“Excellent.. For a few months.”

written by fletchy93 on 23/05/2013

I first bought dream matte mousse about a year ago and I fell in love. The colours were perfect, the application was very easy and it was nice to wear. It blended well into my skin and it was easy to put bronzer on top, it also acted like a concealer for the few spots I had missed. It was all going well and I honestly thought I had found one I could wear for years and years, until my skin became seriously oily on my t-zone. It no longer sits in my skin very well, ending up with make-up all over my fingers at the end the day, and it began sliding off. It's getting to the point where I feel I need to take it all off and start again every few hours. I will never blame the product for this though, certain products won't suit certain people, I appreciate this, but I have never got on with liquid foundation either. Plan B now!

To tell you a bit about my skin to help those unsure whether it would suit them, it has never been in bad condition. I blush easily and this hid that well, hiding my bright red cheeks also. It's not particularly dry (not anymore) and has only recently been getting oilier and oilier. I'm ashamed to admit it, but I generally wear make-up every day (have to for my job so is now more routine than a must) so this could also be affecting the state of my skin. I'm not spotty although I do break out on the odd occasion, like every woman does. I wash my face morning and night and I tend to take my make-up off with a make-up wipe beforehand as I wear a lot of eye make-up.

Dream Matte Mousse is honestly the best make-up product I have ever bought. I am extremely disappointed that my skin's decided to do this to me, it obviously just needs change! (Quite looking forward to testing some slightly more upmarket ones to see if they help!). For the money, this product is very good. One pot lasts me around a month and I am happy to spend £8 a month on my face. I hope this helps all those lost sheep out there that are struggling to decide!
