Maybelline Dream Matte mousse foundation review

ACCORDING TO ME :
PROS

• Can apply using your finger’s but if you are like me and have a bit of blending problem then try using a sponge or brush, I was 1st using the MAC powder brush and found it fine but later on I just tried with a sponge and it looked ever better.

• Very little is needed so it goes a long way.

• Its a very light fluffy whipped mousse and it gives a matte finish.

• Gives an air finished even flawless look without making you look like a Barbie doll

• Medium coverage (it’s what I like), I feel it looks more natural that way.

• Use it as concealer also for my eye area it does not fully do the job but it reached half way.

• I apply it at about 8am and then remove it by 5pm, it does stay on pretty well, but I do have to bolt my skin now and then as I have an oily T zone.

• Does not slide off.

• Has no SPF, you all must be wondering why this is in the pro list well cos when I go for function’s, etc where there will be definite photo moments my face will not look ghost like as this foundation has no SPF. When I use it for daily purpose I just apply an SPF moisturizer and then apply foundation on top of it.

CONS

• Not many shades available.

• Gets transferred onto my collar.

• Does not moisture the skin that much (so I always apply moisturizer 1st and then apply this foundation). If you are one of those people who have dry skin patches just keep an eye out on those problem area’s and moisture them more.

• Applying too much will end up making your skin cakey, to solve this problem you will have to blend well.

• Hygiene is a concer as one has to double dip for the product.

THIS IS HOW IT LOOKS / SWATCHES :

E.L.F. haul

This is the 1st time I am ordering E.L.F. products online... It took about a month to reach me..

These are all the items

elf studio powder brush
has a flat top, bristles are soft, its dense

elf 32 piece eye shadow collection..
Comes with mirror attached and a sponge applicator which I am not going to use.. I find them hard to clean..
It is compact and does not feel that heavy, I think it is perfect for travel purpose..

elf compact mirror
It has dual mirror's.. One is magnified and the other is normal..
It's very sleek, very light in weight.. The color black gives it a posh look I feel.. It has a carry on pouch which is made of a fabric which feels like velvet..

elf eye primer & eye sealer
to use the sealer part you have to unscrew the lid, it is in liquid format and has a white brush for an applicator
the sealer reminded me of lipstick, apply the product directly on the lid and blend it out

I got this free from elf..
I would have preferred if they had sent me something like pencil liner or eye brow shaper as I did buy the 32 piece eye shadow..

elf liquid eye liner in the shade midnight
I actually wanted the shade black but it already was out of stock.. This is a deep blue so it's kind of close to black.. I like the handle, its sleek and long.. Perfect for supporting the wand while doing winged shape liner's...

elf mechanical eye lash curler
Has a clasp to keep the curler in closed position at all times.. A rubber bush has been placed so that their is not much harm to your lashes.. Also an extra pair of bush is given..
elf studio stippling brush
Another brush which has been spoken about a lot by all beauty guru's

Maybelline mini haul

I bought these things from the beauty counter in West Side store which is situated inside Forum Mall (Koramangala area), Bengaluru city [INDIA]

got only 3 item's...

I'll start by showing you the lasting drama gel liner


what to expect inside the box


consisting looks really creamy, loving the intense black

this pot is sooo cute to look at :-))

really nice that is comes with it's own brush, saves the hassle of buying one

brush has a cap which protects the bristles from damage, in whole it's easy as a carry on

the bristles don't have that stiff or soft feel..

3yrs life time is good for those who wont use this product often..


now lets check out the lipstick
the red see through cap was eye catching for me




does suit my skin tone...


now to check out the lip gloss


you can see here that the applicator is white in color.. I think that is good, that way while cleaning I can know when it's enough..
After applying the gloss wipe the tip of the applicator and only then put it back inside...
Doing so you can avoid growth of bacteria..
