 Maybelline Dream Mousse Concealer ($7.29) Dream Mousse™ Concealer conceals with an amazing air-soft feel
- Air-whipped mousse texture feels lightweight on skin and builds opacity for settle-free coverage
- Completely covers dark circles, imperfections and redness
- Blends and smoothes away imperfections instantly
- Oil-Free, fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, dermatologist tested, safe for sensitive skin.
My Thoughts:
I’ve never tried a mousse concealer before so I didn’t know what to expect. I was very surprised to how well the Maybelline Dream Mousse Concealer worked. The concealer went on very smooth and I had no trouble blending. You can layer the concealer. However, be aware of caking if you layer too much at once. I found it worked best if layered on thin layers. I didn’t experience any creasing or settling into fine lines. The concealer lasted all day and did a great job of covering up my dark circles. My one major complaint is that there aren’t that many shades to choose from. On the bright side, if you can’t find a shade to match you, you can use it as an eyeshadow primer. It worked great!

 Maybelline Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Concealer ($8.49)
Why You’ll Love It
Micro-minerals fully conceal imperfections and under-eye darkness leaving you with naturally flawless, healthy looking skin.
- All-day natural coverage
- Won’t clog pores
- Ophthalmologist tested
- Contains 0% oil, 0% talc and 0% fragrance
My Thoughts:
Maybelline Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Concealer is not so great as an under eye concealer, but it is great for covering up redness. It’s a creamy concealer that is very easy to blend and provides medium coverage. I didn’t get any clogged pores or breakouts from the concealer (thank goodness!). You don’t need a lot. Just a tiny tiny drop. Not even a drop of water size. Less than that. If you layer on a few layers, it doesn’t get cakey.Definetely one of the good drugstore concealers.

 Maybelline Pure Concealer ($2.99)
Why You’ll Love It
Blemish treatment stick and salicylic acid acne medication covers, conceals and treats in one precision applicator.
- Contains the highest level of acne medicine (2% salicylic acid) to treat and prevent new blemishes
- Formulated with good-for-your-skin ingredients like Aloe, Vitamin E and Chamomile to soothe skin
My Thoughts:
What was I thinking when I bought this? Thank goodness for BOGO sales. The packaging idea was great, but the product itself wasn’t. I couldn’t really blend it because it dried too quickly or maybe it was dry itself. There are very limited shades, and I found it too difficult to find one that would work for my skintone. It’s really orange. Like fake and bake orange. Even though it only costs like $2-$3, I feel there should be some product in the stick. There was barely any. The staying power isn’t great either. It is easily rubbed off. I wouldn’t recommend it. If you want to try it, I recommend really moisturizing your face first or you will end up with cakey patches all over your face.

 Maybelline Cover Stick Corrector Concealer ($4.99)
Why You’ll Love It
Excellent coverage in an easy-to-manage stick.
- Completely conceals blemishes, dark circles and other imperfections
- Waterproof
- Can be worn alone or under foundation
- Color Correctors: yellow corrects dark circles, green corrects redness
My Thoughts:
The Maybelline Cover Stick Corrector Concealer is not bad, but it’s not great. It lasts all day which is wonderful! However, it is drying. It isn’t super creamy, but it is easy to blend. The corrector is perfect to cover small blemishes, but not under eye circles. I think it’s too dry for that. If you can find a shade that matches you, I say give it a try. A little warning: the color selection is very limited.
