On each use, it is difficult to tell how much concealer you are releasing into the sponge tip too so this must also contribute to the wastage. On the first use, you need to twist the collar of the applicator so many times to release the concealer, I honestly thought I had a faulty product. The best part of the package is that it is an airless pump so that each twist of the applicator head wipes down the side of the tube completely and eliminates waste. This is very easy to see through it's transparent tube. The liquid is also very thin and I found it very difficult to build up coverage so I would end up using more than usual. The sponge tip is so large it is difficult to apply small spot applications. It's packaged in a clear tube with quite a large sponge-tip applicator which is not very hygienic. I have a love-hate relationship with the packaging. It promises to instantly erase dark circles and fine lines and infused with goji berry (for its anti-oxidant properties?). I purchased the Maybelline Age Rewind concealer based on the rave reviews but was surprisingly disappointed. Overall this is definitely a holy-grail concealing and highlighting product at an excellent price point that I recommend for ageing, combination skin. The product continues to seep out for a while after you twist the tube so it can be messy The sponge applicator is not great but can be removed and/or the product applied with a brush. Doubles up as an eyeshadow primer that covers darkness/veins on eyelids Effectively covers darkness and eye-bag shadows Does not settle into fine lines and wrinkles Smooth, highly pigmented and creamy liquid I've been using this product so long now I have it down to a fine art! I have also completely removed the sponge before and just used a brush which works too.


The sponge applicator on the top isn't really that useful though and I would think it is a bit cumbersome and anti-hygenic - I twist the tube only once per application and use a small concealer brush to pick the product up from the sponge for a more precise application. It does not dry out or become cakey under the eyes nor does it settle into fine lines like so many other concealers. Then I use a light application of the medium shade over the top under the eyes to help blend and down the bridge of my nose, followed by a light dusting of finishing powder. I use the light in my tear-trough, the outer corners of my eyes, between my brows and on top of my cheek bones. I use it in 2 shades - both light and medium - and I use both in the one application to achieve the results that I want. A truly multi-tasking work horse in my makeup collection! I have repurchased this more times than I can remember. Not only does it effectively conceal any shadows and discolouration under my eyes but it also is really effective as an eyeshadow primer as well as a cream highlighter.
