Finally a foundation that stays!

I have extremely oily skin - major oil slick that nothing can seem to control. I've tried numerous foundations and so far this has been the best one for my skin type. The coverage is fantastic! I find that you do have to work quite quickly with it as it dries quite fast and it can begin to cake if you play with it too much. I love to use my Real Techniques sponge with this, it applies it beautifully and evenly without compromising coverage. A round top kabuki also works nicely with this but I prefer the sponge. I'm in the shade Sand Beige which I find perfect for my light-medium complexion, it has just enough yellow in it. My only complaint is that I wish it had a pump!! Other than that - perfection. It lasts so well, it doesn't break up on my skin as most foundations tend to and it really does control oils - it never looks greasy but instead looks naturally dewy.

Favourite

This is the foundation I use daily. Coverage is good and lasts all day. The colour range is good to so you can easily find one to match your skin tone.

Revlon Colorstay Foundation - Combination/Oily

I love this foundation! Not 100% coverage but with a powder over top it looks stunning! Doesn't feel too heavy on either.

Tips: I use a flat top kabuki to apply.

love it

Such good coverage and does not feel heavy at all. It lasts a really long time and does not separate. Sometimes takes a bit of mattifying powder to dry it properly for really oily skin but it is not a problem.

Tips: less is more

Best

I have used this foundation quite a few times now, in this time I have still struggled to find a new foundation that tops it. This is definitely my all time fave! The coverage it gives off is amazing and flawless, yet it is so lightweight. I found that I didn't have to touch up every few hours, definitely long wearing!

Tips: I found using a flat top kabuki brush worked best for me.

First and Fav

This was my first foundation and after years of using other foundations have returned to this one. The coverage is as good as mac but it still looks like your own skin. It battles the problem of oily skin for most of the day while still having a glow, so you aren't completely matt. I LOVE this product however for my oily/combination skin, it does tend to wear off towards the end of the day, however it still lasts longer then other drug store brands I've tried. It lasts over 24h as it claims on the areas away from my T-zone.

Tips: Blend this product into skin well otherwise it may get patchy if your skin get too oily. Do not use on ANY dry patches, it will only make them worse.

Amazing True to Claim!

I love this product so much! It's ful coverage and amazing quality considering the price being much more affordable than what I'd consider the foundation to be a dupe for; the Estee Lauder foundation. It's a very build able foundation, blend-able as well and lasts me a whole 7 hours.

Tips: I'd definitely recommend contouring after applying the foundation to add depth as alone it sort of washes you out .

Really great stay power

I have used this product on and off for years now. It's my go to for stage makeup and going out. The staying power is great and it gives a good matte finish. My only issues are 1) That that the colour I wear (buff chamois) can look a little greyish on the skin 2) The texture/coverage is just a bit too thick for me for everyday daytime wear (I wear revlon Nearly Naked foundation (vanilla) instead during the day). But all in all, really good foundation and great price.

Tips: Apply with real techniques expert face brush. Do not dab all over face and then blend each area (it dries relatively fast), instead, work on each area consecutively.

Revlon Colour stay

I LOVE THIS FOUNDATION! It is absolutely amazing on my skin! It is thin enough to blend nicely, and doesn't crease! I have quite oily skin and a lot of foundations don't do it justice! But when i use a setting powder over top i get no oil come through what-so-ever after a day at school then work. I would put this foundation on at about 7.30AM And wash it off at about 8.30pm and it lasted! It was not cakey and did not crease, and a lot of the time i didn't actually NEED to set it, I just personally prefer to dot hat with my makeup.

Tips: I would recommend using a flat top brush rather than an angle topped brush to avoid putting too much product in one place.

Revlon Colorstay

This is the only foundation that will last all day on my skin. My skin is very oily and most foundations just slide off my face, where this stays put. It is quite a full on foundation so I prefer to just use it when going out on the weekends, and stick to a mineral powder during the week.

Tips: Stays put when it's on your face - so make sure you cleanse your face thoroughly at the end of the day to minimize breakouts! If you have problem skin it's probably better to not use every day!
