Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Foundation Review

The Dream Matte Mouse by Maybelline is terrible.  I have had the privilege to be chosen to go up to New York this past summer and test several hundred pricey brand name and cheaper makeup appliances.  The matte mouse not only irritated my skin, but left a sort of powdery look on my face.  Now, I do have quite pinkish skin.  The tones available all seemed too yellow on me, but this doesn't go for everyone. 

There are some good aspects of it, however.  It last a while.  A little bit goes a long way.  And, afterall, it's only a few dollars at your local Wal-Mart...nothing special.  It does the trick in a pinch, but I just hated the way it would lie on my skin.  There was nothing 'natural' about the look I achieved.  It has a mask like finish, and a sort of powdery film builds up around your nose/mouth/eyes, even if you rub it in completely.  It also rubs off easily- I place a hand on my cheek an hour or so after applying, and a dusting of yellow is on my fingertips.
