Maybelline: Instant Anti Age Perfector 4-in-1 review

I bought this out of pure curiosity because like many times, the description of the product sounded just perfect. But is it? Let’s find out together!


So this is Instant Anti Age Perfector 4-in-1 by Maybelline (Instant Age Rewind on the US market), I got it in shade 02 light/medium. As you may assume from the title, this product is supposed to provide you with 4 crucial benefits: blurring, concealing, evening skin tone, and mattifying.


When I first applied it I was literally scared because this shade looked super dark and orange, but that went away as soon as I blended it into my skin. Theese shades are self-adjusting and they blend in seamlessly. I just used my fingers and was done in no time.

It instantly provided me mat finish and some blurring effect, it felt like BB cream mixed with a mattifying primer. The coverage is really light and looks natural. It is like a better, perfected version of your own skin.


The texture is interesting, it’s a mousse, similar to those jar foundations that Maybelline used to make approx. in the early 2000s. It is funny, because the tube feels so light like it is almost empty.

This blurring/mattifying effect lasts for a few hours on my oily skin, so I’ m am quite happy about that. During the summer I will probably also use a setting powder, now I’ve only worn it alone.

Honestly, my expectations were a bit lower, but I am frequently surprised with these drugstore options.

If you are looking for something affordable, easy to use, something that will perfect your skin and still gave you a natural look, then you should try it.

Wishes

  It is time for another wish list or as I like to say it – things that recently caught my attention. Honestly, this is just a small fraction, but I’m too embarrassed to everything out there. The center of the list represents a linen lounge shirt from Intimissimi . I bought one last year and I am super pleased with it. It keeps me cool during these crazy tropical nights and feels very comfortable. I also very much enjoy their silk shirts, but the buttons are simply too annoying sometimes … Now, let’s go up and right to Dior. Another blush? Yes, please! Dior yet again reformulated their famous Backstage Rosy Glow blushes and added some new shades. I always desperately wanted to buy the lavender one, but it was not available in our country. But now something completely different caught my attention – muted, peachy, beige shade – Toffee . I swatched it already and it is pretty, but packed with gold glitter, so I need to try it again to be fully convinced. Smooth&Glow...

Dior Forever Glow Maximizer - Peachy

Apparently this year I have been obsessed with highlighters and blushes because it is time to review another one – Forever Glow Maximizer by Dior in the shade PEACHY. If the Star Glow Filter is very subtle, this is not. It is not tacky and can be beautifully blended, but it’s a real highlighter that serves its purpose. Peachy – light, golden peach with gold and pink shimmer. On my light skin tone, I often wear this as a blush, because I think it works better on me like this. It gives that slight amount of warmth to my face and a subtle golden sheen. It can be built up, but it can also look too much. Now when I’m getting a bit darker I love to put it on top of my bronzer or/and use it as an eyeshadow to achieve a light monochromatic summer look.  Indoor light Sunlight This is a great and versatile product, but I still prefer powder versions of Dior highlighters, they are just easier to work with and blend more effortlessly. I think that with liquid highlighters you always need to be...
