Happy December! I can’t believe there’s only 24 more days until Christmas. I hope to show off some great holiday finds this month but first let’s cover those dark circles!
When you’re over 40 covering dark circles is a must and being that I have fair skin I often look like part of the cast of The Walking Dead without a good under eye concealer. I just found the Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Treatment for Dark Circles and I’m in love with this formula!
What’s to love?
First, I am such a package geek and the Instant Age Eraser looks like something out of Star Wars. There is a clear hard plastic tube that holds the concealer and a half-round puff at the top to apply.
Now I have to say that it took me a few minutes to figure this out. You need to twist the red band (it will click) to get the product flowing out of the top.
I picked the Fair (110) shade and it matches my skin perfectly. I just used the stick like a marker under my eyes and blended a bit with my finger for the perfect coverage. I was thrilled with the results.
According to Maybelline the product is “infused with goji berry and collagen to tighten and improve skin elasticity.” and I have to say that my skin did feel tighter after application.
The product has very little scent and feels like a high-end brand to me. It’s Made In Canada.
I got my stick for $6.79 at Target which is a great price. My only concern with this product is that you probably have to replace it every month or so because of the fluffy tip which is fine because it’s not very expensive. Maybelline does state that it’s got an anti-microbial system to which is good.
Overall I am very happy with this stick and would purchase it again.
Also check out my Over 40 5-Minute Makeover Challenge on YouTube. I use the Maybelline Age Rewind as part of my routine.
The shade brightening is my favorite! I rip off the sponge tip so it just dispenses without a sponge. Highly recommend that method.
Good idea, thanks!
I love this concealer as it does work well but I feel like it’s soooo hyped up! Great review!
This is great to know thanks! I’m always iffy about drug store products because I can’t test them to see how they look on my skin.
Love this concealer ! Maybelline concealers are the best at the drugstore. i also love the fit me one! amazing and really very affordable

I just ordered the Fit Me from Target! Can’t wait to try it.
this is my favourite under eye concealer now – it’s so good for a drugstore brand!

This is my favourite concealer ever!! ❤
Too bad that there’s only two shades!
I have mine in shade light and I love this thing. It is perfect for the price. Just love it. Nice post ❤
I just bought this two days back and have been loving it! However I find it really tricky to use it with the applicator alone. Do you use a brush/sponge to blend the product? I tried a damp Real techniques sponge but the sponge drinks up most of the concealer and I hate the drag when using brushes, maybe I’m using the wrong brush. My last tool – my finger- blends well but takes way too long.
I just use my finger to blend. I mostly use it under my eyes : )
