Maybelline Dream Cushion Liquid Foundation 30 Sand 30ml

I love this, it gives full coverage

So what is a Cushion Foundation? It's a little sponge that's been soaked with a small amount of watered-down foundation. It comes in a dinky mirrored compact, with an applicator like a foam powder puff. You bop the puff on the sponge, it picks up a bit of foundation, you dab this on your face and spread it around with the puff.It's basically the same as applying foundation with a damp cosmetic sponge, which we should all be doing but mostly don't. It's got novelty value and, should you want to carry foundation around with you, is a lot neater and cleaner than tubes and sponges in your bag.I found Ivory a decent shade for my averagely fair, British skin. The foundation's matte. This method of application gives a light coverage, but I did manage reasonable camouflage of my dark under-eye circles by sticking my finger into the sponge and dabbing a bit extra on.The single compact's fairly cheap and fun. I wouldn't keep buying these: apart from anything else, that's a lot of plastic waste if you're throwing each one out as it gets used up. This tiny amount of makeup won't last long at all, but I can't see why you wouldn't wash the sponge out and refill it. I might try that!

I like this, always loved Maybelline product since a teen, they always perform well.This is a lovely foundation, but use less than you think you need, then build up as required.I have a fair skin and this one was a good match. I would say it's a medium coverage. I finish with a light dust of Maybelline 24 hr matte powder, lasts about 8 hours.

I have never used a foundation in this form but I must say, I love it! Ensure you wet the pad, my skin looked flawless. I’m interested to see how long this lasts me, but am sure I will buy again.

POSITIVES:I love cushion foundations because they are so easy to apply and this is no different.The coverage is light/medium but it definitely buildable for those that want a fuller coverage.Leaves skin looking smooth and even.Doesn't cling to dry spots/texture.NEGATIVES:I chose the palest shade - ivory - and it was far too orange. It then oxidised even further as the day wore on.Limited shades available is a big negative!It does come off on fingers if you touch your face.TAKE AWAY:The main problem I had with this was the colour. My face is a little bit darker than my neck, so with the lightest shade being slightly orange, it didn't work for me.However, if you have a different complexion I'm sure this would be beautiful on you.Worth the money for some people, but sadly not for me.

Really love it

Really good product. Even coverage, but you only need to use a little. Blends perfectly with natural skin tone. Recommend

good coverage but cakes up and rubs after 2 hours even after using a sheer layer
