This is my number one go to foundation. I love the way it blends in and the colour is perfect. Coverage is good and lasts most of the day. Downside is I dont think it lasts the full 24hours as it states it does, but who wants to wear make up for 24 hours! Added bonus is it also contains sunscreen.
Tips: I use a primer or bb cream underneath which helps the foundation to go on for a better coverage and last longer
I bought this by accident as I was meant to buy the combination/oily it was just the same but I needed to touch up with powder during the day, and it's slightly heavier and more matte for some reason. The colours blend really well, I always go a shade lighter in these colorstay foundations to blend into the jaw, or it leaves marks. It lasts the distance and would be great for dry skin that doesn't get oily like mine. I don't recommend touching up this foundation with more foundation after it sets as it seems to flake off or go very cakey.
Tips: I'd apply light handedly and it sets quickly
I purchase the colourstay in normal/dry sand beige 180 tint. This is my go to ever since they changed the formula of the photoready foundation. It’s a light formulation which is fantastic for everyday. Applying a second layer gives you more coverage for evening wear. I apply using my fingers as I find it easier to make sure I get it everywhere. No smell as far as I can tell. And it doesn’t make my face oily. I’d like it to last a bit more throughout the day though. Great for the price.
It is buildable, with all day wear. I do feel it's a challenge to get your colour match as not always are there testers in store or makeup experts to help with this. I waited till I found a makeup therapist to match me, which I was thankful I did as getting the right colour is what makes all foundations have the right look, and true representation of the effect of the foundation. I have normal skin, which the Revlon liquid is my preferable go to. With all said I do prefer my maxfactor 3 n 1 foundation more as I like the finished result better.
Tips: Wait to get a proper colour match with an expert if you can
This foundation is hands down one of my favorite. Such high coverage for me personally, without looking cakey/ too much. Stays on all day for me, or all night. My other makeup applies beautifully over the top of it (concealer, powder etc). I always re purchase this one. I'm also very pale and struggle to find a colour thats yellow based and pale enough but this brand is perfect for that.
Tips: I apply with a sponge, it applies better for me with one!
I found matching my skin colour was a bit difficult as I’m very fair and I would have needed to mix two colours to find my perfect shade. Didn’t particularly help my skin from drying out either and you could still see my dry patches very easily
I decided to buy this because the colour match was perfect for my skin tone (shade Nude 200). I was also glad I found this one because my skin can get really dry in areas on my face. I love the coverage and it always lasts all day for me even when the weather is hot. The formula is very easy to blend into my skin and always looks flawless. The price is good aswell for how well it works so I've continued to buy it for quite awhile now.
I have been using Revlon colorstay foundation since I was in high school. Its an amazing affordable foundation, with great coverage. I would compare it to a dupe for Estee Lauder double wear foundation. It gives the same amount of coverage - Medium to full. It builds nicely, without caking up in any areas. It lasts all day, without needing touch ups from fading, rubbing off, or sinking into fine lines. It also does not cause break outs. Although there are two formulas of this foundation - One for normal/dry, and one for oily skin, I find this dries down to quite a matte finish. The packaging is also very practicable, it comes with a pump and lid, which makes it non-messy to use and easy to take travelling. The shade range is also great.
I bought this for the first time a few weeks ago from www.kissandmakeup.co.nz as it was on sale (and I love that they use compostable packaging). I bought 250 Fresh beige. I have dry to sensitive skin and I was immediately impressed. You only need half a pump (I don't use a blending sponge as I find it wastes the product), and it blended nicely into my skin and still had full coverage at the end of the day. (My usual brand tended dry during the day so I'd need to have concealer with me). if you want full coverage without feeling heavy I truly recommend this product. I now understand why this is one of the best foundations on the market.
Tips: Buy it online - as it's a lot cheaper. There's a good selection on online retailers now offering this product
