Review: Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream

When this product was first advertised, I knew I would be interested. I wanted something lighter than foundation for daily wear and after trying a couple of samples of this I decided to purchase it in full size.

The packaging is a slightly rounded plastic tube. It has a simple design and looks quite plain. It also has a small wide nozzle, which dispenses the product. When you twist the cap off, some of the product does seep out a little. The formula is kind of light and wet. You get 30ml of product in the tube and I have shade Light.
This BB cream is supposed to contain eight benefits in the one tube. It should blur imperfections, feel fresh, give your skin a natural glow, compliment your skin tone, look smooth,  hydrate, protect with SPF 30 and be oil free and non-greasy.

This is the only BB cream I’ve tried, but I really like it. It blends well and spreads evenly and can last up to eight hours and then some. It gives your complexion a natural glow and makes your face appear smooth and fresh. It doesn’t feel greasy and a little goes a long way to blur any imperfections. Although it doesn’t look like you are wearing it when you have blended it in, it does compliment your skin tone and hydrates. You don’t even have to use a moisturiser before applying! The only problem I have is that I still used concealer and powder because I feel I need the added extra, but it is nice to have a break from foundation.

Overall I really liked the results when using this BB cream and it is definitely worth spending the money on. However, if I was to re-purchase I would probably get the newer Dream Pure BB Cream, because it works the same but is targeted towards blemished and spot prone skin.

Glossybox #17 - October 2015

I can’t believe that we are nearly half way through October already! It seems like the year has flown by recently. I wasn’t really looking forward to this box, but it has surprised me a bit. Here is what I received this month: So Susan Haute Light Highlighting Pencil | £15.00 | I prefer a highlighter like Benefit High Beam, so it will be interesting to see how this works. It does come across relatively creamy for a sharp jumbo pencil. Talika Photo-Hydra Day Moisturiser | 30ml - £24.85 | Another moisturiser for your face is always very useful.  I can’t really see it being anything special. Nicka K Airbrush Blending Sponge | £6.50 | This looks quite a bit like the BeautyBlender, but has a different shape. I imagine it will do the exact same thing, but it is a lot cheaper option. I am interested in giving it a try, although I prefer the old finger and hand method of applying foundation and concealer. Jelly Pong Pong Play Paint in Damson | £8.95 | It ...

HUDA BEAUTY Purple Haze Obsessions Palette

I’ve previously only tried one HUDA BEAUTY mini palette before, but this one really caught my eye. I almost bought the Khaki version too. I eventually decided on only picking up the purple one as I wasn’t massively impressed with the Topaz Obsessions Palette I previously tried.   THE PACKAGING The packaging is made of translucent purple plastic and it is square shaped. It just has the palette branding across the front in place of a design and it has a clip closing, which you lift up to reveal the square eyeshadow pans arranged in threes across an opaque matte purple base. The eyeshadows do not have names. There is also a little mirror on the underside of the lid. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get nine 0.64g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Metallic (ME) and Shimmery Topper (ST) finishes.   ·          Smokey Shades ·          Buttery Mattes ·          Intense Metal...
