I recently had the opportunity to do a review of Mia Mariu makeup. I was super excited because right now I have just been using the cheap drugstore makeup, so having some high quality makeup again was exciting!

I received both the Mineral Cream Foundation and Hydrating Stick Gloss. Both were packaged really nicely and certainly looked high quality (much more so than my drugstore makeup!). One thing I noticed with the cream foundation right away is that it didn’t come with a sponge. This seems to be a problem with a lot of cream foundations and also powders. I still had a sponge from some foundation that I had had before, so I just used that instead.

What I love about this foundation ($23 value) though is how smoothly it goes on and how well it blends. I ordered this color based on what I had seen online without actually trying it, and it ended up being perfect! If you aren’t as comfortable just picking what you think works best, Mia Mariu also has a tool to pick your shade. Using the sponge, I was able to spread it on evenly, without it clumping up or looking streaky.

I also received one of the Hydrating Stick Gloss ($15 value). I am not usually much of a lip gloss person, but I thought I would give this one a try. I was happy with this product also! It goes on very smooth and unlike some lip glosses it actually tastes good. The only thing is that it it doesn’t have a whole lot of coverage, so I would suggest using this after you have already applied regular lipstick, or use it for touchups.

Now, for the fun part. One lucky winner will have the opportunity to win both the cream foundation and the hydrating stick gloss, a $38 value!
