They actually already made a foundation for the concealer a long time ago. This is something totally different. I’m not trying to be rude I promise. You just aren’t using it the way they intended.
Well, since y'all are SOOOOO much smarter, why don't you have RU-vid channels with videos we can critique??? Hmmmmmm???? Where are your channels, let's all go comment on your videos like asshats......wait.....don't have a channel????? Figures, friggin' know it alls🙄 #meangirlssuck
I feel like you probably already know this isn't a foundation after all these comments, so I vote for a new video of retrying the product as a highlighter. I also give you credit for obviously not looking at other reviews before trying.
With all due respect, in your other videos, I saw a tendency to use way more product than needed. Same for this one. Yet this particular product looks very natural and not cakey.
Also smashing, rough swirling and dragging the foundation brush or sponge into the face isn't a good idea either while trying to achieve a flawless finish when applying any foundation or product such as this one either.
It's because she doesn't take care of her skin properly to start with! If you DON'T care about YOUR SKIN then NOTHING you use is going to look GOOD 😂! And She also DOESN'T know HOW to use Makeup properly, and that is VERY clear! I only watch Her videos to have a good laugh 😅! Because I am a professional Makeup artist, so for ME this is HILARIOUS 😂 😂!!!
Cassie, I'm pretty sure this isn't a foundation. This seems like a comparable item to Auric Glow Lust and Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter. And as for Maybelline having foundation with a sponge on top like the concealer...I remember buying that years ago. They might even still sell it. I would love to see you try this again as a primer/natural highlighter. I'm very curious how it would differ in that capacity.
They do still sell it... I saw the age rewind regular recently and was hesitant to purchase since I have seen no one use it or review it. This one is almost like a glowy Tinted moisturizers which probably explains they lack of shades from all ive seen... lack of shades in these products seems a downward trend.
I think that others have been finding it to be a dupe for the charlotte tillbury flawless filter. That maybe the reason that you think it’s more like a ‘highlighter face’. LOL Maybe try it under your usual foundation?
Why do you always use obviously light coverage foundations/BB creams/etc like you would a full coverage formula? Usually if it's meant to be light/natural coverage, if you try to apply too much, it will always end up badly... Also...BB creams and primers (which is what this is) does NOT need an extensive shade range. It covered the basics just fine with the 5 provided. It's supposed to be light coverage enough that it will automatically blend into your skin tone (they had it right). If you used it as intended, you'd agree with that...
I don’t think you will ever like a skin tint or BB cream because of the state of your skin. Shame because a break from the layers of foundation you normally wear would probably do it some good.
I personally love these sort of products all over the face as a glowy sheer layer and then still concealing and powdering places that need coverage or to be toned down. With a cream blush on top it looks so fresh faced. But not everyone's cup of tea.
It isn't a foundation (thus the limited shades...it is offered in tones.) You totally lost the plot with this product. It's a dupe for Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter.
Stop being so mad about everything. Maybelline literally says it's a 4-1 (primer, concealer, bb cream, highliter all in one step). They are saying this will provide a light coverage because it's a do it all product, and obviously people are reviewing it like a light coverage dewy foundation because that's how it's supposed to be used. Cassie used it correctly and she just didn't like it.
Whoa what are you doing? This is not a foundation. And no the sponge top is not supposed to be used to blend in this product, it is strictly used to dispense the product on your face. They have concealer, foundation and now this perfector(face glow, highlighter)in the Age Rewind collection. Research, research, research.🧐
I dont think this is meant to be a foundation. I think its supposed to be similar to the Charlotte Tillbury flawless face fliter or the Auric glow lust.
People use bb creams like light coverage foundations. Bb creams offer sheer coverage and conceal minor blemishes but they are still supposed to look more natural.
