Maybelline Superstay 24hr Full Coverage Foundation

I liked the foundation. I found I didn't have to reapply during the day like I often do with other brands. The coverage was good but I found I needed to use a primer with it or my pores were quite visible due to it being thicker than some of the foundations I tend to use. It was easy to apply and blended in well. I have sensitive skin but this caused not issues. I would use again.

Tips: Use it with a primer

Maybelline Superstay 24hr Foundation

I was super excited to be offered a place on this trial team. I have not used a Maybelline foundation before so was keen to see if I would love it or leave it.

It comes in a glass bottle, yay love that. Initially, I thought it was a screw top so after trying to screw it off and breaking some of the plastic lid off (oops) I figured out it was a pull up job *rolls eyes*. I chose the shade 30 Sand which was a bit more of an educated guess going by my other foundation. The colour is pretty spot on, maybe a touch light but certainly good enough for me to wear every day. It's a very light formula and you don't need to use a huge amount, maybe a large pea (is that a bean??) size.

Application: The first day, I applied it straight with no primer and the finish was not the best, it sat in my pores and by the time I got home from work, it was looking a little patchy. The next day I used a primer and a foundation brush and it went on super smooth, no pore issues since. Its stickability is great so when I brushed my teeth before heading out the door, I didn't wipe half of it off on my towel like I do with my current product (big win). It has lasted well throughout the day and still looks pretty darn good in the evening even if underneath it all I’m knackered.

Value for money: I think the value is ok? At $33.99 RRP it is up there price wise so I would probably wait till it came on special before I bought it again, which I think I will.

A nice, easy to apply formula that goes on smoothly when using a brush.

Tips: Make sure you blend at the corners of your face well or you will end up with a tide mark (oopsy)

Reasonable Price For A Reasonable Product

I got into this foundation for a while, it was reasonably longwearing and affordable. The shade was a good match for my skin and the feel and formula of the foundation were reasonable.

The one thing that put me off it over some other foundations is that it had a scent that I wasn't particularly fussed on, but one if was applied I stopped noticing it. I also noticed that it oxidized a bit after a few hours on.

Having tried more high end foundations, this one is not leagues behind for half the price so it's definitely worth taking into consideration.

Decent foundation

Affordable, love the coverage and I personally didn’t need a lot of this to cover my face. Also super long wear that lasts a decent amount of time so good for when you’re going out! Definitely lives up to the name

Amazing coverage!

This product was incredible. I got the True Ivory colour which, unlike most foundations, was true to it's label. I think I will save this foundation for the winter season when my skin returns to it's pale state. I have many freckles and this foundation covered every single last one and also covered any redness in my skin! It was easily applied and set easily, it was not at all sticky. Better yet, my bronzer slid over the foundation easily and blended in very well. The only downfall is that my breakthrough shine on my nose still won against this foundation, reducing its "Superstay" effect.

Tips: Ensure to set with a powder to reduce any break through shine if you tend to have more oily skin.

Really nice foundation for full coverage use!

I was lucky enough to be selected for a trial team to review this product! Firstly I love the packaging of this foundation, it’s sleek and clean looking. This is a super full coverage foundation! It has a thick creamy texture (it doesn’t run once pumped onto the back of your hand also yay for a pump!!) and I didn’t notice a scent. The shade I chose was light beige which was a touch too light for me however it slightly darkened after initial application and I was able to darken it up with bronzer I have tried two application methods, one with a brush and one with a beauty sponge. I have combination to dry skin and with a brush this foundation emphasised all the texture on my face and looked like it was sitting on my skin but with a damp beauty sponge it was a much much better application and it looked more seemless on my face and less cakey than with a brush. It was easy to blend in both with a sponge and with a brush. This foundation lasted a full 12 hours for me both with and without a primer however I preferred the finish with the primer. There was def no oiling up for me with this super Matte coverage. It has a very matte finish so if you are like me and have dry skin, a hydrating primer is likely essential and you will need to add extra light with other products. I don’t think the shade range was very big however so make sure you colour match of look on a foundation matching website et your shade. So if you like the matte look then this foundation is for you.

Tips: This would be great if you have a big event and needing your foundation to stay put or if you want a foundation with high coverage, this is the one for you! Other tips are to prep your skin well in advance with moisturiser and primer. This would also be great for someone with oil skin!

Maybelline foundation is made in France

This is a great budget foundation it's made on France and it's as good as some of the top of the line foundations. It has great pigment it lasts all day, it's a flawless finish and very natural. I applied it with a flat sponge and it went on really well and quick. I have combination skin so I like matte finish foundations and this is a great matte shine free finish, I purchased 28 soft beige it's perfect for neutral skin tones It's great for summer when your in the heat and swimming a lot it just lasts through everything. I think it would be great in winter as well when all the heaters are on it would still look great after a few hours of sitting on front of the fire and wouldn't melt off. It's also transfer resistant waterproof kind of anything proof, you could probably wear it to boot camp and come out flawless. Don't get the first maybelline 24 hour foundation as it's not as good as this one, this one is much better coverage and more natural. Farmers has great specials on maybelline

Tips: Apply with a sponge for even, easy, quick application

Maybelline superstay

This product has it all. Although not too expensive I wish we had it at a more comparable price to USA. However a drugstore brand i cased in a glass component, has a pump and is uniquely square shaped. The shade I got was for my winter shade to use everyday. I found this to be a bit pink and could've had a warmer undertone, but we made it work. Consistency wise its quite thin and runny. Easy to apply, using a beauty blender I haven't delved into the brush as it's not my choice of tool. I use this almost everyday and it has a build able coverage not quite full but rather light to medium. I use this over top of colour corrector and my primer. It layers well, and doesn't go patchy on my normal to combo skin however my skin during winter has been a bit drier I haven't found that this enhances that flaw. If anything I found that this is a semi matte finish but by the days end becomes quite slick and flush looking. I layer concealer over top and it holds quite well. Then powder over top to set the face. I find that this foundation will give me a good day's wear but by 3:00 there is definitely signs of slipping and alot of oiliness that being said my skin has been quite dry this winter and this didn't make a difference to the performance of the product and I would be left looking quite slickly dewy. The creases and corners by my nose has less coverage because of the product slip, but that's by the days end. However with all this mentioned I continue to use it for the affordable price and the actual coverage. I can easily apply it and it doesn't break the bank.

Tips: Prime well. Perhaps use colour corrector for extra coverage. Powder and set.

Lovely texture

Love this foundation , it is my go to product! Love the texture and the finish ! I find it hard to get a full coverage , more of a medium to full. Large bottle lasts a long time. Easy application with a beauty blender. Really liking this so far

Tips: Choose a shade slightly lighter than your skin tone as I found it to oxidise after a few hours (turns slightly darker)

Definitely a staple piece!

I really liked this foundation. I usually wear a BB cream or just concealor so wearing foundation everyday was a bit daunting. I loved the light weight feel of this but it provides more coverage than my BB cream and concealor - which I love! It doesn't crease which is a major bonus. Easy to apply, I used a sponge and brush, and awesome to layer up for fuller coverage.

Tips: Set with a powder to make it last longer.
