Review: Maybelline Dream Nude Airfoam

 

102_0308

Recently, Maybelline launched their new spring collection, which included a brand new foundation.  This was raved about in the beauty world and I was very excited to get my hands on it.  However, after two weeks of using this product, I’m very unimpressed.

The idea behind this foundation is actually pretty nifty in my opinion.  It’s almost like a hair mousse consistency when it comes out of the can.  You simply give the can a few couple shakes and spray it out. This is actually one of the few drugstore foundations that comes with a pump. You need to be careful when you press the pump because it is very easy to get way more product then you need and much goes to waste.

Now to the actual product.  After spraying out the foundation, when you start to spread it out on your face and fingers, the foam turns to a creamy consistency.  But you have got to act fast if you want to blend it in because it dries extremely fast. Another thing I didn’t like is the fact that you can’t even tell that its on.  My Neutrogena Tinted Moisturizer has more coverage! This foundation line doesn’t come in very many shades, which I was kind of disappointed in.  I’m normally the lightest shade possible but it seemed a bit to light, so I went the next shade they had, which was classic ivory, but this was slightly too dark, which since it doesn’t have much coverage is an okay thing.  It acts more like a bronzer than anything.

All in all, if your looking for a fun new foundation to try and you don’t want a lot of coverage, this may be the one for you.  But if you need a medium to full coverage foundation, I suggest the Revlon Colorstay or Covergirl Nature Lux.  I hope you found this review helpful.
