Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream Review – Is It Worth Buying?
Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream Review – It’s an 8 in 1 beauty balm, skin perfector with a titanium dioxide sunscreen, broad spectrum spf 30. The eight skin perfectors are blurs imperfection, enhances, brightens, adjusts to skin tone, smoothes, hydrates, protects with spf 30, and 0% oils and other heavy ingredients.
First impression… when I saw Maybelline’s Dream Fresh BB Cream in the store I thought…wow, it’s so tiny. It’s 30 ml., 1.0 FL. ounce. You probably get about 2 weeks or less of use, out of this tube.
The price was very affordable $8-9 at most drugstores. I wouldn’t have gotten it if the price was any higher. It was very affordable so I decided to give it a try.
There is a selection of colors available, so points for that. There’s light, light/medium,medium, medium/deep, and deep. I’m light/medium…..nc 25-30 in mac powder foundations. The drugstore I went to had samples where you can test for your color, which was great and rare. I think that differs between drugstores, though.
My take…
- too sheer of a coverage, it’s okay for light makeup-stay home, kind of day
- spf 30 great but not both UVA &UVB sunscreen
- bit greasy means more blotting and powdering, which I never do
- smell is okay, not overwhelming like others…Ganier BB cream
- it has okay staying power as long as you blot and powder
- out of the 8 skin perfectors, not really sure about 5. I don’t really see blurring of imperfections, enhancing, brightening or smoothing. And I’m not sure about 0% oils, it feels greasy.
so 3 out of 8, it adjusts to skin color, because it’s so sheer. It protects with spf 30, and I’ll assume hydrates but I can’t say for sure.
Simply, it’s just okay, not in love with it. I probably will use it before my other BB cream…the Garnier BB cream. I do prefer the Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream over the Garnier BB cream. I probably won’t repurchase this one, but I am glad I bought it. I just had to try it for myself. I will use it but, only under certain conditions. Because it’s on the greasy side, I would have to wear it only when the weather is cooler. I probably will try an asian BB cream next, any suggestions? I don’t think America’s got the edge on this market yet.