Just looked at the ulta site, and this looks to be a primer/highlighter, not a foundation. It repeatedly mentions light coverage, that matches to your skin tone. I'm going to try it as a dupe for hollywood flawless filter. You might want to try it again.
it is marketed as a a primer and highlighter, yes, but also a BB Cream. Maybelline markets this as a stand-alone product, not as something that requires foundation to be used on top of. They literally have this listed under the "foundation" tab of their website.... I used it like they said it was meant to be used 🤷
@@CG-vq9mj the word foundation is nowhere to be found in the product name or description on Maybelline or Ulta's site...I don't know why she put that in the title
I have 2 thoughts: 1. Maybelline really messed up on the positioning of this product. I immediately knew they were going for the Hollywood Flawless filter alternative. By calling it foundation+concealaer they really confused a ton of people. I don't have oily skin and originally love Charlotte Tillbury products and this one became one of my favorites as well. It is perfect as a sheer wash of glow on my face when I'm not wearing any makeup. It also looks pretty patted on top of the foundation. If they would call it a "glow perfector" or something, I think that would work out much better in the long run. 2. I've watched your videos for many years now and I really feel like you are not the right person to give opinionated results on any sort of "glow" or "light coverage" face products. In my opinion, you seem to like heavier coverage (med-full), a matte finish, and a long-lasting ability. I feel like you don't like most of the light coverage products for the same reasons (gets oily, wipes off etc.) but that is how any light product will behave on oily skin (I know - I used to have one lol). My skin is fairly clear and dry now and I know that I will despise ANY heavy coverage foundation on me - simply because that is not what my skin is compatible with. Obviously, you can try whatever you want and feel any way about it (please don't see my comment as hate - more as food for thought). I just feel that any time I see you posting a review of a glowy product I know what you will say.
I'm just giving my opinions based on my personal experience with a product.... I don't see your comment as hateful, just a touch confusing since I've tried and loved 'glow' marketed products in the past (i.e. the Urban Decay Glowy Tinted Hydrator); I like testing all kinds of foundations because sometimes the ones that seem 'bad for me/my skin' end up surprising and delighting me :)
This is more meant to be a dupe for Charlotte Tilbury flawless filter! You should try a follow up video where you use it the same as others use the CT product and see if it changes your mind!
This is why I don’t actually rely on your videos for actual product opinion and simply watch you for YOU as a person: BB creams DONT NEED a “shade range” to satisfy every “shade range warrior”. It’s a BB cream. It blends to match your skin tone. Hence THEM MENTIONING BLENDING INTO SKIN TONE... lawd have mercy... 😩
Exactly. So tired of these "need 50 shade range in EVERYTHING " people, yet are usually the same ones bitching about the earth and landfills. 🙄 Thank you for your bluntness, it needs to be said!
The age rewind foundation a is a totally different product than this. This is not meant to be foundation, it's meant to be something you wear for light coverage or under makeup. The actual foundation has a real shade range.
Maybelline literally includes this product on their "foundation" page online.... I don't know how they would expect the average consumer to know that something they market as a BB Cream/stand-alone face makeup product is actually meant to be used as a completely different product (as a primer under foundation)?
@@thriftthick It really only takes a small amount of research. This product is a dupe (and from what I've seen all over YT and TT a pretty good one) for the Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter. I've seen many people review this product on both platforms and it's gotten excellent reviews. Not one of the people I've seen review this product has had the misconception that this is somehow a foundation, and most actually say 'You can wear this alone or under your makeup for an added glow'.
where did they get that information from? Because nowhere on Maybelline or Ulta's website does it say that this is meant to be used under foundation for an added glow.
It’s not a foundation. On any website it never claims to be. You’re using it wrong which is why you don’t like it. Maybe try it for it’s intended use or research it a little more before you put a bad review out there.
Maybelline literally says it's a 4-1 (primer, concealer, bb cream, highliter all in one step). They are saying this will provide a light coverage because it's a do it all product, and obviously people are reviewing it like a light coverage foundation. Cassie used it correctly but she didn't like it. Maybe research before commenting.
They had a foundation with Instant Age Rewind a while back. This is supposed to be Maybelline’s version of the Hollywood Flawless Filter by CT. I still love the concealer btw, so easy to use.
