Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Review

My sister had this years ago, and I always used to steal it, I loved the way it looked on my skin, it was so comfortable, never looked cakey. The color was too light for me, but I wore it anyway! If I could find this I would buy it again, but I do need to use what I have.

Ah yes this reminds me of the classic dream mouse foundation I used as a young teen. This is better thankfully but can still look somewhat caked on if your not careful. I find with Maybelline the shade range tends to be quite poor for lighter skin because their version of ivory tended to be quite bad but now with this line they bought out porcelain and porcelain ivory which is good new for pale fair people like me. The foundation feels quite nice and blends pretty well. The idea of it not clogging pores is a pro but can be a con because textured skins may notice it sitting on top of pores up close however at the same time it can be a bit forgiving to aged skin. I find mousse foundations quick and easy to apply for some reason it must be the texture. I don't think this is "full" coverage if you try build it up you get the cakey look and it doesn't stay matte be careful not to over moisturise or it will slide around and look dewy or oily. Noty favourite but I like how it feels when you apply it. Not something I will re buy at full price.

The cute little bottle attracted me to this mousse. The price was good so i though i would give it a try.

I normaly have very dry skin and like a full cover foundation to cover all my acne marks. It was a easy application it went on smoothly but sadly for me this isint a full cover and it seems ita not a foundation that can be buld up. It looked cakey and too mich when i applyd a secound layer.

I dont think i will be using it a again although it you like a ligjt wight foundatiom this is for you

I brought this product when it first made its debut back when I was a teenager and honestly the product has not changed nor have I been able to flaw the formula. Its great for a quick swish over when your running out the door but want to look decent. The matte finish remains matte even when you have an oily skin complexion. No need to apply powder either so it is a great product when you are pressed for time. Its buildable to a certain degree also. The feel of it is like actual mousse that you would eat!

I use light number 4 on my skin. I use a little bit of jojoba oil on my face first, then use a beauty blender with the foundation and it glides on my skin so smoothly. Great all day coverage.
