Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse Foundation - Smooth as Babyface's Greatest Hits

Kolby

The very first time I tried liquid foundation I was thirteen years old. The only product I'd ever heard of at that age was Cover Girl Clean Makeup, and I don't know if it was the texture or tint of the makeup, or the heavy hand I used in applying it, but it looked enough like a Halloween mask that I washed it off and never again tried liquid foundation for, ah, a few years. I used only powder foundations throughout my twenties, and my skin has always been oily enough for powders to work well for me all year long.

Recently, though, I noticed that as the weather has grown cooler, my skin has gotten a bit drier, and my go-to powder foundation no longer compliments my skin the way I'd like it to. So, I've decided to conquer my fear of liquid foundation, and I've begun this journey by trying a drug store brand (I'm not too keen on shelling out $20+ on a department store brand of makeup if it's something I'll use once and then toss out in disgust), and it turns out the foundations they're offering in stores today are quite a bit different from the selection that was available to the 8th Grade version of Kolby.