I was so confused after watching your review! This product isn't actually labelled as a foundation, but as a perfector that acts as a primer, concealer, highlighter and BB cream, all in one. A BB cream is somewhere between a moisturizer, and a foundation, and is defined as a beauty, or blemish balm. They usually contain antioxidants, a broad spectrum SPF, brightening agents, etc., that are meant to treat the skin while providing an overall, even glow. Likely, this perfector that you tested is not a foundation at all, Cassie, but it is a product that can better prepare the skin prior to the application of an additional foundation! That would help to explain why there were only five shades available, and why it provided significant glow to the skin. Charlotte Tilbury has a similar product, I believe. It would be interesting to see how it performs under a separate foundation application, but I don't think it should be considered as an actual foundation, itself. Canadian hugs, Cassie, Sherrey💕
There’s an actual foundation in this line too. The age rewind eraser treatment makeup and it’s really good. Not sure why she thought this was the only “foundation” in this line? It’s on their website and it’s been at walmart/target for several years.
@@thelastnashie8811 Thanks for letting me know! I wasn't aware there was already a foundation in this line; I've only really used their brightener under my eyes, and their Fit Me concealer a number of years ago. Have a lovely week, Sherrey🎀
@@timothysherreyehler5095 no problem. They did a crappy marketing job with it IMO. I found it by accident one day a few years ago and had never even heard about it before.
So I might be wrong but I don’t think they made this product to use necessarily as a foundation (hence the 5 shades) but it’s supposed to more kinda dupe the CT Flawless Filter and is used more as a glowy primer, base or highlight. Or that’s what I saw on Trend Moods post about it anyways. I know Maybelline does already have an instant age rewind foundation that comes in the same type of packaging as the concealers. 😊
hahah I'm so confused.... Maybelline didn't include anything about using this under an additional product (foundation) so I don't know how I was supposed to know any better 😂
@@thriftthick I totally get ya, I've seen people reviewing it as so many different products. I feel like Maybelline just put it out and said "Here's a thing...you guys decide what it is because we don't know." 😂
@@jxc3527 idk about Trendmood but Steffsbeautystash tried it as foundation and bronzer and looked beautiful on her oily skin. If you check her out tell her I sent ya. She's amazing in addition to Cassie! I'll be reviewing it on my oily dehydrated skin so wish me luck lol 🤣
@@jxc3527 oh thank you! I'm actually in my 30s so don't let my baby face fool ya! 😂 I am just getting started so hope to have this one up soon! It's nice finding others with similar skin tones for sure! Have a great day or night 🥰
Yeah this isn't actually a foundation. Its a dupe for the CT Flawless Filter. I love that stuff, so I will try this. Try it under your makeup or you can use it as a highlighter. But you should try it again.
C'mon. Maybelline is better than this and you know it. First, both times you applied a TON of product right off the bat. There's a reason it comes in five shades, and it's probably meant to be a BB or CC cream. IT Cosmetics comes in limited shades and everyone is fine with that. And then I remember why I unsubscribed to your channel and only drop by once in a while. No offense just being honest.
You slathered that product on. I feel like you sabatoge these demos on purpose. Why? This is an ongoing pattern on your channel. negative and derogatory and a part of your personality. Just wondering why? Also, had you been drinking at the the end of the review? I also don't understand why you would film under the influence.
Just wondering why you’re here watching then if all you’re going to do is criticize? Way to spend your time just putting negativity out into the world. She gets so much hate and it’s really sad.
They made this for someone like me who loves the Charlotte tilbury Hollywood filter 🤗 I loveeee this for a no makeup look with a touch of powder and mascara or underneath my makeup it acts just like the Hollywood filter IMO I’m using it everyday but I’m not oily I’m combo so yeah I love it 🥰
This is meant as constructive criticism- as someone who makes a living doing these review videos it would be great if you actually researched a product before you make a vid like this. Its not meant to be a foundation, so you testing it as one literally makes no sense. A quick google or youtube search would have told you that...
