MAYBELLINE DREAM MATTE POWDER/review

I am on the hunt for a setting powder.  I have the Mac Studio Fix powder, but it's so, so.  I bought the Maybelline Dream Matte powder on a BoGO, and really don't like it at all.



REASONS WHY:
-No coverage at all
-Doesn't mattify the face
-Looks shiny which turns out to look oily, then be oily
-Doesn't apply evenly
-Very powdery, powder everywhere when you put a brush into it

So, I am back on the hunt.  I really think powder is one of those things you could find in a drugstore brand.  I want something that could be a setting powder with a light hand or just a powder foundation with the right brush.  

Any thoughts or suggestions?  

What's are your is your drugstore product that you will never buy high end?

MAYBELLINE SENSATIONAL - NEARLY THERE 205

Happy Monday everyone! I had a busy weekend & I am hoping for a good week(positive thoughts).

I bought another one of the Color Sensational lipsticks in Nearly There #205. I really like my first one & a bogo was going on. I bought another Maybelline 24 hr. foundation. I will review it, but I'm trying to use different ways of application to see what's best, but I like it.

This is the lightest color in the nudes & it's perfect for me. I don't have to use a liner. I put it on like Chapstick. The lipsticks are moisturizing, not drying. The smell on the pink one is better, but this isn't so bad. So before you buy smell the lipstick.

It's shiny & glittery, but doesn't feel like a gloss.

Here it is on my lips, no liner. It looks almost like Nars Orgasm blush.


Have you tried the new Color Sensational? What do you think of there staying power?

How was your weekend? Any makeup hauls?

MAYBELLINE SUPER STAY 24HR.& COLOR SENSATIONAL HAUL

I have been reading some great reviews on the @4 hr. foundation and new lippies, so I went out to give them a try.

Foundation: Nude
Colorsensational: 005 Pink Sand

I have used the foundation the last couple of days & it really stays put. Its rich & creamy & glides on. It feels more creamy than the Colorstay with just as much coverage. I'll have to wear it longer & let you know how I really feel.

This is the swatch of the Pink Sand lipstick. The colors are really pigmented, smell good, & stick to the lips. i think these are really nice.
Have you tried the 24hr. foundation yet? What are your thoughts?

What is your fave drugstore brand makeup?
