What they say:
Twist it up, just like a lipstick, to effortlessly blend away dark under-eye circles and cover minor blemishes. Erace Secret Cover-Up has a creamy matte finish.
What I thought:
The color I tried out, was perfect for my skin color. I received Medium, which is for cool and warm tones. I fall somewhere in between.
I loved that I could “erase” some of the ruddiness to my skintone and cover those red blemish scars on my chin. I also loved that the color blended with my skin, not making it obvious that I had concealer on. I’ve used concealers in the past that just looked orange, cakey and just plain obvious. There’s no point in using a concealer that is basically pointing out to the world, “Hey look, I tried to cover up this blemish, but instead just made it the focus of my face.”
Max Factor’s Erase Secret Cover-Up does just what the name implies…it’s a secret between you and your face. This concealer had a matte finish, so there was no shine. I also used a sponge wedge to blend instead of my fingertips since I have such an oily T-zone. This helped lessened the chances of any oil transferring from my fingertips to my face.
Finally, when using Max Factor’s Pan Stik foundation
Fabulous!
i used to use make up sticks all the time (maybelline) and i remember my skin looking almost doll like! but i think as i get older, my skin needs more mositurizing formulas…but man, this post makes me wanna go back and try them again!
what is the darkest cover up concealer you have?