I research the product 'minimally' (only reading the website's description and some of the reviews underneath) so that I don't go into a review with any biases as to how a product will or won't work for me. Nowhere on Maybelline or Ulta's website did this get marketed as something that requires a foundation on top of it in order to be worn 'correctly'; it says that it's an all in one product that primes, conceals, highlights, and provides coverage so that's how I used it (as an all in one, not an all in one plus one additional product sold separately).
@@thriftthick hey Cassie, would you be willing to do another wear test of this product under foundation, like a primer wear test? I'd really be interested to see how that would look! 🧡
it didn't say anything about this being used under foundation in the information section of the product, so I assumed it was a stand-alone product? Plus it's marketed as a BB cream which is worn alone (not under foundation).... this product is just confusion in a bottle lol
And i oop “ Instant Perfector 4-in-1 Glow Makeup gives the transformation of four products in one step. A primer, concealer, highlighter and BB cream all in one.”
It says perfector and didn’t say as foundation.. but you kept saying foundation.. it’s misleading,, it does say bb cream but it’s acceptable that bb cream doesn’t have full coverage..
I think this is a dupe for Charlotte Tilbury’s Flawless Filter. I also believe they have the age rewind in foundation format already that coincides with the concealer.
Hi! This is not a foundation! It’s like the CT hollywood flawless filter, thats why the shade range is so small(still smaller than the CT though). Its more like a primer i would say… i dont think they call it foundation but ”skin perfector”…
Hi👋🏽 I think it’s fine if they only make 5 shades as long as their shades go evenly from one side of the spectrum to the other, which it looks like it does
hmmmm I don't know.... I guess I can give it credit that they did create 5 different shades across a decent 'range', I just don't think that five shades is diverse enough to considered a good shade range you know?
Maybelline came out with a foundation version of that concealer years ago. I had it, it was nice! Edit: still have it in my drawer lol… it’s called instant age rewind eraser treatment makeup. You should try it, I remember loving it.
Well, if Maybelline only offers 5 shades, maybe it is because it isn’t a foundation 🙄 I don’t like this kind of review where the product is heavily criticised as totally misused! Might have been better to get proper information about the usage of the product in place of being so wrongly judgmental! This video is a total miss for me, not because of its content, but for the way the product is put on the ground due to ignorance caused by the brand or the shop, whatever… I couldn’t watch till the end of the video due to misuse and enhanced criticism.
Ugh, she didn’t criticize “heavily”. Maybelline was definitely confusing about their verbiage. They should have not included the word “conceal”. If the word “conceal” is there, I, as a consumer, would expect that it has coverage. If it says “primes, evens tone, highlights”, and not describe it as a bb cream, it’ll be less confusing.
y’all need to calm down. acting like you’re sooo perfect. maybe you should keep this energy with maybelline and press them for making such a confusing ass product 🤦🏻♀️ also fyi, some companies have a awful shade range , don’t mean they’re not foundations . so that logic is invalid
I think this might work well under a powder foundation as a primer for some very light, dewy coverage. Maybe give that a try if there's a powder foundation you like?
I don’t think this is supposed to actually be a foundation it’s supposed to be more like the Charlotte Tillberry Hollywood film star and glow. You could use it as a blurring Chloe primer/foundation but I think it’s not meant to be used as a foundation foundation… If that makes sense
This product is AMAZING!!! The first time i tried it i hated it but once it set it was beautiful & the best perk was how well it set under my eyes! Absolutely 0 fine lines/wrinkles!! After tons of trying…the key is LESS IS MORE & the applicator is a MUST!! ive heard tons of ppl say they cut it off. DONT!! Dont use a lot of product & dab it on for the entire application & if u have time pat it in with ur fingers gently & u will LOVE IT!! This will also help in the color adjusting part. The more product the less it adjusts. I use this almost every day & a cream blush & its all i use.
