Most Helpful Positive Review Perfect Foundation I absolutely love this 4-in-1 glow makeup product. It makes my skin look nice and dewy, and I can wear it to the office or out on date night. It does have sheer coverage and a bit of shimmer so if you're looking for a full-coverage matte foundation, this isn't the product for you! However, I really like this product, and I will definitely be purchasing it again.
Most Helpful Critical Review Not a CT dupe at all. No smoothing or blurring, plastic-y. This did not work at all for me (46yo, some fine lines, larger pores, some texture). Put side by side next to the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter, the comparisons must be coming from people with flawless skin already (or who don't actually have the CT to look at it side by side). The CT smooths texture, blurs pores, and gives a hint of highlight. There is no smoothing or blurring with the Maybelline, and by the 4 hour mark, the finish looks like someone made a shrinky-dink out of my face or wrapped me in plastic wrap. Not a cute look. Accentuated everything I'm trying to minimize with my complexion products, and settled into lines. On the upside, it is comfortable and hydrating for dry skin, as long as you aren't concerned about what your face looks like. I was surprised because I've always thought the "age rewind" line was targeted more toward my age group, but this product doesn't seem to be. I also strongly dislike the sponge tip applicator, but I get that they were trying to ride the waves of the success of the similarly branded concealer (which is one of my all-time favorites and works wonderfully for me). Ahhh well. Better luck next time.

This product is not glittery, shimmery, shiny, nor sheeny. I even think saying it is "glowy" is a stretch. Instead, I find that it makes my skin look radiant in the most natural and healthy way.
I selected the lightest shade offered, 00. For reference, I am moderately fair, maybe on the border of fair/light, with cool, pink undertones. I have some natural freckles as well as some postpartum melasma; I also have rosacea and see my flares on my cheeks.
While I do not think this product "conceals", I did find it to even out my skin tone. Although some of my redness still peeks through—as do my freckles—my skin tone looks just a bit more cohesive.
It has a "slip" to it, almost like a primer would (hence, the priming claim), and sits well under other BB creams/foundations. Because of this priming feel, I find that when I apply it all over, I use less than I would a normal foundation. A little goes a long way. It dries down, does not feel sticky, but the radiance remains intact for hours. My skin just looks healthy, even with no other makeup!
Gorgeous, dewy look 5

This is a great base later alone or very buildable with other foundation. It has a highlighter mixed in which gives me an ethereal dewy look all day.
Perfect for a highlighter 5
mammadi from undisclosed
I got the darker shade and use it as highlighter. It's so pretty and last a long time. I love the glow it give especially on a no makeup makeup look. I'm definitely going to be buying it again! I've already recommended it to my friends.
Nice Highlighter 4
Fairchild from USA
I can't see how this would be foundation as it is very sheer and shimmery. It is a nice sheer highlighter though. I have fair skin and thought that the lightest shade would be too dark, but it blended well. Zero stars for the applicator, though.
great product 5

I love the product. you only need to take one step and your set to go. I use this product everyday and I will be going back to get more. this 4 and 1 is great when you are running late and need to do a quick face beat. this product last all day. I would give this product a ten out of ten.
shades are terrible!! 3
jo from NYC
I got the lightest shade and didn't even bother to open it. it's ridiculously dark for me. I thought this was a mistake in packaging or something! I will be returning.
the review 5
amberb09c9 from undisclosed
So I tried this product from Maybelline. I love Maybelline products. however usually I don't use anti aging products because I still technically young and sometimes certain products like that can make your skin feel different. anyways, I applied it. its creamy texture, but applies easy. I'm someone who likes that matte feel when it comes to cover up for my face, but this gives your skin a shiny glow. so I would recommend this if your just enjoying the beach or something.
love it! 3

I love this product it reminds me so much of the Charlotte flawless filter!! It blends out so nicely my only issue I have is the amount of options the have for shades. I am usually a tan neutral and I was a medium in this product.
A Radiant and Easy Makeup Complement 4
rbwinklerphd from undisclosed
For Mamas like me on the go who don't have as much time to put on some makeup, the Perfector makes the routine very easy. I love the clickable top to get the makeup on the sponge, how smooth the application is, and the sheen on my face afterward. I will say that I did have to build from there, so 4-in-1 may be a bit misleading, but it's a good start for sure.
Best sheer/light coverage "foundation" in years!! 5
JenniferElle from Portland, OR
I haven't fallen in love with a product in a LONG TIME. I first saw Shelbey Wilson and Amanda Z on YouTube comparing this product to the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter. Although it's similar, it's not nearly as reflective. Both Shelbey and Amanda used this as a complexion product all over the face and it looked STUNNING. I immediately ordered it. I received it and it's even more beautiful than I'd hoped. It's so lightweight you don't even feel it on the skin. I am absolutely in love with this and if your thinking about getting it, DO IT! My shade is Fair/Light
interesting to keep trying 4

