Maybelline: Dream Mousse (blush)
Overall Rating: 5
Price: 5
Packaging: 4
Would I repurchase: Yes!!

I got this in Peach Satin from a friend that lives in the USA (we don't have that in Greece yet!) and I LOVE IT!!It's a shimmery (but without being clawn-ish) blush in soft mousse form and with another powder blush or some translucent loose powder on top it lasts all day!It actually dries to a powder-like thing!

I put Milani Luminous on top of Peach Satin and it lasted pretty well for 7 hours,even on my oily skin! (I don't know if it lasts beyond 7 hours,because I took off my makeup at 7 hours!)

The packaging is cute,but it's made out of glass,so be careful with it!!I know sticking your fingers in the pot isn't very good for hygiene,but I can't think of any other type of packaging they could put such a product in and apart from that the packaging is cute!!!

There are 6 shades to choose from: pink frosting,peach satin,soft plum (these are for fairer ladies) whipped strawberries,cloud wine,coffee cake (these are for medium to dark skin color ladies)

Their price varies from $5.99 to $7.29,depending on the store!

GOOOOOOOO GET THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i loveee this blush. I have it in peach satin and want to get in in the other colors. it's so pretty and blendable. The texture is silky and the color is light and shimmery...but not fake shimmery..more like glowing shimmery. you only need a tiny bit, so the small pot will last a long time. ah, it's one of my favorite (if not my favorite) blushes.

I have peach satin and I absolutely adore it. In the summer when I'm not into wearing a ton of makeup, this provides the perfect hint of color and glow. In the winter, it makes the best base ever. I put it on over foundation and then just put some translucent powder over it before using powder blush and the color stays true all day.

I have the plum color, and I love it. I like how it goes on so smooth, it is also good to layer a powder blush over top of it.

This is quite possibly my all-time favorite blush. I bought this in 'whipped strawberries' which is one of the darker shades, since I like my blush to show up fairly dark on my pale skin. It goes on nice and smooth and looks great, even if my skin's in not-so-hot condition. It's a cream-to-powder finish, so it doesn't melt off my skin like cream products do, and it stays on all day. (I usually apply some over foundation or on plain skin and then a bit more over my powder.) The best thing is that I use this maybe 5 times a week (whenever I wear makeup) and the small pot has lasted for months and months. I don't think I'll have to buy another pot until next year, and I bought this product (I believe) shortly after it came out. The best thing is, you can totally control the intensity. A small amount and a lot of rubbing/blending gives you a nice glow without signs that you're wearing blush, while a bit more product shows that you're wearing blush (but if you rub it in well, it still looks natural). And my favorite part is that you can let it dry to a powder and still blend it in if need be.
All in all, my favorite blush. Perhaps my favorite (and easiest) part of doing my MU each morning. Makes me look like less of a zombie.

I got this in Peach Satin and I could barely see it I'm a NC25, but when I put some on my friend who is a NC15 it gave her such a pretty pinkish blush, it does blend really well though and I'll try some other shades before giving up on them

i got this in a swap as an extra, and i actually really liked this product. i was scared at first, because i heard bad things about the dream mousse foundation... but the blush is great. buildable color and it stays put... a lot better than my mac msf's, even. i have the plum one, but now i'm looking to try out more shades.

i purchased this product in the cloud wine color, i am a fairly pale girl and i love how well this blush blends. you can control how dark you'd like the color and it stays pretty well.

personally i did not like the sparkles that much but overall i was impressed.

I've only got Dolly Pink [UK..not sure if they have it elsewhere] and it goes on lovely, easy to blend and doesn't need alot applied. But I felt that sometimes, it felt too greasy [in a way] on my skin.

Comments: I had bought the Peach Satin and Coffee Cake shades, but I didn't like the formulation after a while. I found that it was too powdery when it dried, IMO. I never really liked how it set.

I bought this in Soft Plum and it's great. It blends well and looks natural, and it stays on till the end of the day as long as I set it with some sheer powder. I usually layer it over with a matching powder blush.

The packaging could use some work, though. It's heavy and bulky. And I have to dig out a little bit of product with a spatula each time, which can get messy.

I purchased this product in "Coffee Cake" and love it. It's a great alternative bronzer to use and I love how it shimmers

Great buy!
