Maybelline Superstay 24 Hour Foundation Review

(My skin type-combination) This product is beautiful! It blends beautifully and drys down to a smooth soft finish, it's also transfer proof. It smooths over poses and doesn't settle into fine lines. A good selection of shades. For me I would say this is a "Medium" to "Full" Coverage. It is buildable and it sits perfectly on the skin. Definitely a Super Stay foundation. They did a good job with this product.

This is now my favourite foundation. After reading all the great reviews I had to buy some but I waited till it was on special. I was very lucky to pick a shade that matched, because I purchased at countdown where there are no testers. The coverage is pretty good medium buildable to full coverage. And it has a pump which is good so it's not messy.

I didnt expect much from this foundation but OMG it delivered!!

Firstly - my skin is normal-dry depending on the day - so usually anything marketed as full coverage or 24 hour wear does NOT work for me and leaves me dry and patchy!

The coverage on this foundation is great - I use 1-1.5 pumps for full face, pretty full coverage. I personally dont like building it up too much more as it tends to look a bit heavy and cakey, not that you really need to build it up anyway.

Only downside is the shades are a bit whack - there arent very many shades, and they are oddly named (for example I am 010 Ivory, wheras in other foundations I am usualy a light-medium!) so if you cant get to any testers definitely look up some swatches online or on YT.

This foundation is such a good price I really recommend anyone who is interested to try it. I have almost finished my first bottle and will be buying a 2nd.

I bought this recently after a friend recommended it to me, she was absolutely blown away so I thought I should give it a go. Matte foundations aren't usually my first pick, but ohhh my gosh I have fallen in love with this! The coverage on this is just insane and so is the staying power! I have combo skin and I feel like this lasts really well all day on my skin and so far I haven't had any issues with separation around the nose and chin like I usually do with other foundations, this also doesn't leave me looking like an oil slick by the end of the day! The only thing is I'm finding it hard to find a good shade, they seem to be a bit yellow for me so I'm having to mix a couple together and it still doesn't seem right, but hopefully they release more!

Wow I was not prepared for this foundation to be as good as it is! I have always worn Lancome foundation and was in need of a new one (and potentially a new shade as I had just coloured my hair from blonde to brunette) so booked in at my local Lancome counter for a makeover in a couple of weeks time. When I got home I started researching alternate (and cheaper) foundations and stumbled across reviews on Maybelline Superstay foundation and they were so good that I thought I might give it a go myself. The universe agreed and had a 40% off Maybelline sale at Farmers so I rushed on down with nervous excitement. Oh my ... there are so many shades and I have to colour match myself which I haven't had to do before. I found a mirror and made lines of foundation on my face until I found what I thought was the closest match to my skin and then I wandered around the store for about half an hour so the foundation had a chance to oxidise and also gave me a chance to see how it felt on my skin because I really do not like touching my face and feeling foundation. I went home with shade 10 Ivory and couldn't be happier. It is the perfect shade for my Autumn/Winter skin tone and feels like I am not wearing foundation at all - it just feels like I have super soft skin. It comes in a square shaped tall bottle that is really easy to hold and it has a pump which works really well and you can easily control how much foundation you pump out. I put a tiny dot on my beauty sponge and tap it round. A few tiny dots (it wouldn't even be a full pump worth all up) is all it takes to cover my entire face and despite it being full coverage it looks so natural! It covered up my redness on my cheeks and made my complexion look smooth and even. I set it with a setting spray and some powder and it stayed on all day... family had presumed I had touched it up during the afternoon which I hadn't. I have even been to the gym and sweated away and it still looked good when I got back home. I am very impressed by this foundation and will definitely be purchasing it again - in fact I have cancelled my Lancome makeover and Maybelline Superstay is fast becoming my new fave and at this rate will be my 'go-to'.

This foundation has been my go-to foundation. I like the full coverage and the longevity of it. I can go for 12 hours without touch-ups. it leaves my skin looking healthy. I apply it using a buffing brush and it works well for me and I always set it with loose powder. I recommended it to my sister and she fell in love with it too. FYI my skin type is a combination I get oily in the T zone. Will be great if it has more shades I have to mix 2 shades to get my shade

This foundation is now one of my go to’s! It has a long lasting full coverage effect and I’m not worried about having to top up my makeup half way through the day! I use shade 03 True Ivory and for me it’s the perfect shade for my fair skin, I found this shade did oxidise on my skin slightly, but not by much. For a drugstore product which is affordable and easily accessible, it’s a hit!

I have large pores, acne scares and a lot of pigmentation and this foundation covered it all. I love the coverage this foundation gives and it is one of my favourite foundations to use. It is affordable and in my opinion better then the Estée Lauder double wear. Amazing coverage if that is what you are looking for

I wish this formula was still available. It is much better than the new active formula. This formula sits much nicer on the skin and doesn't look as cake as the new formula.
