing
Cons:
- Can have the tendency to look dry under the eyes – make sure to moisturize prior. Because of this, it might not work the best for those with very dry under eyes or for those with lots of fine lines. (Results will of course vary though!)
- Sets quickly and after it sets it can be difficult to work with
- Not the best color selection, especially for those with dark skin
- The sponge applicator isn’t completely hygienic and it can be difficult to clean
