Maybelline The Eraser Foundation Review

Hi everyone,

Today, I will be reviewing the Maybelline 'The Eraser' Foundation. I heard about this new product from Teen Vogue and was even more excited than usual as it was released on my Birthday! January 15th! At least it was released in England then. I bought it one week ago and have tried it out over this past week. I have sensitive skin so I'm extra careful when purchasing a new product. It seemed to tick all of the right boxes as the colour selection was very good, I like to remain quite pale and hate it when the lightest colours are way too dark! I decided to try the lightest colour which is 010 Ivory and I have to say it compliments my skin rather well. I'm used to wearing something a little paler but this colour really does suit. It gives me a glow rather than completely being white. It glides on absolutely wonderful as you use a kind of sponge applicator which comes with the foundation, as you can see on the picture :). This leaves a smooth coverage that for me did last all day and often I did not feel the need to reapply which is normally the case.

Basically you turn the top of the bottle in the direction of the arrow on the neck, it should click and then you apply it to your face like you would with an eraser. This is most likely the reason for the name. I have to admit you do get best results when used in a circular motion like when correcting a mistake. I really, really love this foundation and am so happy I decided to try it. My previous foundation was the No7 Lift and Luminate foundation from Boots in the colour Alabaster. This foundation is much better than that one which I thought was perfect for me. I fully recommend anyone to try it as in comparison to a moose it is just as weightless and flawless. It doesn't feel like it is blocking my pores unlike some liquid foundations. The foundation also possesses Anti Age ingredients, Collagen and Goji Berry aswell as being SPF 18. I cannot think of a huge fault, although I did prefer applying with a brush. The sponge is easy to use and fairly simple to ensure you apply the right amount and do not waste it. Yet, I cannot come up with a plausible way of cleansing the sponge which I would want to do. Unless, there is a way to remove the sponge from the bottle. If I find out I'll let you guys know. Regardless of that quite minor problem, I recommend through my own judgment that it is a great foundation and will suit almost any kind of skin. Definately hit the stores and get it! I think it's ordinarily around £10 from most beauty stores, but I got mine from a deal at Tesco for £6.68 or something! There is also a matching primer so check it out!

I hope my review helps and I hope it has the same effect on you guys!
