Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Double Face Perfector Concealer

For those of you not familiar with the makeup scene, you should know that a lot of women strive to find “dupes,” or duplicates, of popular, high end products. This search usually ends up at the drugstore, where you can find low-end knock offs of department store makeup. The Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Double Face Perfector is just such a product, said to be a duplicate for a much-loved facial highlighter with a hefty price tag, relatively speaking for a dark circle concealer. The amazing thing is that people really do love the Maybelline product, especially because its cost is 25% of department store brand.

If you have dark under eye circles, or just need to add a little brightness to your under eye area, Maybelline’s Instant Age Rewind Double Face Perfector is the product for you! This is a double ended product strives to make your face look younger, featuring a concealer on one end and a facial highlighter on the other. The doe foot applicator on the concealer side applies a moisturizing, pigmented skin tone corrector available in 4 shades. Be sure to look for the color guide at your local drugstore, which will help you in matching your skin tone to one of the choices, which include: light, light/medium, medium and dark. Users should be able to find a good match despite the small number of choices. One blog writer the praises of the effectiveness of the product in her review, stating: “For darker under-eye circles, blemishes, or slight discoloration, the lightly moisturizing concealer provides decent coverage without looking cakey or chalky.” *

The concealer side acts more as a corrector, with a slight peachy-pink undertone which helps to counter-act the blue/purple color that many people experience with under eye circles. Yellow based corrector concealers are on their way out, as people have realized that combining the blue of the eye circles with the yellow of the concealer creates green discolorations. Mixing peach or orange tones with purple creates a natural skin tone.

The highlighter side is meant to draw attention to raised areas on the face such as the bridge of the nose, corner of the eye, top of the cheek bone, Cupid’s bow of the lip and the brow bone. Use the soft bristles of the wand to brush on a bit of this light-reflecting formula to give your skin an instant radiance, or glow from within.

The real bargain of this product is that you get two products in one easy to carry package. Another reviewer notes, “Maybelline’s Instant Age Rewind Double Face Protector is both a concealer and a highlighter in one compact, easy to carry pen. I must admit that the first selling point was getting two products for the price of one. Once I tried it, however, the product sold itself. This one really works.”

Dark under eye circles are something that many women deal with on a regular basis. It’s nice to know that finding a solution is as close as the local drugstore, for a far more reasonable price than its high end competitor. *Makeupmoxie **Thebeautybiz
