Revlon ColorStay Foundation - Combination/Oily Review

I purchased this a while ago as the lady told me it was a relatively good priced foundation that has good coverage and is good for your skin. I tried it and loved it immediately! It's easy to apply and with the right primer just smooths onto your skin even better! The oily/combination specification is really good too, it works with my skin even on bad days. Some parts of my face are oily and others are normal and it just works! Easy to blend and there are lots of shades to easy to find the right one for you. The only thing I find is that you really do need that lunch break touch up, if you have super oily skin as well it definitely needs a good powder over top, as well as a touch up.

I'm not really the kind of person who goes for full coverage foundation, so I love that this foundation is easy to sheer out, but is full coverage for those occasions where I'll need it. I love that theres no SPF, as I have a medium skin tone in winter and a dark skin tone in summer, and get the most horrific flashback. Colorstay photographs beautifully and if anything becomes more beautiful the more time it has on the skin. The finish, when I get oily, goes from a matte finish to a satin, so I prefer this foundation when its been on for a couple hours. Classy packaging, as you'd expect from Revlon, glass container with an easy to use pump which makes it easy for those who like to have their makeup hygienic. I prefer to apply it with a stippling or flat kabuki brush depending on how much coverage I'm wanting. Theres no offensive smell as far as I can remember, or that I noticed too much. I've actually accidentally slept in it before (oops) and in the morning my makeup actually looked exactly the same as it did the night before.

I really liked this foundation. It left my skin feeling soft and smooth and lasted all day. I struggle to find foundation for my skin that doesn't make me break out.

I love how this foundation gives me almost full coverage and last a really long time considering I work in front of a 250 degree grill and it doesn't melt off my face unlike other foundations I've tried. It doesn't make me break out which is great, but the tone is a bit too pink for my olive completion

This foundation has been a lifesaver to me, I have trouble with extremely dry patches of skin and also breakouts on my chin, this foundation covers it perfectly and stays on all day, its not too greasy its actually quite light compared to some other foundations, I apply it with my fingertips and dab & press it on all over my face & I like that it has SPF in it too, sometimes at lunch I will quickly touch up my face but its generally really good!

This is perfect for me like the mac also is it gives me such a light finish an it isn't so oily and doesn't look so greasy on my skin. It sticks so well to my face and I lie how easy it is to carry around and apply. You don't even need to touch ups when you've been doing hard work or having a long day it stays on and doesn't smudge at all.

I found the colorstay foundation great fro my skin and also it stays on for ages!! Pretty stoked for the price i paid.

I found it totes amaze!! is defo one of my favs and my go-to foundation tho i do sometimes find it feeling abit greesy to wear - overal preds good!!!

I bought this product on sale for around $20, and have had my bottle for a while now, using it most days. I really like the consistency of this foundation, it goes on nicely over a primer/moisturizer and blends really nicely, but can also build to give a great amount of coverage. I have a lot of freckles on my face, and this is one of the only foundations I've tried that makes my skin look even without completely hiding them, which I love. I do find I have to be careful when applying it on my nose, as my skin is a little drier there - next time I'd probably buy the dry skin version to see if that helps at all. The bottle is a little annoying when you get under halfway, as it takes a while to get product out, and you do have to scrub your hands to get it off if you use your fingers for blending or anything. Apart from that, I really like this foundation, it stays in place and doesn't impact on my skin. I don't know if I'd pay full price for it just because there are a lot of other high end products around $40 that also look good, but I'm definitely grabbing another bottle when it comes on sale!

I definitely recommend this foundation for someone wanting a drugstore, full coverage liquid foundation.

The lasting power is pretty good, it has a nice matte finish, and it comes with a pump so you can control how much you use. It has buildable coverage which is perfect for me as I have redness on my cheeks, so one layer on my face plus a lil extra on my cheeks is perfect for me. I find you do have to work quite fast when applying though as it does dry quickly.

Pretty good range of shades from pale to dark, I do find it a little on the pricey side when store-bought but can be found cheaper online.
