Today, I would be reviewing a foundation that I used not just in these winters, but also used them the previous winters! And, that did not cause any reaction on my sensitive skin even after wearing it for 10 days straight! It’s one of the best drugstore foundation I have ever tried!
What Maybelline says:
Available in a wide range of dreamy shades to suit your skin tone, DreamLiquid Mousse from Maybelline gives you prefect and flawless looking skin in just seconds. It gives great coverage with a 100% poreless airbrushed finish.
ï‚· Ideal for normal skin
ï‚· Oil-free, fragrance-free, Dermatologist-tested, allergy-tested
ï‚· Non-comedogenic – won’t clog pores, safe for sensitive skin
My experience with Maybelline foundation:
– Maybelline foundation comes in a glass bottle and with a lockable pump dispenser. Although since it doesn’t come with a cap, the product gets accumulated around the nozzle; so make sure to wipe it every time you use it.
– The texture is thick but blends easily into the skin with just a few pats. Beginners will love this foundation since it’s easy to work with even with fingers.
– It provides more than medium coverage for my acne scars.
– This foundation also covers the redness on my face very well.
– It makes my pores look really small! Almost un-noticeable!
– The finish is a very natural one. Not matte and not dewy, something in between!
– It’s non-comedogenic and oil free too!
– It does not transfer.
– It does not oxidize (foundation getting darker or orange after some time) on me but after some 6-7 hours, my face looks a little dull. In that case, a little touch up with compact does the job.
These things said, I feel this foundation is suitable only for dry-normal skin types. Oily skinned people need to stay away from this because of its moist thick texture. Oily skinned people can experience oxidation from this foundation like I did in summers (I was just testing it.) Setting this foundation with a loose powder helps a great deal in retaining freshness on the face. The only reason I think I won’t be using this foundation in winters is because I need to mix both of these shades to get my shade, which gets tiring at times! So, if you have dry-normal skin type and can find your shade, do give this foundation a try since the finish is to die for!
Price: Rs.600
Quantity: 30ml
VCB Rating: 4.5/5
Now, when summers are approaching, do you have any favourite foundation for your super oily skin (if you have)? If yes, please do let me know in your comments below 🙂
thast sounds so promissing Heena!! i never thought they are that good!! i am surely picking it up!! but.. will it suit my normal to dry skin sweety??
I too love this foundation but it does not oxidise on my oily skin but yeah it makes my T zone oily after 4-5 hours. i love the dewy look it gives.
Good review Heena..Glad it worked well for U. As U said, It oxidizes on My oily skin.
This is not for my skin type but I've heard such great things about it! Should've tried it in winters!
Greatt.. they seemed to be a little dry for my super dry skin.. though i loved its textures.. tested once in store..
Hated that Maybelline had numbers and not names for these.. but the formula is fab!! 😀 😀
Will try in extreme summers when my skin turns a little normall.. 😀 😀
I have this foundation and I loved it in winter. I love Bourjois HM for summer. I have recently found my HG which is Kryolan Dermacolor Camouflage cream. Nothing beats it!! And the price… cheapest at 350 INR!!
I have never tried out a mouse foundation. Great review hun.

my fav drugstore foundation is lakme invisible….i have tried maybelline mousse foundation which comes in a pot…and i hated it so much….i have tried everything from drugstore nothing works bettter than lakme and covergirl stay fabulous!
My fav is Max Factor Ageless Elixir for summer. Although its creamy, it doesnt make me oily. It provides medium coverage though
Nice review. I like Revlon colorstay and Estee Lauder double wear.
I have this too and love it!! 🙂 It does make skin poreless.
such a well written detailed review!! loved it! I wanted to try this foundation esp for the mousse texture but I guess this won't do much good for my oily/combination skin 🙁
well reviewed. I have not tried this one, seems a sasta and good foundation for daily use.
I have heard tons about this one though never given it a try…I might try it after the summers though..Lovely review dear!
For the summers I am shifting to Powders…No cream or liquid foundations in this humid weather of Mumbai…
Its not for my skin type but in summers I use my HG Loreal True Match Foundation…Lovely review Heena 🙂 <3
Even I have tried it, it does not work for oily skin.
Its so hard to find the right foundation.. sounds reeally nice…. wud love to try in future 🙂