This product is unlike any other products I have in my collection. It doesn't have much coverage at all but provided a nice natural glow to the skin. Still trying to figure out how I will use it or implement it into my daily routine.
Good concept 3
creative_prophet from undisclosed
I purchased this to try out and we so exited about it. However, the first thing I notice was the shades are very limited we need more. I compare it to the tarte glow wand, I like that one more. The shades did look to pale for me and it crease way to much due to the fact that product stays on greasy you definitely had to set it with powder . I will give another try but I believe formula need to be fine better. Maybe as and under your makeup base it will work better

I love this product. It made my face look so smooth and even. I got the shade fair and it was perfect for my skin tone.
color me surprised 5
sabrinabeena from undisclosed
I am a very very pale person. It's really hard to find foundations that don't make me look like Casper and also don't make me look like an Oompa Loompa. This shade looked really dark in the package and I was very concerned however on the skin it gave me a beautiful glow and no harsh line to my neck! I did have to blend it down a little bit but it gave me a natural healthy glow. I imagine this is what people like about the charlotte tilbury flawless filter. It does change my redness and neutralizes it but it is a very light coverage. You can apply foundation over it but I am scared of cake face. Overall I really enjoyed this product!
Way to go 4-N-1 5
thebigdilemma from undisclosed
I love how easy this was to put it. I'm always doing three things at once as a mom so being able to do something that makes me feel better and I can literally do with one hand is a major plus. I was worried I had used too much at first but I was able to spread it around really easily due to the concealer sponge top. The color is perfect for my skin tone. It evens out my skin tone while taking away the reddishness but still letting my freckles show(which I love).
Forsure gives a glow 4
darlas13 from undisclosed
So, I have very dry skin and have red splotches. This product hides it pretty well. The crank to start took a little bit however after the product got into the sponge it was ok. Dabbing the product on seems to work better than swiping across the face. I did feel a little too glowy but dabbed with a tissue and the end result was better. I would recommend this product! As you can tell from my photos, it does a good job at hiding the redness. (just remember to do your neck! LOL)
it's eh 3
katiedollhansen from undisclosed
Im not a huge fan of this because it makes me look extremely sweaty. I love a good glow but this was not the glow i was going for. Try this as you please. I am not a fan.
very versatile! 5
corald9 from undisclosed
my Ulta and online didn't have my shade in this, so I got Medium. I have used this product in a couple different ways and I LOVE IT. I use it as a primer and it adds this gorgeous glow with a little color. since the shade I got is darker, I also use it as kind of a cream bronzer and the way it blends is so incredible, it's literally become my favorite part of my makeup routine! this is definitely a new staple of mine, definitely recommend!!
amazing 5
michellem559 from undisclosed
I love this makeup. the built in sponge makes application so easy. easily blended. great color and coverage! the price is very reasonable in my opinion! my skin looks great. will def buy again!
shades are way off 1
Kamryn from Tampa, Florida
I ordered the shade fair/light and to my surprise it was easily a medium to tan shade. For all of my pale princesses out there this will not work for you. I really wish the shades were more accurate, I was really looking forward to using this. There is absolutely no way you could make this work if you have fair skin.
SPF?? I can't find info 5
MissPerfectMess from TEXAS
I love this makeup, but I can't find it anywhere if it has any sun protection at all
review 4
alyssad155 from undisclosed
Overall, I think this product reminds me a lot of eye concealer from Maybelline. They are both good products, this one does not really stand out in any particular way but is good for brightening up your face!
nice for what it is. 3
marym70cf from undisclosed
i do like this product but its not for everyone. it is what it says it is. it is very glowy and very light coverage. i have combo oily skin and it can break up easily on the skin. if it sparingly or as a highlight and it's beautiful!
Versatile Product 4
goodgirlchronicles from undisclosed
This four in one is a super versatile product. You can use it as a primer , highlighter , concealer or BB cream.
I've used it as a concealer and BB cream. As a BB cream it's a nice light coverage and great for make up no makeup look. I wish there were more shades. I like the applicator .
Wow 4 in 1!!! 5

This product really amazed me! Not only does it concea", but it has highlight, primer, and contour all in one!! My face looked snatched after an application of makeup. It lasted my 10 hour shift at work too
