Revlon Age Defying Spa Concealer : Works a treat!

June 14, 2010 Paris B 38 Comments

Here’s a product I’ve been wanting to share with you for a long time (but always put it off) and now that I have the time, I’d better tell you about how much I like it 🙂 Fittingly, its the FIFA World Cup season and with the Cup being hosted in South Africa this year, what with time differences, we’re having to stay up late or be up early in the wee hours of the morning to catch the matches. Eye bag and dark circles alert!!

Revlon Age Defying Spa Concealer
  • Save

The Revlon Age Defying Spa Concealer isn’t new. It came out sometime in 2009 if I recall correctly and I got it later in the year. What it is is a liquid concealer that comes in a brush pen form. Now, unlike the YSL Touche Eclat, I’ve had this one for many months and it does not stink. What’s up with the YSL one?!

I do not have very severe dark circles so this one covers well for me. I don’t use it for blemishes or pigmentation though. I only use it for undereye concealing and brightening and it works well.

The texture is not very thick and it does not settle into lines which is great. I twist it about 2 turns, swipe the brush on the undereye area and blend it with my fingers. I cannot say it brightens, because it does not. However, once you cover up any darkness, your eye area looks brighter anyway so for me I’d say that it does help make you look less tired.

Revlon Spa Concealer 002
  • Save

I have no complaints about this one. It works well, I like it and its affordable. Plus, it lasts a while. I’ve had mine for months and it shows no sign of finishing yet. I use 002 which is a perfect match for me. The picture shows it looking a little whiter than it really is. In reality its more yellow which might seem scary at first, but once you blend it out, its alright.

Pros: Light formula, Does not settle into lines, Medium coverage is not too thick, Portable, Affordable

Cons: Limited colours available

I believe it retails for about RM40 but you can easily wait till it goes on sale before picking it up. It does not have brightening properties with those little sparkly bits that brightening concealers have.

Tip: You can use this to cover redness on your cheek area too (although it might not work as well since its not full coverage) but it will help reduce the look of redness or acne marks. Dab on some concealer, pat it in to blend, dust some powder over it and its pretty much all concealed.

Don’t apply too much or it can be a little thick and then you won’t like it because it’ll settle into your fine lines. Have you tried this?

Revlon Age Defying Spa Concealer retails at about RM40 at Revlon counters

    Tried it. Works great!? Great for on-the-go, just twist and swipe. My first concealer, but sadly, few shades available.

      Its an awesome little tool eh? I think there are about 3 shades – suits the light to medium skintones but not the very dark

        True, in Singapore there are only like two shades.

    Would this work with oily lids and mineral powders? I haven’t used concealer before on the eyes due to my fear of it caking up and looking crinkly.

      I’m not sure what you mean. I use it as an undereye concealer to conceal dark circles. Swipe it on, pat in to blend and then swipe on my foundation du jour over it as per normal. If you don’t have problems with dark circles, you won’t need concealer for the eyes. But if you do, then its a god-send to help you look awake.

    I wanna try this! Lately I’ve been flaunting my dark circles too–simply because there isn’t enough time to spend on my face before I rush out! But this looks easy to use since it’s got the brush with it. And yes, I tested the YSL one–totally pointless.

      Did your YSL one stink too? This one’s affordable but you know what? I just got wind that L’Oreal Touche Magique is back so I will be getting hold of one and see how it compares to this Revlon 😉

    So how does it performs when compared to the loreal one? I had this one but then it seems to take countless twist for enuf concealer to cum out 🙁 Maybe it is just mine though…

    I’ve tried ester lauder’s but don’t fancy it alot. Finds it give more coverage but not brighten the area. Maybe this is similar to revlon’s. Ysl is too runny for me? I don’t quite think it covers or brighten. Not much difference whether I use it or not. Btw, mine don’t smell. I quite like Dior skin flash and by terry’s. I like skin79’s pink tube water drop bb which is unlike the usual bb cream (too thick textured for my liking) and has slight shimmers to brighten the eye area. It’s supposed to be used on the face but I doubt anyone uses this on the whole face. Will look like a disco ball. Works really great for me as it’s more affordable and it’s such a big tube…also a little goes a long way.

      I rather like the EL Double Wear concealer for undereye area but I haven’t tried their pen version. Not familiar with the BB creams too. Those just don’t do it for me 😛

    Will the concealer last long or will it dry up ? Cause everytime i put concealer to try to cover my dark circles, it ends up getting really dry and appear like i’ve got a lot of wrinkles.. *gosh*

      For me I face no problems with this concealer settling into fine lines. However, don’t put too much or it might be a problem. This is true of all concealers. You could try this trick I use to warm up concealer before applying.

    i think i’ve seen this early last year but maybe it didn’t sell well here.. i lvoe most revlon products i try but with concealer, i tend to stick with my tested brand.. maybe i should put this on the must-try list soon. thanks for the review!

    Hi, stupid question here, I just bought it like 10 minutes ago, been twisting the top clicking it a few times…but nothing’s coming out:S…am i doing it wrong? Sorry i don’t really know much about makeup=/

      The initial bit takes a while to appear. Keep turning it and you should see the concealer appear at the tip of the brush. In future you won’t have to twist as many times anymore.

    yup.. bought this after seeing the post..as i m having serious dark eye circles prob due to late nights of working recently.

    and yuh,,it is reli scary when u first applying it on,as the color is bright, yellow and so obvious..it seems like i hav put some color paste under my eyes…
    but,after blending it for awhile, it will starts to blend into the skin and looks more natural..

    it enhance the brightening effect, makin dark eye circles less obvious….. a gentle brightening effect,i will say……

Posting for posterity because I like this photo 😆 Also hello! 😜

It’s interesting that when I meet people they always ask me “Are you still blogging?” which tells me they don’t read my blog anymore (cos if they did they’d know I am lol! Weekly generally, but still writing) Yet I don’t blame them because a lot of social credit is placed on one’s Instagram presence. This I fear, is an area I am lacking. I pop in every now and then, share stories that are totally unrelated to what people follow me for, then wonder why they unfollow lol! Other times, spider webs gather in the corners of my unused account. I don’t blame them. Not everyone wants to know what my dogs are up to 😜

Anyway I make no apologies. It’s ok if you follow. It’s ok if you don’t. It’s ok if you’re interested in stuff I do. It’s ok if you’re not. Life goes on for both you and I and ultimately, we just both want it to be happy. So do what makes you happy 😊 I’ll still share my beauty finds and I still blog once a week. I may share what I’m up to from time to time, or I may not. I can tell you that I’m keeping busy and that I have a lot on my plate, none of it glamorous unlike that of most content creators/influencers. It’s too boring for most for me to share here so I’ll just share the good bits - as Instagram intended 😂

But if you want to find me, you’ll know how 😊

The review for the product is somewhere on the blog mywomenstuff.com
Yes I know many of you are terrified of lizards 🦎🫣

But I liked this sunscreen - for the body. Even though it left a white cast. Even though it is hard to remove. It kept my arms protected through a weekend of brutal sun exposure and I survived without burning! ✌🏻
