Maybelline Dewy Fit Me  First time trying out the Maybelline Fit Me Dewy Smooth & Maybelline Master Prime. I recieved these free sample products from Influenster for testing purposes. I myself am still looking for a foundation that goes with my skin. I don’t know much about makeup yet as I am still a beginner . So I have a long way to go. As I am trying out new products I test them out to see if my skin will react. I’m not really sure if I have oily skin or combo. The foundation is lightweight it does not feel Cakey or heavy at all. The formula feels nice not sticky at all . Blends well too. The foundation is comfortable to wear on skin I set it with airspun just Incase I have oily skin. So far I’m loving it. It last all day for about 8 to 9 hours. I was impressed  because usually when I try an spf foundation it melts away and wears off through out the day. I definitely recommend the Maybelline Fit Me Dewy Smooth Foundation.  The Maybelline Master Pr...
