Maybelline | Dream Pure BB | Review | Drugstore Darling


Maybelline Dream Pure BB tinted moisturizer

Hey Beauty Lovers!

Today I'm reviewing Maybelline's Dream Pure 8-in-1 BB.
I have never been a big fan of BB (Beauty Balms).
I always found them to be glorified tinted moisturizers at double the price.
The only one I liked was Urban Decay's Naked Skin BB but it was too dark for my fair skin.
But now Maybelline has made me a believer in BB!

Back of Maybelline Dream Pure BB tube with Drug Facts and ingredients (See Maybelline website)

Name of Shade: Light 100
Finish: Natural
Formula: Liquid
Coverage: Sheer
Skin Type it Works Best For: Normal to oily skin
Waterproof: No
Smudges/Streaks/Runs: No/No/No
Blendable: Yes
Lasts for: 6-8 Hours on its own, All day under foundation

Swatch of Maybelline Dream Pure BB


Pros: Smooth and easy application.
 This cream comes in 5 shades.
The one I use is Light 100 which works perfect for fair skin.
Another benefit is the price! It is not as expensive as most BB creams on the market and it is just as good as the pricier ones. 
It looks lovely on its own but I've also used it under foundation when I've needed extra coverage and it provides a nice base for the rest of my makeup. 
Not only is this a nice sheer coverage that smooths and hydrates but this formula also has 2% salicylic acid to help fight acne, which is a big plus for me.

Cons: Not waterproof, but it doesn't claim to be.


Star Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭑ (4 out of 5)

Would I Repurchase: Yes.


Final thoughts:  I highly recommend this product. I've been using it everyday since I bought it.
A little goes a long way with this balm so it will last a while.
It also delivers on all 8 of its claims: 
Clears acne ✔
Conceals Imperfections ✔
Minimizes the look of pores ✔
Reduces the appearance of redness ✔
Adjusts to skin tone ✔
Hydrates & Smooths ✔
  Mattifies ✔
 Oil-free ✔

This is an ideal product for teenagers who are battling acne but don't want (or need) to wear a heavy foundation or concealer.
Or for anyone who likes a lighter, more natural look, especially for the summer months.
