Review on Maybelline Makeup Dream Medium Skintones by Lauren Allen

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Light and matte best in BB creams

I never wear foundation but I love makeup. I powder a little with glitter, sometimes I use blush, highlighter and bronzer, but that's about it. That was the perfect solution for me. I use it with a wet beauty blender (which always helps to smooth out opacity and pores) and it gives off light and evens out my tones. And most importantly, I feel like I'm wearing nothing compared to the basic foundation I've been looking for. What attracted me is that it dries to a matte finish, even on my oily T-zone (I use moisturizer at night). Knowing this product sits on the cheaper end of the BB/Foundation spectrum, I wasn't expecting it to cover and conceal my thin skin. Lines or pimples and neither should you. It should be used as a stand alone BB/foundation cream with very light coverage. I feel like people with bad product reviews don't wear it like a true 6 in 1 and add in moisturizers and foundation. But it's just not the full-coverage foundation some are looking for. Again, this is a VERY lightweight cover, so if you need more, look elsewhere.

Pros
  • Crossing my fingers
Cons
  • Lots of stuff
