Maybelline Dream Nude Air Foam

I have the shade 170 Nude which was part of a birthday present and my friend got the perfect shade for me! YAY as I had been wanting to try a different foundation as im still new to foundations.

It's a small bottle that you must shake before using and has a pump. I quickly learnt that a lot of product comes out so you need to push down the pump very gently. Even though it is a small bottle, I feel like it will last for a while. It also comes with instructions on the back which I found helpful for my first use.

I apply a small amount to the back of my hand. It comes out exactly like hair mousse would. I applied to my face in sections as stated and rubbed in with my fingers. It blended real easy. I also then used my foundation brush and went over my face to make sure it was a even application.

It does become quite runny/liquid like as all mousses can do so you will need to rub it in for a while until it dries but once dry, you are left with a matte finish. It does have a very slight scent but I can't put my finger on what it reminds me of?

A big con about this foundation is that it doesn't have very good coverage. So you will need to build it up. In saying that, some days I prefer a light coverage so I'll still use this.

I am happy with this foundation but prefer to use it on top of my BB Cream for extra coverage. Would be happy to recommend it if you are looking for a light foundation.

This make up wasn't bad but I found the foam a bit hard to control, takes a bit of getting used to to make sure you don't end up with way too much!

This product claims to be lightweight, however it feels super heavy once on your skin. The principle of it is good- and you really do only need the smallest amount to do the job, however after a day of wearing it, i found my skin felt horrible. The product was long lasting and the colour match was good for my skin tone- I find it hard to find the correct colour so that was a bonus.

i wasn't a huge fan of this foundation. it has a very very light coverage i found, but if i tried to build it up then i went orange and cakey. i also found the foam quite hard to work with!

The foam seems fun but that's all that's good about it the entertaining factor after that it's not very good it's not good for my oily skin and has no coverage I still continued to use it with no lasting positive results. If feels soft and delicate being a foam but once applied it's sleaky being such it's hard to get good coverage and it just moves around my face. Slip sliding.

I have mixed opinions about this foundation. Lets start with the bottle, perfect size to hold, however the foundation comes out WAY to fast, you only have to barely touch the top to end up with too much. Coverage was, well, average, good if you are on the run and need something quick, but you definitely will still want to cover it with a good foundation-powder to make sure you get complete coverage. It is lightweight, and does not feel oily like a lot of other foundations, which I like. The colouring tends to change slightly after applying it also which can be a pain. Overall, I don't think I will be buying this again.

This was always going to be one of those products that everyone wanted to try for the sake of curiosity. As the concept is something quite different. First up it needs a really good shake up to mix the product suffiently so it doesn't squirt out in a liquidy mess. Once you get a handle on that I found the pump easy to use. Just need to be gentle so you don't end up with too much. At first I was really surprised at how amazing it actually looked and felt on my skin. Good coverage and evened out my skin tone. Totally light weight feel. In fact did all the things I wanted it to and the big bonus was, for the first time I had a foundation that looked like I wasn't wearing anything at all. No makeup settling into pores, no caking, no evidence of anything being there at all. It completely blended into my skin and looked amazing. I was happy. But then when I glanced in the mirror an hour or two later I was yellowy orange.. looked very much like I had a fight with the tanning booth and came off second best. I never really experienced oxidisation on this level before. It was also not at all water/sweat proof. As soon as anything damp or wet comes into contact with it, it washes right off. So if Maybelline had spent a bit more time perfecting the issues before they released it. It might have been quite a good product. But alas it's not a keeper for me. Pity because I really wanted to like it.

Thank goodness I paid $5 for this because its not good at all. On hot days I wouldn't wear this as it makes you oily. Also this transfers to my hoody collar. The colour I chose was a good match but that's about all. I keep this for if I didnt want to waste my good stuff and I just needed make up for a few hours max.

I really disliked this product... it was so oily and just yuck! When I tried to get some out it was like water, and just dribbled everywhere. I felt like I was lathering my face in oil. The colour was off, the texture was horrible. I washed it off straight away. Was so disappointed!
