I have been using this product for a few weeks now and it's very good full coverage foundation. I do find you really need to blended in to make it looks natural. I got it free with the review club and it came with a Beauty Blender. I recommend using the blender to get the most natural-looking coverage great job at covering your pores and imperfections. A small amount is all that you need. I have oily skin and did need to still blot after several hours but still love the full coverage. #maybellinecan #gotitfree #maybellinedreamvelvet
I received this product to try as part of Chickadvisor's Review Club. I was really impressed with the coverage that this foundation provided, it covered my redness and evened out my skin tone. I love how there were many shades to choose from which is not the case with other foundations. It lasted all day on my skin so I would recommend this!
This has a pretty standard price as far as drugstore foundations go. I paid about 10$ for it. I like that it comes in a squeeze tube instead of a jar like the Dream Matte Mousse for sanitary reasons. The color selection isn't amazing if you have darker skin. I use shade 92 Caramel, and there's only one shade deeper. The consistency definitely is thicker than your average foundation, but this isn't a liquid formula. It has a thick, whipped consistency. It takes me 2 layers to get the desired coverage, and I don't have a lot to cover. Just a spot here and there and some redness around my nose. It has a nice satin finish, but it doesn't set down completely, so you will need to powder it. Lasting time on my skin, which is combination/oily, is about 6-7 hours before it starts to break down around my nose from the oils.
I think the stuff works really good considering it only cost me $12 when I usually spend $40. I mean, I probably will still buy my Clinique foundation but this is a nice lightweight alternative. Makes my skin look way more even!!
I used this foundation with both a beauty blender and a brush. I noticed that you get more coverage with the brush. It it is medium coverage and it did start breaking up around my nose about 5 hrs after I applied it. It didn't really bother me & it has no scent which I love. It does feel thick when you're applying, but once it's on the skin it doesn't feel like anything. It also doesn't cling to any dry patches on my skin which a lot of foundations tend to do.
I really liked Maybelline New York Dream Velvet foundation. The soft mattening effect on the skin but it does not have a drying effect. I liked how it was light weight and hydrating. I like a natural look of a foundation and this is really nice, not cakey at all. The dream blender works great. Gets the foundation filling into the pores and the foundation goes lightly and evenly on skin. Overall great product!
I really enjoyed this product. I didn't know what to expect when I first tried it but it goes on well and is soft and silky on your skin. My skin still feels amazing after 12 hours of wear. This makes the current product that I am using feel oily/greasy in comparison. I would purchase this product again and I would recommend it to family and friends as well!
Awesome product! This foundation really is velvety smooth and leaves my skin looking flawless. I got the lightest shade 05 and it's perfect for my porcelain skin.
I was thrilled to be selected to try #MaybellineDreamVelvet #gotitfree thanks to @MaybellineCAN and the @ChickAdvisor #ProductReviewClub offer. When I opened the tube I found that the foundation did not have an unpleasant scent. It also had the ideal medium thick consistency that is perfect for evenly covering your skin. The rich, lightweight pigment in the foundation coated the surface of my skin evenly. I did not need a large amount of foundation to achieve a flawless matte finish. I can honestly say that it feels like I’m not even wearing foundation. The formula offers complete coverage that spreads quickly over your skin and stays in place. My skin immediately felt hydrated by the cool foundation. I appreciate the added hydration; especially with the brutally cold winter we’ve had. Not only did my skin have a professional looking finish but it felt soft and smooth. I was impressed by how easy it was to use the #MaybellineDreamVelvet foundation and how effortless it was to achieve a velvety finish. I will certainly keep using this fabulous, hydrating foundation that helps you look and feel beautiful.
Absolutely loved this product. Works very well and feels amazing on my skin and ut didn't make me break out like most foundations i have tried. Highly recommend this product
