Maybelline Instant Age Review

 Updated On:

Overview

The company Maybelline manufactures a large cosmetics range. The Maybelline Instant Age range is a cosmetics range for older women who want to conceal any lines and wrinkles that they may have. The Maybelline Instant Age range includes concealers and foundations in different colors.

Product Details

One of the major products in the Maybelline Instant Age range is the Maybelline Instant Age Concealer. The official website tells us that this concealer will cover imperfections giving your skin a younger look. It also tells us that the Maybelline Instant Age Concealer moisturizes with glycerine providing complete hydrating coverage, and visibly brightens the face to give it a luminous, younger look. There are also a number of foundations in this range including the Maybelline Instant Age Foundation that are available in a range of colors.

We are told that as well as covering imperfections it contains avocado, which will help renew the skin and give it a firmer look. There do not seem to be any specific anti-aging treatments in this range but rather cosmetics which are designed to cover lines and wrinkles. Although Avocado, which is present in the Maybelline Instant Age foundation, does have beneficial qualities for the skin, it is not enough by itself to actually diminish lines and wrinkles. If what you are looking for is an anti-aging treatment which will actually diminish your lines and wrinkles rather than cover them up, you will not find what you are looking for in the Maybelline Instant Age range. Clinical trials have shown that anti-aging creams which contain the peptide combination Matrixyl 3000 can be effective in diminishing lines and wrinkles, so if you are looking for an anti-aging product you may want to try one that contains Matrixyl 3000.

The Good

  • The Maybelline range of cosmetics is a well established brand.
  • The official website for the Maybelline Instant Age range contains contact details should you wish to contact a representative of the company.
  • The Maybelline Instant Age Foundation contains avocado which has beneficial properties for the skin.

The Bad

  • The products in the Maybelline Instant Age range are designed to cover up lines and wrinkles rather than permanently diminish them.
  • The official website for the Maybelline Instant Age range does not give price details for individual products.
  • There does not appear to be a money back guarantee upon purchase of a product within the Maybelline Instant Age Range.
  • There does not seem to be an offer of a free trial sample via the website.

The Bottom Line

At the end of the day if you are looking for a product to diminish your lines and wrinkles you will not find what you are looking for in the Maybelline Instant Age range. What you will find is a fairly solid makeup range, but how well it competes with other potential wrinkle concealers on the market today we really can’t say.

Our Top Pick For 2009:  Dermapril-SP

Dermapril-SP was rated the best-in-class performer, with a cutting-edge formula and results visible immediately after use. Matrixyl 3000™, the primary active ingredient in Dermapril-SP, is backed by clinical research that showed reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles of as much as 33% after two months of use. Additionally, the formula contains the European miracle ingredient Argatensyl™, which creates an immediate tightening effect on applied areas, making results visible within minutes of use.

The treatment helps the skin regain a more youthful biochemical makeup by supporting the natural production of three building blocks – Collagen, Fibronectin and Hyaluronic Acid. The result is a rapid rejuvenation, diminishing the appearance of wrinkles and other cosmetic signs of age caused by sun exposure, smoking, stress, and other common factors.

In clinical trials, Matrixyl 3000™ decreased the appearance of wrinkles by as much as 33% over a six week period. With the immediate tightening benefits of Argatensyl™, this formula has a completely unique combination of short-term cosmetic results as well as sustained, cumulative benefits to the skin. Common reported results include smoothing and firming; softer skin; diminished appearance of fine lines and wrinkles; and healthier looking, glowing skin. Based on the high cost and quality of the ingredients, Dermapril-SP is reasonably priced. Customer satisfaction seems high and Dermapril-SP offers a risk-free trial, so users can evaluate the product prior to paying the full retail price.
