I was lucky enough to be picked to review this product. Unfortunately, I chose the wrong shade for my skin so this review will be based on the functionality and whether it did what it says it would and not necessarily how it looked on my skin.Getting the wrong shade was 100% my fault amd no reflection on beauty review or maybelline.
The product comes in a nice little compact disc type shape. It's easy to open and close and as it is mix between liquid and powder, isn't flaky or messy.
The disc is easy to open and close and is simple yet chic looking.
I found the product easy to apply and is smooth and visable enough that you can ensure you are great great coverage.
I have combination skin so found it did cover blemishes but maybe not a much as I would have liked as did have to apply 3 or 4 times on a couple of breakout zones. I am not into the shiny or shimmery look when it comes to foundation so am happy to say that this looks smooth and the finished look would be what I would want from a foundation/powder. I am more of a natural look girl and this gave me that to a certain extent (or would have if I had gotten the right shade).
The maybelline superstay 16 hour powder did last the day and deffinietly is the sweat, heat and oil proof as per its claims. This is a massive bonus for me - I spend a lot of time outdoors and don't always have the closeness of a mirror or a facility to be able to do touch-ups. It's a massive bonus to know that I can rely on the Maybelline Superstay 16 hour powder to take me through the day.
My local maybelline stockist has sold out of this product but I will be buying some (in the right shade), once they are back in stock. I believe it retails for around $30 which is a bargain in my opinion.
I found this to be very dry looking on my combination skin, a nice coverage though and nice texture to apply but I felt like it made my fine lines look deeper and more prominent.
Tips: Possibly okay for an oily skin type
