Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream Review

Firstly,  I just want to say that the reply button on my blog doesn't seem to be working but I do reply to all of your comments by email or leave a comment over on your blog. Just wanted to say sorry for that.

It feels like a while since I've done a real review on a product so today I thought I'd review this new purchase of mine: Maybelline's Dream Pure BB Cream.

What it claims:

Our Dream Pure BB Cream is a 1-step wonder for healthy-looking skin today and clearer skin tomorrow.

• Clears acne
• Conceals imperfections
• Minimizes look of pores
• Reduces appearance of redness
• Adjusts to skin tone
• Hydrates and smoothes
• Enhances and clarifies skin
• Is oil-free, with a lightweight feel

2% salicylic acid is one of the highest percentages of this powerful blemish-fighter that you can get without a prescription, yet it's gentle enough to use every day. 

Maybellines Dream Pure BB cream is a twist on their original Dream BB Cream. It's purpose is to treat acne using salicylic acid whilst still giving your skin some coverage whilst looking natural and fresh.

I've found that this BB cream gives a lovely natural coverage which is perfect for everyday use. It looks lovely layered too if you want it to have a higher coverage as its extremely sheer. It is very lightweight as it claims.

This is a very watery bb cream, it remind me of MAC's Face and Body Foundation but I feel better about wearing it as it is good for your skin. 

This BB Cream comes in a squeeze tube which is great to get just the right amount of product you want. It contains 30ml of product which is average for a foundation. 

The downside to this product is the colour selection. There are only five shades ranging from Light to Deep. I don't struggle with a colour because Medium seems to match my skin great but some might struggle with the lack of selection. 

Price

This BB cream is one of the cheapest you'll find at just £6.99. I think this is a great price as I seem to reach more for this than my Smashbox BB Cream, mostly because I feel like its better to be putting on my skin and I like the natural coverage. 

I really would recommend this BB Cream, I will definitely be repurchasing it when I run out.

Maybelline Colour Sensational Lipstick Review

Hi guys!
Today I'm going to be reviewing the Maybelline Colour Sensational Lipsticks.

I bought one of these just because I wanted a bright lipstick and the colour of one in the range jumped out at me. I bought it in 900 Hot Plum which is a really bright purple colour. After using it, I found that it was a really good lipstick and was glad I bought that one. It was super pigmented and looked great on your lips. I thought it could just be a fluke like my Rimmel Kate Moss lipstick was so I did not purchase any more.

Then for christmas I received two more of these lipsticks in 895 On Fire Red and 870 Shocking Coral. I really like both colours, they're quite bright but I find that if you blot it with a tissue, the colour fades for a more subtle look. These lipsticks stay on for ages! I swatched them on the back of my hand Christmas morning and they stayed on for a good few days after.

The only thing that I would change about these products would be the packaging because they look quite cheap. The way they are see through and kind of tacky. It's nothing to do with the product itself and it's really picky but if I had to say something, thats what I would change.

Overall, I would highly recommend these lipsticks. If I ever need a new lipstick, I automatically go to this range. These are my favourite drugstore lipsticks.
