I tried the Maybelline New York Dream Blender this morning. At first I thought the handle on it would be super awkward. Boy was I wrong. It allowed me to apply the foundation all over my face properly without getting foundation all over my hands. It's light and easy to move around. I like that the tip is for creases ( ie. sides of nose, around my mouth ) It made it super easy. I did find the blender to be a bit firm. I was expecting it to be super soft. Either way, I think this product is great, and I will definitely continue to use it. I will also be purchasing it again when needed. Great affordable product.
This is great for a drug store brand and affordable too. It worked very well blending in the new dream foundation by Maybelline too. I would purchase this again just because it's price and effectiveness.

This product was a great makeup tool! I loved how it can be cleaned and reused. It is very smooth and makes putting on the foundation a dream. I followed the "Pro Tip" and wet the sponge first and took off the extra moisture with a towel before applying the foundation to it. This Tip was great. The look was flawless and smooth without being cakey looking.
I love that the Maybelline New York Dream Blender is reusable. I have always disliked using makeup sponges and then throwing them out. It is so wasteful and not environmentally friendly. I like the ability of this uniquely shaped sponge to cover large areas like your cheeks and forehead but the tip makes it easy to get good coverage in tighter areas, such as, around my eyes.
I don't like a heavy amount of foundation so I followed one of the product tips and for lighter foundation coverage, wet and towel dried the blender before use.

Let me be honest, I loved this because of it's shape. It did help in the blending process, its shape made perfect sense as our faces have various curves and angles. It's a nice added touch to come with the foundation.
If I were buying this, the blender would have been a really good selling feature. This is not your average foundation sponge. Cool little add on and I dug it

Thank you for choosing me to review this as part of the Product Review Club!
I have always been a Maybelline makeup user and often go back to it after trying other products.
I really love this blending tool! I usually use my fingers to apply foundation, but the blender makes it much easier to get it on evenly. I also find I don't use as much with the blender. I love the pointy tip for getting under the eyes and around the nose.
I would definitely recommend using this blender for your foundation!
I received this product as a tester. I had never used it before and always used a foundation brush to apply liquid foundation. I love how easy it is to hold and use. The shape of the blender works perfectly to get into every crease and small area to get the foundation into.
I was excited to try this for free from Chick Advisor, but when it came to actually using it, I was disappointed. The beauty blender itself is too small to be effective. The tip is nice for around the eyes and nose, but otherwise it's not very convenient to use on your whole face. Also I find the handle a bit annoying and unnecessary. I much prefer beauty blenders without it, plus it made it a little bit difficult to clean properly. The blender also doesn't really absorb enough water, again making it hard to really give it a deep clean. I'd be worried over time about it getting gross. This would be better if the blender was bigger, didn't have a handle, and absorbed water better. So close, Maybelline, but this is nowhere near as good as the Dream Velvet foundation, which I absolutely love.
How was my experience with this product based on the advertised benefits?
The Maybelline New York Dream Blender definitely worked to blend out the Maybelline New York Dream Foundation quite well.
How would I compare this product to your usual foundation application tools?
What's nice is that the Maybelline New York Dream Blender is nice and dense so it doesn't seem to absorb too much of the foundation. It isn't as soft as the "Beauty Blender," but that was a good thing, because it worked well with the mousse-like consistency of the Maybelline New York Dream Foundation. It was the perfect shape and had the perfect tip to blend out areas of foundation around the nose, eyes, etc.
Would I purchase this product again?
DEFINITELY! I love it to use where I conceal and highlight under my eyes! This is a new staple for me!
Would I recommend this product to a friend?
Already have!
