Maybelline Fit Me Concealer

Skin type: Normal - Oily Age: 29 Skin tone: Cool / Yellow Concealer colour: Fair 15

I have never been one to use concealer in the past and just relied on my foundation to cover all.. until now, until you have 2 baby boys (+ snoring husband) and your eyes look like two black pits on your face. Not a good look, so I decided to start playing with lighter concealers (to foundation) to cover those dark wells. Before I invested in top line concealers I wanted to play and see how I liked my new technique, if it would work for me so I opted for drugstore first.

I purchased this from Farmers for $22 (from memory) in the lightest shade possible 'Fair'. The colour choices are minimal - Fair, Light, Medium, Sand and may not suit those with darker skin.

The formulation is great and very easy to work with, it is wet enough to manipulate and blend into your foundation but has enough staying power to cover dark circles. I dot this on with the wand, I do find the wand is not that easy to apply concealer with and you almost have to keep redipping every time to get enough product for area, and then use my fingers to tap the product into my skin around my eyes, forehead and chin area. I then go in with my Beauty Blender to blend in to my foundation. This is then left quite wet and is needed to be set with a powder (preferably a light powder as to not alter colour of concealer/highlighter).

Maybelline Fit Me concealer wears lovely throughout the day and I have not had any troubles with it settling into lines or moving.

This is a fabulous drugstore / cheap concealer and I would not think twice about repurchasing. I would recommend this to anyone on a budget or wanting to play with new techniques and looks.

I really love this concealer it covers my dark under eyes and blemishes really well. It blends in with my foundation really well.

I love this product! I always get nervous about trying new concealers as usually they just never work for me! But after trying the fit me foundation and loving it I just had to try this. It covers my under eye circles well, and also my freckles that the foundation misses. Covers pimples well too! Comes in a good range of shades. Seriously if you want a quality cheap/drugstore concealer I would highly recommend trying this one!

This product is my holy grail concealer! After a huge break out almost 8 months ago, I've been left with a lot of red scarring on my lower cheeks and chin. I've forked out huge amounts of money and tried everything from high end to drug store to $2. Wearing foundation alone was no longer cutting it and I needed that extra bit of coverage! I finally tried this and OMG it has been a blessing. I use it after foundation, as part of my highlight/contour routine, which basically covers the areas I suffer scarring and boy does it cover! Not only does it work well to hide my red scars, it doesn't look cakey and lasts all day when set with powder! I hope it never gets discontinued I personally love it!

This is the best concealer I have come across so far! (previous was Collection and they are similar)

Such a creamy product but also sets very nicely as have not had it crease on me!

Works perfect for under eye area as well as blemishes, I don't know how I lived without this product!

The colour is perfect for my pale complexion and they always have stock. Two problems i always have when trying to find a decent concealer!

I've already repurchased this product and will continue to do so in the future.

I use this in shade 20, sand. It's my absolute favourite concealer for now and has been since this makeup range came out! It suits me perfectly and covers my dark circles whilst still looking natural. I just apply it with my fingers and it has buildable coverage and can also be used to highlight. Unlike the fit me foundation which oxidised to a nasty red colour these have yellow undertones and STAY yellow

I brought this with the foundation (liquid and stick form) after seeing it featured here on Beauty Review and having missed out on trials felt that I needed go out and buy it myself to see what the big deal was.

I picked up the lightest shade in the range which was 10 and the biggest problem I was faced with was even this light ivory tone was far to orange for my skin, but I have found that mixed with a little of my other concealers this makes a great under eye concealer so have been doing that to extend the life of my other concealers out.

Design wise the whole Fit Me range is a very nice, simple but chic look to it with its clear acrylic tube for the concealer and black shiny lid that has the doe footed applicator attached to the inside, the applicator is great for small dabbing on areas and it doesn't apply too much product that means you have to over work a certain area to get it to blend into your foundation for a even and flawless look.

Formula wise this as I mentioned above had the wrong shade toning for me personally with it being too orange, but the actual product itself was a great consistency with it being fluid enough to move on your face as your blend it but not too runny that it moves about too quickly or dribbles down your face.

If only the tone was more suited for me then I would love this product but that is the only reason I will not repurchase unless I find a shade, or they create a shade lighter than 115 but I have not seen it anywhere at local stores.

To be honest i am skeptical with all new products i try, especially ones i can buy from the supermarket. But honestly i love this concealer, i love the consistency i love its blend ability and the coverage.

I have seen a few reviews of this product and they havent been that great, however the users were frequents of high end products or more expensive ones like Nars's creamy concealer (name?).

However i love it! its perfect to blend with your fingers and it is perfect to blend with a stipple brush as well. And it reacts really well to powder to set the concealer and so far it hasnt creased during the day (just checked my bags as we speak) Would definitely buy this one again!

I lusted over the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer for so long and then I saw this affordable option being compared to it, so I decided to pick it and give it a go.

If you're in need of a good quality, affordable concealer then I highly recommend this one!

Maybelline Fit Me is extremely lightweight with a liquid-y texture, this means it's perfect for under the eyes or highlighting because it doesn't feel heavy, look cakey or dry to a matte finish. I really enjoy using this for brightening up my under eye area if I need to, it's got a great yellow tone and blends so beautifully. The finish of this concealer is more natural, somewhat satin. The coverage is light/medium but I haven't tried to build it up so am unsure of how well it performs. The shade range is very limited, I have Light and this works perfectly on my medium tan skin tone as a highlight/brightener.

I don't usually like doe-foot applicators but actually quite enjoy this one because it's so small. It allow me to get right up under my eye and into my inner corner, it also doesn't deposit too much product which is always appreciated.

Overall I think this is a great concealer. I honestly do not reach for it much any more though because I have a new love for It Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye, but I will still use this if I need that extra bright boost. I don't personally think this would be good for spot concealing or pigmentation concealing as it is quite liquid-y, I think a more solid texture works best for that.

If you are in the market for a new under eye concealer or highlighting concealer then definitely check this out!

I got this concealer off an overseas retailer for around $10. It's not much more to buy here though. It's full price at The Warehouse is $20 and I quite often see 25% off Maybelline. I think $15 for this is a good price to pay.

The packaging of this is simple. It's a thin rectangle, plastic tube. You can see throught the bottle so you can see the colour and also to see how much you have used up. The applicator is a doe foot wand, I think it gives you a good amount of product to work with and is also soft and gentle to use on my face.

I hav the shade 15 Fair. I think this is one of the lightest shades. It's maybe one or two shades to light for me but thats perfect as I only use this for undereye brightening and concealing. To me, this gives medium coverage. It does cover pretty much everything but it doesn't give a mask appearance. It feels pretty lightweight and blends out really easily. I like to use a sponge but I've used a brush and that works well too. This stays quite wet and doesn't dry down quickly so it's great to get a nice blend but you do need to set this with a powder. I have really dry skin so I never used to set it when I first got it but it creased so badly. I've since found rcma powder and that works great for me now. This lasts well on me all day.

This isn't my absolute favourite concealer but I think it does a good job and I'll repurchase in the future.
