Maybelline Instant Anti-Age Eraser is somewhat of a cult drugstore product. It has been around for a really long time and it seems people still like its formula.
Packaging
It comes in a transparent plastic packaging. Sponge applicator helps you to evenly spread product, but it's fairly unhygienic as well. I like convenience of the sponge, because it blends the product a bit as you're applying it, but you still need to use separate brush to blend it in completely or you'll just be smudging product from one side to the other.
Formula
It's sort of like a mousse formula which has good enough glide to it. It reminds me of old school mousse foundation formulas a bit where I don't feel it really blends into the skin. It dries down to a velvet matte finish and has light to medium coverage.
Colors
It comes in 18 colors, but in our stores you'll find five to seven at most - mostly just for light to medium skin tones. I have one of the lightest shades called 00 Ivory (US has different shade names) which is almost too light for my winter complexion, but it's a neutral to warm fair shade. It matches my always pale neck in the winter perfectly and I could use it as a sort of highlighting product on my face.
Performance
Despite being sort of velvet in finish, it doesn't feel drying and it lets sebum through, which isn't ideal for oily skin.
