Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Review

TGIF! So I have another product review for you guys today. I was in Target the other day and I was in the beauty section 
*of course* and I came across this foundation (among other things but I will do separate reviews later). I was surprised that they made this product for women of color so I thought I'd give it a try. Here are some reviews and pics.

MAYBELLINE DREAM MATTE MOUSE IN COCOA DARK 3 #8




PROS
*The price for starters is amazing, $8 for 18 grams of product? #iyess
*The color matches my skin PERFECTLY! For a drugstore foundation that is quite an accomplishment. I am NW45 in MAC so this color would work probably up to NW47.
*The texture really is like mousse, light and airy. I can tell this product will last for a long time.
*The finish is very matte, after a couple of hours I had less shine on my T-Zone than I usually do with my MAC Studio Sculpt. 

CONS
*Even though the texture is mousse-like, this product is thick so you don't want to apply too much of it or it will look cake-y.
*For the real "airbrushed" look, I think this foundation is best applied with a flat top kubuki or a stipple brush. You can use a foundation brush but it won't look as light.

I GIVE THIS PRODUCT AN OVERALL A-
For $8, it is worth a try.
Until next time chicas.

  3. I'm glad that this worked so well for you! Mousse foundations don't work that well for me, because they tend to dry out my skin, but I have heard really good things about this one.
