Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush Pink Plum

I found out about these blushes first from Musings of a Muse, and was truly intrigued. I have to say I'm still on the fence about this blush but this is my initial impression.

At first touch you definitely feel the bounce in these bouncy blushes. Kinda spongy and springy, it's not a feeling I have ever felt before. It's kind of like a thick jello if I had to try and describe it. It's creamy and powdery at the same time.

I'm not really sure why they just didn't make it a cream. The consistency kind of limits the pigmentation in my opinion. It does leave a nice subtle flush on the cheeks and dries to a semi-matte finish. If you see darker colors I wouldn't be put off because the pigmentation is light.

Also, applying this with a brush is kind of futile. The bristles don't seem to pick up the blush, fingers work best.

Overall, it's a product that is interesting but I prefer a standard cream blush any day.
