Happy September everyone!
In my Summer Beauty Essentials post I’d mentioned the Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream. Because I love this product so much, I wanted to give you guys a more informative review on this.
When I first swatched this I was surprised by how light it felt on the skin. On a regular basis I actually use no face products at all apart from moisturiser as I feel like foundation is so heavy on the skin. I guess it depends on the person for what feels comfortable, but for me foundation feels very cakey and sticky - even when I’ve powdered. After I discovered this BB cream, I’d use this if I were to have an extra spotty day for a light coverage.
I will have to say that if you do have a bit more serious flaws like serious redness, hyperpigmintation or spots this will not be very useful as it is a very light coverage. The coverage is buildable though but I’d just stick to dabbing a bit of concealer onto problem areas.
Price: 5/5
Super affordable to anyone. Especially good with people on a budget.
Coverage: 3/5
Not so great for covering more serious flaws but great for an all-rounder everyday natural face product.
Formula: 5/5
One of the main reasons why I love this product. Really nice, creamy consistency that doesn’t look cakey at all (unless you put a ton on obviously).
Packaging: 5/5
Perfect size to just slot into your bag or purse. A nice, simple and sleek packaging which to me looks very pretty and summery.
Overall: 4/5
Great for an everyday face product as it’s not too heavy. This BB cream is the perfect little product for the summer.
I’ve seen that Maybelline has come out with a new Dream Pure BB cream which I might have to try out too!
