Real Reviews: Maybelline Dream Mousse Bouncy Blush

Hey there! This is a new series called "Real Reviews"! I'll be reviewing products That I feel should be reviewed or reviews you requested! (Send me requests by emailing me! marissasmakeupmania@hotmail.com) Let's dive into the review!


I recently tried Maybelline Dream Mousse Bouncy Blush in Fresh Pink. Now I have to be honest- I only bought this because it was supposed to be bouncy. I had tried the other dream mousse blushes and found they were average quality so, I figured it'd be the same with this one. It wasn't. I'm not saying its a bad blush, just not a great one. Its very sheer and you need about four applications to get the color you see in the package. Also, (though this isn't necessarily a bad thing) it was extremely hard. If you've tried any dream mousse products you know that they are very smooth and creamy. This however was relatively hard, The one thing I love about this blush is that it really does bounce! I probably play with it more than I use it aha. 


Bottom Line: This product is great if you want very sheer pigmentation but, if your looking for anything else don't buy. 

Weird Beauty Fact Of The Day!

Ever wonder why there's a fresh sprig of parsley on your dinner plate when you're at a restaurant?  It might be that your host wants to help you avoid awkward conversations later. It's thought that parsley contains antibacterial properties helpful for fighting bad breath. To make it work for you, chew on a fresh sprig–dried versions won't work.

1) Brush your hair.

2) Put your hair up into a loose ponytail but, one strand out.

3) Now take you ponytail and loop it through the hair tie but not all the way. You should have created a sort of loop.

4) Separate the loop into two sections. Then, take the stand you left out and bobby pin it to your head. Tada! All done!

If you wanna watch how it's done here is the vid I learned how to do this from: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MWqyGtzclQ&feature=list_related&playnext=1&list=SPD4D5DE6CCCF00AF4
