Hi lovelies back again with a Beauty
review. This time I wanted to do something a little different where I will be
giving you my first impressions of a product. These are the types of posts I get really excited about and love watching beauty vlogs on it as sometimes first impressions can determine how we feel about a product. If you like this style of post let me
know and I will definitely try my up most to jot down my first impressions on all new beauty and
skin care purchases.
Today I am giving you my first
impression on Maybelline Instant Anti Age Eye Eraser in
Nude…………jeez that was a mouthful.
I know you may be thinking why did I get
Nude but for some reason in the UK most stockists only carry two shades with
the other being Light which is too light for me and my brown skin.
Right let’s get on to my first
impressions;
v
I like the
packaging.
v
Looks like you get a
good amount of product for the price.
v
Compact size easily
fits into my makeup bag.
v
The lid pops on and
off securely so no need to worry about the top coming off in your bag.
v
The applicator is a
sponge and seems to be soft to the touch.
v
You twist the top to
get the product out on to the sponge and seems to be a quick and painless process
(not sat there twisting your life away).
v
There is not an
overflow of product that comes out all at once on to the sponge, so it did feel like I had
control on the amount of product that I could use.
v
When applied to skin
it felt very cooling which is nice.
v
It glides on easily
with no effort.
v
It is quite a light
consistency where I am used to my concealers being super pigmented and as soon
as I applied it to my face I can see the colour is way off and is making my skin
look slightly ashy.
v
I can’t see any
initial under eye creases appearing.
v
After applying to my
under eye area I can still see darkness so not convinced it has
made a world of difference….could depend on not having the right shade
though....Mmmm.
So when it comes to finding the right
concealer for me I am in need of a product that is going to hide those pesky
dark circles under my eyes and this product unfortunately does not cut it. I’m
sure it would be a great product for someone who is of fairer complexion to me,
does not suffer with darkness under the eyes and maybe on the lookout for an affordable
under eye highlight.
If you have tried this product and currently using it I would love to hear your thoughts on it. Oh and if you have tried any of the other shades maybe more for brown skin please share in the comments below.
Till Next Time