Love ur vids but I was disappointed to see you didn’t test this in the way it’s going viral for (which isn’t what it’s marketed for) People are saying this is like a dupe for CT flawless filter. Still enjoyed the vid tho (:
I would use this just like the CT HFF except I've heard it's more glittery. If it wasn't for that, I would probably have got it myself because I LOVE CT. It's literally one of the best purchases I've ever made and I wear it every time I get ready. So versatile.
So I actually really like this product. I prefer CT Flawless Filter, but I equally get compliments when I use 4-in-1. If you have large pores or bumps, I don't recommend it unless you use it only on areas you want to highlight. And I do need to use powder around my nose and under my eye. In person, people like the look but on camera it just looks oily there.
This isn't meant to be a typical foundation, it's meant to be a drugstore alternative for CT Flawless Filter, Auric Glow Lust, Lisa Eldridge Elevated Glow, etc, so the shade range is pretty standard for a product of this type. I was hoping this review would be more helpful as I too have oily skin, but this was poorly researched.
Yeah I definitely wouldn't wear this as a stand alone product....I want to try this though☺️ ....under my foundation just to highlight certain areas...or someone suggested in the comments using it as a primer for powder foundation ☺️
I think logic would tell you that given they have a HUGE shade range in all their foundations, this is not a foundation, and is not sold as a foundation.
LOL the Milani glow bb creams are JUST like this foundation, same look it must be a new trend!!! i tossed mine out after 2 wears of like "this is not my look" SO GLOWY!!
I think I’m going to try it. My really dry skin loves an oily/dewy formula and I do like the concealer. I don’t use my sponge applicator straight on my skin because of the hygiene concerns, I take it off with a clean finger to apply to my face before blending out with a brush.
🌼 Video idea 🌼 How about you try Gen Z Make-up? Like brown, dusty liner, over the nose blush, fluffy brows, freckles etc. Would be fun to see you in it and I think it‘s always nice to try something new! There are a few Gen Z Tutorials out there if you need inspiration or guidance. I think you would look so cute in it 💕
I bought this and use it under my CT foundation and I actually love it. I put it on without primer, blend it out with a brush and then put my foundation on and use a bb.
I don’t understand why everyone feels it necessary to offer every product in every shade. It’s impossible to make every shade anyhow and if they can’t make them well they shouldn’t make them at all. Just my opinion. That’s why there are options. Plenty of brands and companies to choose from.
They have always had a foundation in this line, I think this product is just them trying to keep with the times of BB and CC creams and this is marketed to an older demographic compared to their Dream BB creams.
I have used the original instant age rewind foundation for years, you do not use the the sponge tip for blending. You put it on then blend with whatever method you use. This is NOT a foundation, it is more of a BB cream. Light weight, light coverage, it does not give a heavy coverage. Do your research before you go talking about a product. Now I remember why I unsubscribed from your video’s.
I love this product and have normal skin. I just don’t think it’s catered to your skin type and goals of you face products. They actually have an age rewind foundation in the same package that has been out for years. Maybe try that one.
Interesting! I thought this was supposed to be more like a glowing primer similar to the Charlotte Tilbury product. I had look forward to trying it but now that I’ve seen it here I’m not so sure it’s going to be for me. I don’t think I want to be that glowing/shiny! Are use the instant age rewind concealer and foundation and love them! I only use the sponge tip to apply initially to my face and then I use a brush or a sponge. I don’t ever use the sponge tip applicator to blend. It gets too heavy.
No matter how Maybelline is categorizing it…just use it how it would work for you! I’d like to see you try it under a foundation, maybe even in the colder months when skin tends to not be so dewy. I’m surprised you tried it, the “glowy” factor seems opposite of what your skin needs.
Based on her replies in the comments section I doubt she’s going to revisit this even with proper use 😔 I’d love to see it on her skin with a more matte foundation.
Also even the skin tone & light coverage. I think she did not think this was foundation, just a habit, cause mostly does foundation reviews. SHE KNEW IT WAS NOT A FOUNDATION!
