Hey dolls. I caved and finally bought one of the Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blushes. I had read about these on several blogs and I wanted to try them for myself.
I chose Plum Wine to try because it seemed like such a lovely shade for these cold winter months.
I had read that these aren't very pigmented and rather sheer, so I only got one to try first. The bouncy factor is rather novel. It reminds me of an ink pad. I used my fingers to apply this product because I'm not sure if a brush would pick up much pigment. At first, I was rather disappointed at how sheer it was on my cheeks but I was able to build the color up to a nice and natural flush.
Swatch: Plum Wine in natural lighting
The blush itself is encased in a plastic case which flips open and close. It snaps shut tightly so that the blush does not dry out.
Final Thoughts
Pros:
- Novel cosmetic-nothing on the quite market like it
- Variety of shades available
- Sheer but buildable color
- Melts into skin with a creme finish
Cons:
- Pricey at $8 for drugstore blush
Repurchase? Yes, after trying this one, I wouldn't mind picking up another shade to try.
xoxo
