Golden Beige

This light way formula is beautiful when on the skin. Awesome coverage but light enough on the skin without looking cakey. It gives your skin enough room to breathe.

Applied to the skin with a mock beauty blender it was easy to blend out and not to hard to get an even look across my face. My noticeable blemishes hidden and a nice dwey look to my face was given. A flawless finish.

I don't like a dwey finish with my foundation so set it with a finishing powder which worked amazingly. It didn't transfer and it didn't shift for quite sometime...but it didn't last the 24hrs as stated.

Wears up to 24hrs is what is stated on the bottle but I can assure you this is not the case. After a day in this foundation it had shifted from my chin and cheeks. Applied at 9am taking it off at 9pm there were noticable patches where the foundation no longer sat. However that is 12 hours of staying power which is pretty amazing! And a foundation I can work with, especially with how affordable it is x

Light Coverage

I picked this bottle up in Splashstore sale. I couldn't resist the 70 % off too good to pass. I love foundations and I'm still hunting for my perfect full coverage foundation.

The bottle of this foundation is pretty average crew top lid. I prefer pumps as it's easier to manage the amount of foundation coming out. The consistency of this liquid is smooth . I can't remember what shade I chose at the time. I know it was a dupe for Mac NC40.

With application I find it easy to spread out across my skin. I have a lot of spots and pigmentation to hide. This did nothing to hide. It faded within an hour of wear. I even put two different primers on at the same time to layer it still no good. I've almost finished the bottle results the same.

I'm glad I got to give this foundation a try at an affordable price. I think drugstore make up is too expensive in new zealand. I still haven't found a good one yet. Ive spent heaps now trying to get an affordable drugstore foundation . I'm definately going to save up for a high end foundation.

Good quality for price

I've used Revlon Colorstay on and off for a while now and I think for the price your getting a reasonable deal. It has a great colour selection and is super cheap! I do find though that when applying it goes very streaky as in you can see the brush lines and sometimes would be slightly patchy on my skin. Also once your face has any shine to it, it does wipe off quite easily. If I found myself unable to afford my double wear I would buy this again but probably wouldn't choose to. Medium coverage to buildable but can look cakey. Also made me sneeze every time I used it hahah.

Tips: Have a clean brush to buff it out once you've applied to get rid of brush strokes!

Revlon Colourstay Foundation - My go to foundation

I use Revlon colourstay foundation in oily/ combination medium beige. This is my go to foundation as it is suitable for my skin tone (olive) and the hue of many foundations are often to orange for me. It has good coverage, especially when matched with the Revlon concealer and a flawless finish when blended properly. Works best when finished with Revlon powder to set the foundation as it can be a bit oily if you don't set it. I also have sensitive skin and a lot of foundations will often give me blemishes but this doesn't as I think it is oil free (don't quote me on that) but I do also use a silicone barrier cream as well.

Tips: I have found blending of the foundation works best with fingers (not a sponge) and you don't need much of this, if you use to much the makeup can look over done.

Only Foundation I will buy!

This gives great coverage, the color matches are wonderful the range is large and its the only product i have used for 4 years now!

Tips: Apply with a sponge it goes further! and it can be tricky to wash off your hands.

Not that great

After reading all the good reviews thought I would go buy me a bottle. Expensive! Terrible colour choices, I found most we're pink based and I have warm skin so color matching was hard, didn't help when the beauty consultant matched me totally wrong lol my silly fault though. But I did purchase Australis lightening drops which helped a little but now colour looks too grey. Anyway as for staying power on hot days doesn't stay put. So I'm still on the hunt for the perfect foundation.

Great Product for the price!

love the shades for Cooler skin tones, I’m 150 Buff and it is perfect. Coverage is around medium. I would love if they done this formula in a full coverage! Price point is good. I’m on my second bottle so that says something in itself. Great Day foundation.

Love Revlon

Loved the colour stay. So easy to apply and it kept my face covered all day especially those spots that you don't want exposed. I was really impressed. Usually make up wears off the nose but not colourstay. It maintained full coverage. It is nice to come home looking great instead of make up half gone. Highly recommended for the working Mum!!

Tips: Make sure your moisturiser has had time to sink in first before applying foundation

My go to

I have been using this foundation on and off since I was 17. I swear they have changed it however as it seems to be medium coverage now and 10 years ago it used to be a lot thicker. I love this foundation for the price and the coverage is quite good. However, I have combination skin and it doesn’t stop my face from looking oily. You can buy this foundation from many places which I like. The pump bottle is much more convenient also.

Tips: Use a powder overtop.

A trustworthy friend

I find this foundation to be like a loyal, reliable friend: it’s affordable, a decent brand, and it adequately hides imperfections - especially redness and/or mild acne. It is a foundation you can use daily. I now feel naked if I leave the house without it on because I have come to rely on it as part of my daily beauty regime.

Tips: I apply a moisturiser to my skin first, then mascara and then I use an under eye, dark circle concealer before applying this product to my skin.
