Was your favorite foundation discontinued? Or maybe it was a favorite blush shade that’s long gone. What’s one discontinued makeup product you’d bring back if you could? I always have hopes that brands will revise old, discontinued makeup that I used years and years ago. I still recall a Revlon Blush I wore in my graduation photo. It was called Rose Berry. It’s long since gone but I really loved that shade and used it all through my Senior Year of high school. 17, bushy eyebrows, frizzy hair, and you can’t tell in this picture but I was wearing Rose Berry on my cheeks! What a time to be alive!
Would I love to see that shade back? Absolutely but not as much as I would like to see something else return. If you’re an OG reader around here I bet you know which discontinued makeup item I want back and it isn’t a blush shade. Did you guess?
If you said Maybelline Dream Mousse Concealer you’d be correct! I KNOW I’m not alone with this one. Maybelline Dream Mousse Concealer was released in 2009 and I guess it was around for about a year or so. If I knew it would be gone so soon, I’d probably have purchased a lot more of it than I did. I’m enraged that the crappy Maybelline Dream Mousse Foundation is still around but the concealer is still around. NARS Soft Matte Complete Concealer and Too Faced Peach Perfect Instant Coverage Concealer are similar formulas but not as soft or as dreamy as Maybelline’s formula.
At one point in my life, I really thought I liked Maybelline Dream Mousse Foundation. But I realized it just isn’t meant for my skin type at all! But the concealer, the concealer was a whole other ball game. As you may suspect the formula is exactly like the foundation. It was a soft, whipped consistency; my eyes simply loved it for some reason or another. It applied like a dream and had the smoothest, most beautiful finish under my eyes. I do wonder if it was around today if I’d feel the same about it. Why? Well, it was released nearly 15 years ago and a lots has changed with my eyes. I still have a fairly good under-eye area but I do have more finer lines I’m sure and I’m always battling puffiness but it seems more so as I get older. Also, my eyes are a lot drier than they were back then. I wonder if they brought it back if I’d still love it as much as I did those many years ago? I sure wish they would! I’d do anything to retry it and see what my eyes think of it now!
