I recieved this as part of the product review club, and I'm in love! I have combination skin, with an oily t zone and dry cheeks. This foundation not only gave great coverage over my acne scars and uneven skin pigmentation, but also did not flake on the drier areas of my skin like other foundations!
I totally loved this product! It went on easy and blends very well with your skin tone. Also it feels as if you have nothing on unlike some foundations which feel like you have a heavy layer on your skin. I would definitely use this product again and again!
I received the Maybelline New York Dream Velvet Foundation for free to test, I can see myself purchasing this product. It gives a smooth finish and hydrates the skin. It even out skin complexion leaving it looking natural and flawless.
Received this product from Chickadvisor and absolutely loved it. The shade was a bit too dark for me but the consistency was velvet like. You barely felt it on your skin. Medium coverage but buildable. Stayed pretty matte for almost 12 hours. Formula is great but I feel like you can only get like 10 good uses out of the bottle although it is a standard 1oz. Overall for drugstore, it is worth it if you have clear combination skin.
Maybelline's Dream Velvet Soft-Matte Hydrating Foundation is a refreshing gel-whipped foundation that leaves complexion perfected and smooth with a velvety, soft-matte finish while skin stays hydrated for 12 hours. it stayed through out the day and made my skin feel soft.
I haven't always been a fan of mousse foundations but thought I would give it a try thanks to #chickadvisor! The foundation went on smooth with even coverage however I felt with my combination skin it ended up feeling like it was still wet or greased.
First time trying out a foundation from MNY and I was pleasantly impressed with how smooth it went on. Using the makeup blender I found the foundation did a great job of providing coverage and going on evenly. Best part that there was no "cakey" effect and didn't leave my skin feeling or looking dry. It only been a few days of usage, but feel this might be a repurchase.

My first impression of the foundation after application was that it left a grey cast on my face and didn't cover my dark spots. However, after finishing the rest of my makeup, I liked how I looked overall. I tried it a second time with a different applicator (not the Dream Blender) the second day, and still felt that it left a grey cast, but this time the coverage was much better. It is a medium coverage foundation. Based on its advertised benefits, it definitely is a matte/soft-matte finish. Unfortunately, if you have oily skin like I do, I find that between 4-6 hours after application, you'll notice oils seeping through. A quick touch-up tends to do the trick. The foundation doesn't seem to cling to dry patches/spots like the L'Oreal Infallible 24-hour foundation does, which is a plus. It claims to be a hydrating foundation, but when I think of hydration, I think of a luminous and healthy complexion - qualities I don't associate with this foundation. Other cons: I'm not a huge fan of the mousse-like consistency very much (much prefer liquid). In addition, a little does not go a long way. I find that I use a lot more product. It also does not look natural or skin-like - you can tell you're wearing makeup. Regardless, I think this is a good everyday foundation and I would recommend it to others.

Thank you chick advisor for sending me this product to review :) my first impression of it was I love the look of the packaging, the foundation was very thick and creamy so would definitely be more of a foundation for the fall or winter months, at first it went on a little streaky because it's so think but with a wet beauty blender it made it alot easier and blended really nice. I found you needed to use alot of product though and it's a light to medium coverage but it feels very silky smooth and light on the skin. As for the sponge it was alot firmer than I'm used to, it did not absorb water very well and I found for foundation and liquid concealer it picked up alot of product which left very little to apply, HOW EVER it worked amazing for cream/solid based concealer. It would probably be amazing for blending a cream contour aswell. All in all I will most likely repurchase the foundation.
I received this product for review.
As someone who never wears foundation, I really liked this product. It was easy to put on and not too wet and messy. It blended out really well, but the coverage wasn't that great and I had to add concealer to certain parts, so that was disappointing. But on the plus side, I forgot I was even wearing the foundation for the whole day and it didn't dry out my face or add extra/show oils. I was really pleased with this foundation and I'll probably add it to my daily makeup routine.
The blender that is recommended to pair with the foundation was pretty great and different compared to the bigger beauty blenders but it took way longer for the application process than I was used to.
