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.

Christmas Beauty Haul #1

This post is a bit late I know, but I had to wait for the Vera Wang perfume to be delivered to my local store. I am going to share with you the beauty related gifts I received for Christmas, as well as a few extra bits I have bought myself. On Christmas Day I received the Soap & Glory Best Of All gift set, which includes nine full sized products, Soap & Glory Showers That Glee gift set, which includes five full sized products, Nivea All About Luscious Lips gift set, which includes four lip balms, BaByliss Limited Edition Exquisite Hair Dryer set, which includes a hair dryer carry bag, hair brush and two styling hair clips and PRO Beauty Tools Twilight Sparkle Ceramic Styler hair straighteners. Early on Christmas morning I discovered that the Boots.com Christmas Sale had started on Christmas Eve, so I quickly browsed and I found that everything I wanted was out of stock and I already knew my store didn’t do the gift set’s I wanted, so I was pretty annoyed! I managed...

Perfume Power! - Katie Price 'Stunning'

I received this perfume as a present for my 17 th birthday. The bottle design is very simple and feminine. It is diamond inspired, with a diamond shaped cap and the bottle is a classic Hollywood style shape. There is also a silver coloured plastic band around the neck of the bottle, which displays the perfume name, as well as Katie’s name. The fragrance notes are:- Mandarin, Jasmine, Patchouli & other unknown notes, possibly floral! To me it smells fruity and floral, with a hint of musk. I can smell the mandarin, which I think gives the scent an oriental feel. It is slightly a mature scent, which still smells young and fresh, so it appeals to women of all ages. I couldn’t find a list of the full notes, but if you were to smell it, you may be able to pick certain notes out. It also lasts quite a while on your skin. Next also have a perfume called Diamonds , which is almost identical, if you have good ‘scent detectors’, you will notice that there is a slight d...

Graze - Box #6

Welcome to my second Graze delivery of the year. I was quite excited when I first opened it, even though I have tried one of the treats before. A closer look at my treats. Cracking Black Pepper Cashews “Black pepper cashews, roasted cashews & redskin peanuts” I have had cashews before and they are not my favourite, but the black pepper completely changes them and they are actually quite nice and the flavour is not too overpowering. I am not keen on the roasted cashews because they don’t really taste of anything and the bit of flavour they do have is very dry. Lastly, the peanuts are kind of strange. They kind of taste soily and dry, therefore I don’t like these. My Thai “Sweet chilli sauce with baked soy bites” This was my first experience of this one and you can really smell the soy on the bites and they have a funny texture, but are really yummy. I didn’t try the chilli sauce because I didn’t like the scent and I am not big on sauces anyway. ...
