This has been one of the best products for my skin shade, I have VERY pale skin and this is one of the palest foundations I have been able to find. It also has a fantastic coverage and goes on nice and evenly.

I find this one lasts well especially in the heat however if you are some one who suffers from dry skin this isn't for you! I tend to find if i use this one to much it can become a bit flaky and makes my skin look dry and like it is peeling so I tend to flick between the mouse one of this and the liquid, I do tend to save this one for best and going out.

Would probably be very good for someone who suffers from oily skin!

This foundation has its ups and downs. It is fairly priced, lasts a long time, and has decent coverage. However, for me, the coverage does not last. Even with primer and finishing spray, it still wears off my cheeks and chin. It also flakes off and looks very cakey on my forehead. Needless to say, I will stick to my liquid foundations.

This foundation was good when I first started using it. Then, I slowly realized that by the end of the day (even with a primer) it would flake off my my forehead and I thought it was just my skin peeling! My cheeks are also very red, and it does a good job of covering it. For the the first hour, that is. I also find it impossible to use your fingers, because it gets under your nails if they're long and it's just a mess. In natural lighting, it looks awful. I find it only looks good when you're in a dimly lit room. The container lasts quite a long time, for me at least. After I finish this foundation though, I won't be repurchasing it.

I tried the lightest shade and it was orange on my skin. This does not cover any blemishes and looks terrible over concealer. It does not cover acne at all and leaves a dry gross finish that comes off easily. When i had darker, acne free skin it was ok but it just does not have the coverage i need.

Well I bought this product for something of a concealer, I was surprised by the price tbh, I definitely think it is a bit over priced. But other than that I love this product, I have had it for about 2 months now and I have only used up a little bit, even though I use it everyday. Its great and I love it, but it is not to good for oily and acne prone skin which i have because i have to reply it a couple of times through the day, but with the good powder to set it, it works fine for me.

so, i firstly bought this product because i was drawn to the idea of a mousse foundation being in a jar instead of the more commonly known, squirty can thingy. My initial plan was not to use as a foundation but more of a concealer because as many people have said, it has very good coverage. i also liked the way it looked when applied. i applied this to my nose, chin and in between my eyebrows just for spot cover-up and redness. it looked very even and just heavy enough to cover but not cakey. instead of scooping the product from the jar, try dabbing at the mousse and smoothing on in small sections. this might help with any uneven-ness or dry patches forming. this product was overall, very well packaged but there really wasn't much product in the jar, but substantial enough for what i payed which was $15 CAD. the product was very nice and i think this would work best on oily or very oily skin because it was a little drying on my skin and i think it does live up to its name. dream matte mousse foundation (concealer in my case) was a very successful product for me.

This worked wonders for me! My skin is both oily and dry, and after putting this on, I saw no shine :) But it dried it out a tad bit. Not a lot, just a little. Ignoring that, it had the greatest cover up! Really, the best foundation I've used. And you never run out of this fast because you only have to use a little! :) I would recommend this to anyone!

I had heard so many varied reviews on this product. Some said it was bad, others said it was the best they'd ever tried. So, I gave it a go.

Naturally, I have quite oily skin but manage to control it with regular cleanser and moisturiser. I scrubbed my face and moisturised, before putting on this Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse in Nude shade. I applied it everywhere in a thin layer as I usually have quite clear and fresh skin, so I don't wear makeup on a daily basis.

I was torn with the results. It left my face smooth and my complexion was glowing and even, but in some areas, it would go very dry and start to flake off. I don't have dry skin whatsoever and so this was a surprise. The texture and overall appearance was fantastic, I was initially drawn to the title of a mousse foundation. But it left me dissapointed.

Even with a thin layer, it started to flake off my face and leave some areas very dry. The price is quite cheap and the packaging was great, but the product was not! Do not buy!

I did not like this foundation at all I have normal to dry skin applying this foundation with a brush or fingers just left it looking extremely cakey and was not easy to blend at all. The range of colours and overall coverage of the foundation was good but it was not at all as good as expected.
