Since writing this Tried & Tested Review - The Revolution Pro Blur has been difficult to find and now possibly discontinued. I have since been introduced to its slicker baby sister - the Revolution Pro BLUR instant line Eraser in stick form which is lighter and easier to apply.
Blur Fine Line Filler vs Instant Line Eraser
If you’ve found this post while searching for the old Revolution Pro Blur & Fine Line Filler, it’s important to know that the pot formula is frequently sold out or discontinued on many retailers sites and difficult to find now.
Whenever - I do a wedding party of Makeups, the mother of the Bride or the Groom, or the Grandmother, or the Aunt take a look at themselves in the mirror, say 'wow, that doesn't look like me, can you do my makeup everyday and shame you couldn't get rid of these these wrinkles..." pointing to their crows feet, or lifting up their eyes.
But I know what they mean. Those blummin filtered images really don't help us not-as-young types in how we feel - see my post on The misuse of Filtering Photographs and skin retouching Apps
And it certainly doesn't help when Uncle Bob walks through and hollers 'ere, have you got enough polyfilla for her....?' (Northern humour)
So I have been on the lookout for something. Something that could at least soften and 'blur' out fine lines and wrinkles. Just even a little bit. I don't expect miracles. I am realistic. But just something that can make them look less obvious. (Or just botox the hell out of our faces if you want to)
So I decided to give this little 'miracle ' a go, because I needed something to just soften and blur my fine lines as well as my brides and their mothers.
The Two Versions
A lightweight putty-texture blurring primer, originally designed to smooth pores and soft-focus fine lines.
Can be used on face, lips (to prevent feathering) and under eyes.
Needs warming between fingers before blending — effective but a bit fiddlier.
Often out of stock or discontinued, which is why many find it hard to purchase now.
Revolution Pro Blur Instant Line Eraser (stick format)
A travel-friendly primer stick with a soft-focus finish that blurs the look of fine lines and pores and creates a smooth base.
Easier to apply directly where you need it — no warming or finger blending required.
Ideal for wearing both on its own for a fresh-face look or under makeup as a base.
Vegan and cruelty-free, with a universal shade that works across skin tones.

Feature | Blur & Fine Line Filler | Blur Instant Line Eraser |
Format | Putty / blended with fingers | Primer stick |
Ease of use | Requires warming + blending | Swipe-and-blend simplicity |
Best for | Targeted blur (precise areas) | Everyday use + on-the-go |

Travel-friendly | Not ideal | Yes — extremely easy |
Current availability | Often sold out | Easier to find in stock |
How They Feel in Real Use
From my hands-on testing, the Instant Line Eraser stick feels lighter and more intuitive than the original pot — especially if you’re not used to working with creamy textures and finger-warming techniques. The stick format lets you quickly blur targeted areas (fine lines around eyes or mouth, texture around nose/cheeks) without fuss, which makes it a great modern alternative.
Some users love the convenience and the soft-focus finish; others find it sits better under makeup than doing heavy blurring by itself.
Bottom Line
If you can’t find the original Blur & Fine Line Filler anymore, the Blur Instant Line Eraser stick is a very practical and user-friendly update that gives a similar smoothing effect with easier application for everyday use.
On the sides of my nose.
How I used the Revolution Pro Blur Instant Line Eraser
So, as instructed, I moisturised my skin, applied eye cream and went to work by using it like an eraser on my open pores on chin, on mid cheeks (near nose) and on the fine lines around my eyes and several passes on the little scar on the side of my mouth,. Then proceeded with a tinted moisturiser and concealer. Personally, I think it can be worn over makeup too, in the places that really bother you more, or if you have forgotten to apply it before base/foundation. It lies over the skin like an invisible veil. I also found that it does work as a nice base around the lips if you like to slightly overline them. And true to their claims, it is incredibly lightweight and non drying (unlike some line and wrinkle smoothers I've tried in the past). I think it should be worn over your current primer and used in target areas only. I have yet to try it out on my brides families or my slightly maturer brides (I am in that bracket too).

Con's
Quite small tube at 22g and much thinner than the original pot
Thinner than the original so needs more applications (I think)
Seems to wipe away easy when makeup is applied, so pat/press your foundation/concealer over the area rather than swiping
Its not going to erase deeper lines I'm afraid, just lessen them slightly.
Seems slightly more drying than the pot version.
Wish it would make the scar near my mouth look more filled. But it hasn't.
To use within my makeup kit I will need to cut some off with a spatula which kind of defeats the new application method, so better for personal use.
My thoughts on the Revolution Pro Blur Instant Line Eraser...
I'm a fully qualified Beauty Therapist, Makeup Artist and a Nail tech has been, and have been part of the beauty industry for, um, years. Like 30 years now.
I love to find solutions to problems. Because I need them too. So if I like something. I will spread the word. My deep scar is still visible, but it is 'blurred' So I would say the Revolution Pro Blur is something I would definitely recommend to try. It feels nice, it lightly diffuses those fine lines and smooths out those pores and would definitely use it on my wedding parties. It's-not quite the polyfilla that Uncle Bob suggested and I'm sure the Mums, Aunts and Grandmothers will still pull themselves to bits and say 'wish I could get rid of these jowells' cos hey, it's what we do. (I go back to my earlier comment on filtered images that makes us hate ourselves sometimes)
But I know they will look fabulous and love themselves when they see themselves in the professional pics.
I give it 3.5/5 Canny good. (which is good) and I've since purchased some for my Mum.
