The Maybelline Eraser Eye Colour Correcting Concealer in Orange is designed for individuals seeking to visibly correct discolouration, dark spots, and blue/purple under-eye circles before applying their regular concealer. This easy-to-use formula helps achieve a smooth, even complexion by neutralizing unwanted tones. It's crucial to remember that this product functions as a colour corrector and should be layered beneath a skin-tone matching concealer, not used as a standalone product.

This Maybelline Eraser Eye Colour Correcting Concealer in Orange excels at its primary function: neutralizing blue and purple undertones. Its performance is best realized when used as the first step in your concealing routine for targeted areas.
Identify Target Areas: Focus on areas with blue or purple discolouration, such as under-eye circles, dark spots, or veins.
Apply Sparingly: Gently twist the collar of the applicator until the product is visible on the sponge. Dab a small amount directly onto the discoloured area. A little goes a long way with colour correctors.
Blend Gently: Using your finger, a makeup sponge, or a brush, gently pat or blend the product into the skin until the orange tint appears sheer and the discolouration is visibly muted. Avoid rubbing, as this can move the product.
Layer with Concealer: Once blended, apply your regular skin-tone matching concealer over the corrected area. This step is crucial for blending the corrected area seamlessly with the rest of your complexion.
Set (Optional): For extended wear and to prevent creasing, lightly set with a translucent powder, especially in the under-eye area.
Example Application: If you have prominent blue-ish dark circles, apply a thin layer of the orange corrector directly onto the darkest part of the circle. Pat to blend, then follow immediately with your regular concealer shade. The orange neutralizes the blue, allowing your skin-tone concealer to provide true coverage without looking ashy or gray.
This product requires no complex setup. Simply remove the cap and twist the collar of the applicator in the direction of the arrows until the product appears on the sponge. The first use may require several twists.
Designed for Layering: This orange colour corrector is specifically designed to be layered beneath a standard skin-tone matching concealer. It pairs seamlessly with Maybelline's Instant Eraser Multi-Use Concealer but can also be used effectively with other liquid or cream concealers and foundations.
Skin Tone: Suitable for most skin tones that experience blue/purple discolouration. Its purpose is to neutralize, not to match your skin tone directly.
Clean the Applicator: After each use, you can gently wipe any excess product from the sponge applicator with a clean tissue to prevent product buildup and maintain hygiene.
Storage: Store the product upright with the cap securely closed in a cool, dry place at room temperature to prevent drying out or leakage. Avoid extreme temperatures.
Shelf Life: Discard after the recommended period (typically 6-12 months after opening) as indicated by the 'open jar' symbol on the packaging, to ensure product efficacy and hygiene.
