Maybelline Dream Mousse Eye Colour > Reviews (12)

I usually use bonjour eye shadow- and I never use any unbranded eyeshadows- like the ones you get in make up kits from cheap shops, superdrugs or even boots- as I am very careful when it comes to the eye area. I worry alot about using anything glittery (the ones that the glitter falls off, and ends up on your cheeks)- as I worry it will go in my eyes.

Because of my eye area paranoia, I have pretty much stuck with bonjour for the past 6 years, as I knew it came off easily during removal, and didn't irratate my eyes.

But, having loved the superstay lip colour (see my review)- I thought I would try their dream mousse out too- as I wanted to avoid the 'crease' lines I get after several hours wear.

I bought the Caramel Karma shade, as I wanted a nice bronze/gold.

I think this should come with an applicator of some sort- as although application with ones finger works great, you have to clean all the colour off your fingers...I am sure some sort of sponge, or eye make up tool- would be just as good- maybe better than ones finger- but I have had great results using my finger- so I will stick with that for now!

The texture of this is light, fluffy- like a really good chocolate mousse (don't eat it though!). I use my index finger, take a very tiny amount, and apply on my lower lid first. I do that until its even and then I drag the colour upwards- over my upper eye area- just under the eyebrow.

The result is: Lower lid is a rich brown, with a hint of gold/bronze- upper lid is bronze. It looks like I have used two different shades! bonus!

The other thing about it- other than it looks fantastic- like a cream- but without the 'weight' or stickiness...It doesn't crease! It stays on until I take it off, and using simple eyemake up remover- it comes off very easily.

I think it cost about £4, which I think is very cheap for the quality of the product & I am happy to say- it didn't irritate my eyes. I always buy make up from boots, superdrugs, somtimes sainsbury's or debenhams- this was from boots. I am not 100% of the price, as I used points on my advantage card- and didn't even look at the cost. But, I looked it up on the net & it seems to be around £3-4.

I think they could bring out more shades, they list 8 on their site- but I didn't see 8 in boots.
The shades are listed below- but really you need to actually see them for real- to know the colours...I wouldn't describe mine as caramel karma!

Heavenly blue
plum temptation
angelic pink
ivory in the clouds
divine lilac
edan green
caramel karma
blissful beige

They don't have numbers on their site- for each colour- just the colours name.

Definately worth going and trying a tester- I not going back to bonjour now!
