Feeling Fresh with Maybelline Dream Fresh 8-in-1 Beauty Balm | Month of BB

Comes in a squeeze tube and a security seal.  Very sanitary =D

Prior of your purchase, you would want to make sure the cap is sealed and the mouth of the tube is sealed.  Mine were of course sealed, and I think this is a major plus on Maybelline’s part because I know that no one has used my tube before me.  It comes in a squeeze tube packaging, which is always nice and more sanitary.  It’s very easy to dispense the product.  The tube itself seems quite small but it’s quite heavy for its size.

The first thing you would notice when you apply this product is that it gives a very fresh and dewy finish. Now this is subject to preference, some people like dewiness, some people like matte.  I personally prefer matte with a glow, which is like you’re glowing from within but I don’t think such thing actually exists in just one tube.  But it could definitely be achieved by using a combination of products.  Anyway, I’m getting off topic.  Since it’s too dewy for my liking and the fact that I have such oily skin, I always set it with a loose powder.

The best way I find to apply this Beauty Balm is with my fingers, because it will give me the highest coverage out of all other methods that I have tried (with a sponge or a brush).  Despite the fact that applying with fingers is not my favourite way to apply anything (I don’t like getting them dirty), I still like to use my fingers with this products.  It is very easy to blend, even with fingers.
