Maybelline New York Instant Age Rewind Instant Perfector 4-In-1 Glow Makeup, Light/Medium

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I love how easy this product is to use. You shake and twist couple of times to start the product and then squeeze the sponge on the top to get the product out for the first time. The texture and the color matches your skin perfectly. I love that it stays on my face all day and it keeps my skin hydrated as well. Definitely recommend buying this.

This foundation is so glowy! I wake up very early for my shifts at work, most days looking like I could still use more sleep.I look in the mirror, and pull my hair back. As soon as I start applying this flow in a bottle to my 45 year old skin, suddenly it's as if an angel is shining a subtle light at me. I also use bronzer, eyeliner and mascara. A little lip balm, and I'm out the door!*This makeup is very light to medium coverage and is not buildable to provide more pigment. A swipe on each cheek, one on my forehead, and one on my chin- and I'm headed out the door being complimented for how pretty I look compared to the days I don't wear makeup.A little goes a long way... If you want to glow so bright you shine, apply as much as you want. I have scars from teenage acne caused by PCOS, as well as hyperpigmentation and some sun spots now. It evens out my skin and provides just enough glow to deflect those issues. I love this makeup. Please NEVER stop producing it, Maybelline!

I am absolutely OBSESSED with this stuff and have been loyally wearing it for a few years. I used to get so frustrated with foundation because it never failed to look cake-y on my face. But the 4-in-1 perfecter has the same effects as a light-coverage foundation but without the cake-iness and with an added glow. It's a lifesaver. However, the lightest shade still appears a bit too dark when applied to my face. Especially in the winter months when I'm paler, it doesn't totally match the rest of me even though it's the lightest option there is (and I'm not ghostly pale).

This is a great dupe for a high end “complexion rescue”. I am almost 50 and was looking for something that gave a little coverage without feeling heavy or settling in my fine lines. The color match was great (light/medium shade)

I bought this foundation because I was looking for a light and natural coverage for my skin.• The foundation is very easy to apply. It has a thin and watery consistency that glides smoothly on the skin. You can use your fingers, a sponge, or a brush to apply it.• The foundation feels very light and comfortable on the skin. It does not feel heavy or cakey at all. It gives a sheer and natural finish that looks like your skin but better.• The foundation is not very pigmented or buildable. It does not cover any blemishes, redness, or dark circles. It only evens out the skin tone slightly. If you are looking for more coverage, this foundation is not for you.• The foundation does not match my fair skin tone very well. I bought the lightest shade available, but it was still too dark and yellow for me. It made me look like I had a tan that did not suit me.• The foundation takes a long time to dry and set on the skin. It stays wet and sticky for a while, which makes it easy to smudge or transfer. You need to use a powder or a setting spray to make it last longer and avoid creasing.

Love it! Light weight, great coverage (I don’t like thick/heavy) blends super easy, smooth, does not settle in creases.

Light weight foundation, you can wear it everyday. If you’re looking for a full coverage then this one is not for you

I had run out of the last foundation I had that worked well, but they had since changed their fprmula and I was breaking out like crazy any time I wore foundation. Cue the intense googling, article scouring, friend-interrogating process of trying to find something new that would work with my finicky, oily skin. Multiple sources RAVED about this product and I'll admit, I was really skepticle. But, for under $10, it was worth a shot. Choosing a color online was ridiculously hard, but I gave my best guesstimate based on other Maybelline products I've used and chose 120 Classic Ivory.The Pros: Good coverage, buildable if you use a sponge, and not cakey or powdery. I can't feel it on my face once it has dried. If I'm in a temp-controlled environment and resist touching my face it wears pretty well. I can also blend other products on top of it pretty well. The best is that my skin is finally happier! I do need to be sure to wash it off, but if I forget to for one day I'm not guaranteed a breakout.Cons: If you're used to a thick formula, this may seem a little watery, but it does build coverage well. It doesn't hold up very well to sweat/water, so you may want to use a setting spray if you're going to be without AC, working out, or in high humidity/the weather calls for rain. It isn't a "long wear" formula; for most people under "normal" conditions it'll be fine, but if you have a habit of touching your face, if you have puppies licking you, or if you fall asleep on a pile of fresh laundry out of the dryer (totally hypothetical), you'll need to touch up (and rewash said hypothetical laundry). For me, the color was just a smidge on the yellow side. I might try 122 next...
