Revlon ColorStay Foundation - Combination/Oily Review

I will be honest and say I'm not keen on foundation. I have very oily acne prone skin and have terrible luck blocking my pores when I wear makeup so I tend to avoid it unless I'm going somewhere special. I'm not one to wear it all day every day and will happily go without it to work. However if I wasn't so lazy in the morning I would definitely wear this to work. This is my best foundation so far and will not be changing any time soon. I love how easy it goes on my face and how well it sits on my skin throughout the day. I do have to make sure I cover all areas as it tends to set hard, but not noticeable to someone looking at you unless you look very closely. I find it doesn't cause my skin to break out and comes off easy enough. The only time I find it wears off is when I touch my face a bit, either resting palms on cheeks or rubbing face. I find this is cheap enough, I get the 30ml bottle which I think is all it comes in, and I buy it from Farmers so I get the Beauty Points. The bottle is easy to use with a push down pump lid, although you may find you can't get it all out at the end unless you unscrew the bottle. Bottle is glass with a plastic cap over pump. I also like that it has SPF 15 in it to. I find it lasts me 6 months plus but I'm not a heavy user, so may not last as long. I follow this foundation with the Revlon Colourstay Powder to finish it and set it. I'm not sure if it lasts 24hrs as I have never worn it for that long before, but I can get quite a few hours out of it.

This is the best foundation I have ever used. I use it most days and it gives me great coverage for everyday use. I also use it when I'm going out and I can build it up for more coverage. I keep buying this foundation now. The pump bottle is so convenient too. With this product I find that a little bit goes a long way too.

I got this foundation in Sand Beige (Perfect match for me!) as an early birthday present from my sister. I'd been on the search for the perfect foundation that didn't cost an arm and a leg and I'd watched a number of you-tubers who highly recommended Revlon Colorstay as a drugstore alternative to the pricer brands like MAC. Unlike a number of the reviews I've read in relation to this foundation, my colorstay came with a pump which means I don't have to worry about spilling it everywhere. A lot of people also mentioned their dislike of the glass packaging, howver, I feel the packaging itself is pretty sturdy and unless you're throwing it across the room or dropping it on the concrete it should hold out just fine.

The foundation claims to last 24 hours, unfortunately I have yet to test this out as I generally only wear foundation for around 12 hours. In saying that, the foundation definitely holds firm for the majority of the day, especially if you use a setting powder. I did use this foundation in conjunction with my Garnier Blur, however, I found that the two didn't really go together and I actually prefer the overall look of the foundation when I don't wear a primer or blur cream. I also love the fact that the foundation is build-able and can therefore be used for a medium or heavy coverage.

I will definitely be repurchasing this product once I run out and I have a feeling it is going to be my go-to foundation for many years to come.

I use this for my everyday coverage. Such an easy and even foundation to apply. Really do love it! For me i think this best evens out my skin tone as i have quite red and uneven skin so it really does even that out! Lasts a very long time and is super durable.

This has a thick, creamy consistency. When applying it goes on smoothly, however you do need to work quick to blend in as it does tend to dry quickly. The coverage is full and covers blemishes well. It definitely lasts all day, without a powder on top, I do get a little oil on my t Zone, but with a little powder it sets and is good all day and night.

I started using this foundation over the last few months as I stopped liking my Maybelline Fit Me liquid foundation and as my mum and sister swear by this. This foundation gives great coverage and leaves your skin looking flawless - although it does feel a bit thick, but I have no problems with that. The range of shades is great, as there are several colours with yellow or pink undertones making it very easy to find your perfect shade. This foundation is extremely long wearing, although I haven't been able to wear it for 24 hours, but it does last around 8 hours when set with a powder. Overall, I absolutely love this foundation and I can see why so many people do too!

This is my go to foundation. It creates a lovely, buildable finish. It lasts all day and I don't have any issues with breaking out using it.

I have used this product for at least 10 years. I am still impressed by the finish and how long lasting it is. I have often tried other products but have never been happy so have returned to the Revlon colour stay. Recently I did try max factor lasting performance and really liked it. It lasted well and was slightly lighter that the Revlon brand. I now use Max and my day product and Revlon colour stay when I want a more intense coverage. I think as you age the lighter product can sometime look better and not accentuate the wrinkles as much.

I find this extremely easy to use. Little bit of primer and then this glides on super smoothly and gives really good coverage. Any red areas or small spots are very easily covered. I love the fact that you can easily build coverage without it caking as well. Long lasting which is exactly what I need. I work in a cafe all day and this is the only foundation that lasts throughout my whole shift, even in summer. I do wear a powder over it to help set it and stop any oily patches showing.
