Revlon ColorStay Foundation - Combination/Oily Review

I've had this foundation for about 3 months now, and it is by far my number one! I absoloutly love it to pieces, its is my go to full coverage foundation (i wear less coverage ones normally but for going out or special occasions I always wear this.) Like I said it has great coverage although you have to be sure to buff it in properly otherwise it can look like its just sitting on your face can create obvious foundation lines. Dont need much of it and doesnt make my skin look shiny or greasy :) a definite must have as it also lasts all night without needing any touch ups.

I always come back to this foundation!! Great colour match and coverage, not too heavy, doesn't go orange.

It doesn't take a lot to completely cover up my acne scarring and it gives a flawless finish. I noticed that it also controls shine well and has a nice matte finish which is ideal for my oily skin. However it does set quite fast when I apply it to my skin so I have to blend it in quite fast to avoid it looking too cakey.

I have used this foundation for 4 years now and in this time have tried other foundations to, but keep on coming back to Revlon. My skin is oily so I find this stays on nicely not like others that seemed to slide off during the day

This is my favourite lower end foundation that I have uses for years now .it is a thick consistency and you would need to moisturize or use a primer before. It dries up quick so try to work with sections for better and smooth application. Although it says 24hours, I haven't had it on for that long.i think it lasts about 7-8hours and needs to be touched up again.ofcourse you would need to power over it to last longer.overall, this is a very good foundation and rated as one of the best foundations

I have to admit, when it comes to makeup, foundation is one thing i dont mind spending extra money on to find a good one, However lately ive been really loving these "Drugstore" brands, My go to foundation is Rimmel match perfection and i find this one to be very similar in consistency and coverage, the one difference is Rimmel has a refreshing feel and a pleasant scent, where as this has no scent and feels like..... well like foundation.

Coverage: I would say is medium coverage, is build able but too easy to cake.

Consistency: A semi-thick liquid, definitely feels like your wearing foundation but isnt heavy.

Blend ability: GREAT for blending, and with a wide shade range its easy to find a color that matches or comes extremely close

Oxidization: I thought at first that there wasnt an oxidizing problem with this foundation, and compared to alot of other foundations ive used, there isnt, BUT after a few hours on the face i did notice a very slight color difference. Darker and a little faded.

Also just a random side note, After a few hours wear this foundation does have that nasty sweaty damp smell that some foundations get after a few hours wear. I use a facial spritz to get rid of it though.

This foundation was the first foundation I ever used, i have tried alot of foundations and always come back to this one! The combination/oily combo is very easily to apply with a foundation brush and to blend in it doesnt have a thick consistency which is good. They have heaps of colours for your skin which I found was good to! Its very affordable and lasts quite a long time. Would definitely recommend to anyone that is looking for a foundation that would be there everyday wear as you can apply a light coverage and a fuller coverage to.

this was the first foundation i ever bought. i was so nervous in the store but the lady helping me was helpful and took the time to help me choose the right colour. i has been very forgiving and as i get better, it gets better and easier to use every day. will investigate other products from this line in the near future

Have used this product for years every day. Lasts all day long and doesn't rub off. Perfect cover and looks flawless.

I first started using this product about 4 years ago when my son was born. I found it was so easy to apply and blend, it took me 5 min to apply and lasted the whole day. When your a busy mum you want a foundation that doesn't slide off your face half way through the day and Colorstay was perfect. I have been using it ever since.
