Revlon ColorStay Foundation - Combination/Oily Review

This was my first ever foundation that I ever purchased. I used it for years and years and only in the past year or so have I learnt the correct way to apply it. When applied correctly this foundation is great. Full coverage and lasts a long time. For the price it really is fantastic. I always end up repurchasing.

I bought this for about a year before deciding it probably wasn't for me. It is a really great coverage and I liked that there was a decent amount of colours and shades to choose from, as I prefer more of a yellow base foundation and this had a good range.

It did last all day with minimal touching up to be done which I was pleased with

The price was good but my only problem was that I have very dry skin and this really did make it worse I found. Even with intense moisturising regimes I would end the day with my skin feeling so dehydrated and thick with color stay. This is ultimately why I changed but in saying that it is probably the perfect foundation with combination and oily skin types so each to their own.

Was a great foundation over all.

I really enjoy this foundation it stayed on my skin all day and didnt start looking funny after a few hours. I have dry skin and it didnt dry it out any worse. Its really worth the money for a good proper foundation

This by far WAS one of my favourite foundation without a doubt, I have used this since I first started wearing foundation in my early teens!

I find this Foundation has amazing coverage and the staying power is fantastic! It’s a thick texture, with quite a heavy coverage but stays all day with the perfect base.

Unfortunately Revlon made some changed and bought out the “New Formula” for this foundation which I feel just isn't the same, the smell is different, the texture is slightly runnier, and it overall just feels like a different foundation. Sadly, I don’t purchase this anymore unless I can get hold of the previous formula.

I purchased this a while ago as the lady told me it was a relatively good priced foundation that has good coverage and is good for your skin. I tried it and loved it immediately! It's easy to apply and with the right primer just smooths onto your skin even better! The oily/combination specification is really good too, it works with my skin even on bad days. Some parts of my face are oily and others are normal and it just works! Easy to blend and there are lots of shades to easy to find the right one for you. The only thing I find is that you really do need that lunch break touch up, if you have super oily skin as well it definitely needs a good powder over top, as well as a touch up.

I have Revlon Colorstay Foundation in 200 Nude. It is suited perfectly to my pale complexion. The foundation provides a good even coverage and blends well. It dries nice and matte and covers small blemishes well. I combine it with Revlon Colorstay pressed powder for a long lasting look. It can be difficult to achieve an even coverage with a foundation brush so I often use my fingers to blend well. It's good value for money too.

I have Revlon Colorstay Foundation in the shade 200 Nude and its my perfect colour and coverage at the moment. It has a medium coverage and dries fairly matte, though I still set it with a powder.

I apply it using a buffing brush, application is very easy as the formula's consistency is fairly thin and spreadable but still manages to maintain a good coverage.

It blends well with my contour and blush and the SPF20 is always a plus.

I think the star quality of this foundation is its longevity, it manages to stay put all day. I'd say its fairly comparable to my MAC Pro-Longwear but without as much of the price-tag. I wouldn't say its 'cheap' but its certainly a more affordable option, especially if you use foundation on a daily basis. I also own the Revlon New Complexion Foundation and the Colorstay Mineral Mousse Foundation but this one surpasses both by a mile.

The only real downside to the foundation is its notoriously horrible packaging.. Revlon, if for some reason you end up reading this, please give this product a pump. The screw lid and wide top ensures that I end up pouring three times the amount of make-up I need onto the back of my hand and I have to debate whether to get rid of the excess, scrape it back into the bottle or just put it all onto my face in a desperate attempt to not waste it all.

Love the product, hate the packaging.

This foundation was bought last minute as I had no foundation left but it surprised me as it turned out to be a great foundation. It was a good coverage and meant that i did not have to reapply throughout the day. The colour was very natural and meant that i did not have to use other products. It was well priced and I was very happy with it throughout the time it lasted. I would recommend it to others and would consider buying it again. Good Product!!

Absolutely love this foundation! it is so nice and matte on my skin and stays on the whole day or night (depends when I'm wearing it) it is a nice coverage with out looking cake and totally affordable

Revlon colorstay 24 hour foundation was long lasting and i would use it again. It stayed on more than other foundations I have used, and has a nice coverage.
