This is the Maybelline New York Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles Treatment Concealer (run- on sentence alert). I decided to review it, because for a drug store product, it worked really well and at around $8, was really affordable.
I purchased the shade light. There is also a separate neutralizer shade that can be worn as a primer under this concealer for those with super stubborn dark circles. Upon asking the sales lady she recommended I buy this one and assured me I wouldn't be disappointed with the results. She was wearing both the neutralizer shade and concealer and I was immediately impressed by the fact that there was barely even a shadow detectable under her eyes!
The only slightly annoying thing about using this product is the amount of effort it takes to first get the product out. The instructions read that you need to keep turning the top until the product begins to bleed out. This. took. forever. At one point, I was worried it was broken and I would have to be a raccoon for the day.
After a lot of twisting, It finally worked! Here's the eye I tested the product on first. I swooped it on with the applicator in the triangular shape under my eyes and then blended it in with my ring finger until it dried. The consistency was nice and buildable. Added bonus: it has goji berries and haloxyl in the ingredients.
This is my other eye, without the concealer. Ew. As you can see, this dark circle eraser works like a charm. The coverage was pretty long lasting. I wore it for around 8 hours with no touch ups because I'm lazy. I could have easily done one after about 4-5 hours. Overall, I would rate this product a 8/10. I will definitely be repurchasing.

Now Playing: Bombay Bicycle Club
I first discovered Bombay Bicycle Club in March of this year. The best way I can describe their music is that it makes me happy and gives me #allthefeels. Yes, I just used a tumblr tag to express myself. #SorryNotSorry.
Bombay Bicycle Club is a British indie rock band from Crouch End, London. The band members include Jack Steadman (lead vocals, guitar, piano), Jamie MacColl (guitar), Suren de Saram (drums) and Ed Nash (bass). Here's a fun fact, the band got its' name from a (now defunct) chain of Indian restaurants in Britain.
Their latest album, So Long, See You Tomorrow has become my obsession. There are 10 tracks in total, all of them amazingly catchy and uplifting. My favourite three tracks are "It's Alright Now", "Carry Me", and "Luna".
Check out their SoundCloud and their music video for their first single, "Carry Me" below.
