I really, really wanted to love this foundation. I'd heard such good things about it, everyone seems to think that it's amazing! However.... luckily, I got a sample of this to try before purchasing, and I'm glad I did. It went on smoothly and felt great, but within four hours I'd noticed separation in my T-zone, and at six-to-seven hours, my face looked like an oil slick. No amount of blotting or setting helped for more than a minute or two either!

Tips: Don't go near this if you have oily skin!
This is defiantly my go to foundation. Stays well and applys well, just have trouble with getting the right colour! The one i use now only works when im tan but the hype about this foundation is defiantly true.
Tips: Get colour matched but by someone that knows what they are talking about! Even get a tester to try before hand. I have found beauty blender makes it apply the best.
My new go to foundation, I have finally said goodbye to Revlon Colourstay which I have worn for around 10+ years. I now feel like I'm a grownup and its boosted my confidence to no end. It's so beautiful to work with and great coverage! The Estée lady that I was dealing with gave me five sample colours to take home and try so I could get the correct colour. I seen her over three weeks and she was the peak of customer service which is the second reason why this brand is my new favourite X
Tips: This has great coverage so start with a little and build up.
This foundation will last on your skin all day long and still look absolutely flawless! It can look quite cakey so it may be best to use a hydrating primer underneath if you do have dry skin! other than that it works great for my oily skin and stays flawless all day long! doesnt get oily at all and all products that you put on top stay pigmented all day long too!
Tips: Dont apply too much as it can be quite thick! get a sample of your potential colour as it is so pigmented it can be quite hard to find your colour match.
This foundation definitely stands up to what it claims to do. Its full coverage and i would say a demi matte finish. Id definitely buy it again
Tips: Apply with a damp beauty blender.. also DEFINITELY use a primer.. and not a matte primer.. use a hydrating primer.
This foundation is about as good as it gets for a really full coverage, long wearing and huge colour range! The only issue I have is that it can look a bit cakey and heavy, I've found this can be avoided by using a good hydrating primer and slowly building it up. It's my go to night foundation which I know will stay in place!
Tips: Use a hydrating primer, build it up slowly.
it was so amazing highly recommend, it lasts all day long and doesn't smudge off onto your clothing there is a wide range of colours and is so easy to apply!
I love the heavy coverage and light wear of this foundation. I have worn it for the past 2 years and don't plan to change any time soon :)
love this foundation. good things about it are: it is long lasting, great full coverage, easy to apply, doesn't transfer too much onto clothes, a little goes a long way, many different shades so easy to get a match. bad things: can dry skin out, very expensive for my budget so i use sparingly - however a little goes a long way and mine is lasting me a long time, can look a little thick and cake if you're not careful but I've been ok.
Tips: i use a damp sponge to apply
So this foundation did not quite live up to my expectations. And I had massive ones! Yes it was buildable and long lasting but the foundation itself made my skin very oily and sticky which made me break out. In saying that I have a combination of both dry and oily skin but when I used it my skin just appeared to be more oily which I absolutely hate. I tried using this in two separate occasions but same result.
Tips: I first used a stippling brush to apply with on my skin, works better with a damp beauty blender
