Maybelline Dream Radiant Liquid Foundation Review
When a high-profile influencer gives a product her TikTok seal of approval, you know the beauty world is listening. And, just recently, English Youtuber and Media personality Madeline Argy, revealed her go-to foundation, so–-naturally—we had to get the insider scoop and try it out first-hand.
“It’s the Dream Radiant Liquid by Maybelline,” Argy mentioned in one of her videos. “I just [...] put the tiniest bit on my beauty blender and take it around my face.”
Given her glowing complexion, it only makes sense that people everywhere are most likely rushing to grab a bottle. But does this viral foundation live up to its hype? Let's find out.
What’s the Hype About? Our Official Maybelline Dream Radiant Liquid Review
Maybelline’s Dream Radiant Liquid Foundation isn’t exactly new to the beauty scene, but it’s definitely earned its stripes. For years, it’s been a cult favourite for those who swear by drugstore gems – and now, with Argy’s stamp of approval, it’s officially TikTok famous.
Here’s what makes it a stand-out option:
Hydrating: This foundation is packed with hyaluronic acid and collagen, which means it’s doing more than just covering up imperfections. It’s actively hydrating your skin, giving you a dewy glow—pretty much the ultimate skincare goal. If you’ve got dry skin or just want a fresh-faced finish, this one’s for you.
Buildable Coverage: Whether you want a natural, light-as-air finish or something to get ready to hit the town, the Dream Radiant Liquid is a good choice. It’s a medium-coverage formula that you can build up if you need more; it can take you from brunch to bar in just a single layer (or two).
Radiant Finish: As the name suggests, this foundation leaves your skin looking luminous – but not in a glittery, over-the-top way. It’s more like a healthy glow from within—which, honestly, is what we all want.
Affordable Price Tag: At a fraction of the cost of high-end foundations, Maybelline is giving quality vibes—while your bank account takes no hits.
How Madeline Argy Applies It – The Beauty Blender Technique
Two pumps of Dream Radiant Liquid, and Madeline is good to go—she applies it with a pointed beauty blender. The choice of a pointed beauty blender is simple – precision. The pointed tip makes it easy to get into more awkward areas like under the eyes and around the nose. The result? Smooth, flawless coverage. Plus, bouncing the sponge lightly over your face helps create a soft, airbrushed finish.
Beauty Blender vs. Brush: Which Should You Choose?
If you’re more of a brush gal (or guy), not to worry – the Dream Radiant Liquid works just as well with a brush. Here’s the lowdown:
Beauty Blender: If you’re after a fresh, natural glow (think no-makeup makeup), the beauty blender is your bestie. Its damp texture will sheer out the foundation for a soft, dewy finish, perfect for everyday wear.
Makeup Brush: For more coverage, go for a dense foundation brush, like a kabuki. A flat-top brush is better for more coverage and will give you a next-to-flawless with a bit more polish. Or, a stippling brush can add a lightweight, barely-there vibe.
So, Does It Live Up to Argy’s Hype?
It’s safe to say that Madeline Argy – and the countless other influencers and makeup artists with something to say about this foundation – are definitely onto something with the Dream Radiant Liquid Foundation. Hydrating, glowy, and affordable, it’s everything you want in a foundation without breaking the bank. Whether you’re blending it out with a beauty sponge or buffing it in with a brush, this foundation is versatile enough to suit every makeup style and occasion.
So, if you’re on the hunt for your new go-to foundation, take a tip from Argy herself and give Maybelline’s Dream Radiant Liquid a try. Your skin (and your wallet) might just thank you.
