Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Foundation in Cocoa (Dark 3) is a lightweight, medium-coverage foundation crafted for normal to oily skin, delivering a smooth, matte finish. Its iconic whipped formula, infused with ultra-mattifying powders, blurs pores and controls shine for up to 16 hours, creating a soft-focus, airbrushed look. Ideal for deep skin tones with warm undertones, this shade blends seamlessly, covering redness and imperfections without a heavy or cakey feel, as praised by Amazon reviewers for its velvety texture. In 2025, X users commend its breathable formula and pore-minimizing effect, with some on Walmart.com noting its suitability for sensitive skin. However, reviews on Ulta suggest applying over a moisturizer to avoid flaking on dry patches, especially for mature skin. The mousse’s buildable coverage allows for customized application, though some users, as per cosmetis.com, mention the shade may appear lighter in the jar but blends true to tone. Removal is effortless with micellar water, like Garnier’s. Dermatologist- and allergy-tested, this drugstore staple remains a favorite for a flawless, shine-free complexion, perfect for daily wear or special occasions.
