My Favourite Summer Base

nueyork Friday, December 5, 2014 15 comments

I have said so many times how avoidant I am of bases at all, so when I love a foundation I really love it. The Maybelline Dream Fresh BB is so light it feels like moisturiser on the skin, however does provide quite a nice coverage considering it's a BB. It can really be applied any way you like, a brush, hands or my favourite - a sponge. With a sponge it just melts into the skin and really does look as though you have skipped a base.

While I do love to rave about this, it does have a couple of things to note. I would not recommend wearing this without powder. I feel as though it is too tacky on the skin and could look quite shiny. This is simply a preference, and you may love the look, but I thought I would mention it just incase. I also want to mention the colouring. It is quite orange in tone, and while it isn't a problem for my skin, if you are super pale I would definitely test this one out first.

Overall, I would highly recommend this product if you are in the market for an affordable BB and match the colouring! Have you tried this product and if so, what did you think?

    Sounds like a good summer replacement for foundation!

    You must have amazing skin for you to avoid bases! So jelly.

    I've only tried the Pure BB counterpart.

    I used this for so long as my base! I don't know why I ever stopped using it. Might have to get again, I really loved it too, although I agree with what you said about it being a little orangey - especially if you get the universal shade! <3

    A must try! I usually don't use BB creams much because they don't have much coverage but this one seems nice!

    I didn't even know they had a universal shade! Mine is light, so the orange-ness is definitely confusing. x

    This does have more coverage than others I've tried, but it's still very sheer! x

    We've seen this product everywhere and have not yet tried it! We love things that are more natural and sheer. We'll have to pick this up

    I agree with you on this - after trying a bunch of BB creams over the few years, I've come back to this one. It's so simple, affordable, and does a great job! :)

    I love the blue version of this, I get it when I had acne and I've repurchased because I love it so much!
