Maybelline’s Perfector 4-in-1 Glow Makeup Primer Review
Let’s dive into the latest buzz in the makeup world – Maybelline’s Perfector 4-in-1 Glow Makeup! This product hit the shelves about a month ago and has been causing quite a stir. It seems like we all can’t get enough of that radiant glow these days!
The trend of glow-boosting makeup was really set in motion by Charlotte Tilbury’s Hollywood Flawless Filter back in 2018. This type of product combines skincare benefits with makeup to give your skin a bit of coverage, a touch of color, and that coveted luminous glow. Other brands that have jumped on the glow train include ELF Cosmetics with their Halo Glow, Collection, HUDA Beauty with Glowish, ICONIC London with their Glow Booster, and now Maybelline with their Perfector 4-in-1 Glow Makeup.
So, what’s the deal with Maybelline’s Perfector 4-in-1 Glow Makeup? It’s a multitasking wonder that primes, conceals, highlights, and evens out your skin tone with a light coverage. Plus, it comes with a built-in sponge applicator for quick and easy application. With 7 self-adjusting shades that blend seamlessly into your skin tone, there’s a shade for everyone.
The Maybelline Instant Perfector 4-in-1 Glow Primer Makeup promises to give you that perfect glow while priming, concealing, highlighting, and evening out your skin tone. Priced at £12.99 for 20ml, you can find it at Boots, Superdrug, and Look Fantastic.
Now, let’s talk about the application. The packaging of this product is reminiscent of the Maybelline Age Eraser concealer, but on a larger scale. It features a twist-up dispenser with a large sponge applicator at the top for direct application to the skin. However, some may have concerns about the hygiene aspect of using the sponge repeatedly. While the product claims to be protected with an anti-microbial system, it’s still important to keep it clean. My tip for you is to avoid applying the product directly from the sponge to your face. Instead, dispense it onto the back of a clean hand and then apply it with your fingertips or a brush/sponge for a more hygienic application.
I tried the shade 1.5 Medium Light, which was a tad warm for my current skin tone but would work better for me in the summer. The "adjustable" aspect of the shades means that the light coverage allows for one shade to work across various skin tones, offering a broad spectrum with fewer shades.
When applied, the Maybelline Perfector 4-in-1 Glow Makeup feels lightweight and provides a subtle coverage with a noticeable glow. It’s very luminous, so if you prefer a more matte look, you might want to layer it with a light foundation. You can also apply it over your foundation for a dewy finish.
In comparison to other glow-boosting products on the market, the Maybelline Instant Perfector 4-in-1 Glow Primer falls somewhere between Collection and HUDA Beauty’s Glowish in terms of coverage and glow. It’s less coverage but more luminous than ELF’s Halo Glow and offers a similar glow to Charlotte Tilbury’s Hollywood Flawless Filter.
Overall, if you’re a fan of Maybelline or on the hunt for a radiant glow, the Maybelline Instant Perfector 4-in-1 Glow Primer might be worth a try. Thanks for reading my review, and stay tuned for more exciting products from Maybelline this year!
