Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Liquid Foundation Pouch Makes Refills a Snap

Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Liquid Foundation is now available in a pouch making it easy to refill your favorite shade of foundation without excess waste. Refillable pouches are very, very common in Asia. The Japanese are particularly a fan of creating refill pouches for everything under the sun including shower gels, shampoos, and of course, skincare.

But wait, is it refillable? Apparently, not…? Maybelline calls this a “new portable on-the-go packaging”. But let’s get back to that in a second….

Maybelline New York Fit Me Matte + Poreless Liquid Foundation is typically 1 oz in size and about $7.99 full retail but you can find it at a variety of mass retailers such as Target ($5.59) and Walmart ($3.46) for way less.

It’s sort of weird that a 1.3 oz pouch is $7.98 but the same 1 oz bottle is $3.46. You might as well just get two bottles at this price. On the up side it does look like a special price at the moment for bottles as typically bottles are $7.99 at 1 oz and the pouch is $7.98 which contains a smidge more product at 1.3 oz.

I don’t technically use Fit Me which means I’m not familiar with the packaging. Does anyone know if you can unscrew it and refill it? Curious minds as that would be the sole reason you might want to buy this. Otherwise, the idea of applying foundation from a pouch or even toting one around seems weird for someone that isn’t a makeup artist. If you are a makeup artist this is great as you can easily squeeze a small amount out and mix it with other shades. It may even be a space safer in your kit because it can lay flat.

Otherwise, it seems sort of pointless!

Hmmmm!

What do you think of the new Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Liquid Foundation Pouch?

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    The last time I bought a maybelline foundation, a few years ago, it did not even have a pump so yeah you would probably be able to refill a bottle.

    Yeah, like the other person said, the maybelline doesn�t have a pump which I hate. I probably would like the pouch better for that reason if it has a nozzle tip vs just an open glass jar like the regular ones. I do also mix shades usually so the pouch might make that easier too.

      I’m torn on it. I don’t think I’d like it in a pouch but some part of me is like oh it would be great for mixing!
