Maybelline the eraser (eye)- REVIEW.

After all of the hype I heard about this concealer when it was first launched in America, I placed it high on my hit list when it arrived in the Uk. Maybelline are definitely a drugstore company which i'm a big fan of. Their dream-lumi touch concealer is superb (review coming soon!), I love their mascara's and the vivid lipsticks they've recently released have grown on me too.







This on the other hand, hasn't amazed, astounded, or made me over the moon. Let's start with the packaging, it's nice enough and small enough for your handbag. My only issue is the lid, if you do keep it in your handbag you may end up with a concealer covered bag, I can not get the lid to stay on for longer than a few hours in my bag ( although my bag does get bit of a bashing I must say.)




The actual spongey bit on the top of the concealer is slightly scary for the hygiene freak inside me, but I can deal with it considering I only apply it under my eyes (and not on blemishes.) It takes ages to twist it the first time you open the product, just a heads up because I actually thought I'd broken mine, haha.


The concealer is light (almost pointless if you have dark circles) and transfers far too easily for me to enjoy using it. By the time I've applied it and blended it slightly you can barely tell a difference especially if I haven't had a lot of sleep. I must say it is refreshing to apply because it is a watery consistency. If you want something light, something good for summer then this is for you! If you need heavy coverage then I wouldn't bother purchasing this concealer. But overall I don't regret buying it, considering I've wanted to try it for ages! And it is good for minimal make up days. You can get it here.



(This is 2/3 layers, unblended.)


Have you tried it? What do you think? Cam xxxx
