My first foundation

I've only just begun enjoying makeup so this is my first foundation. I did my reserch and found this one suited my skin type. So far I love it. Its easy to apply (i use a beauty sponge by chi chi) It blends really well The cover is really good but I still use a concealer There is not rub off (I wear a white polo at work and the collar is still white at my days end) Its medium coverage also buildable but I cant feel it on my skin which is great since I don't want to feel like I'm wearing a mask

Tips: Use a setting powder and also a setting spray just for extra staying power

LOVE

Been through 4 or 5 bottles of this foundation. Works well on oily skin, it isn't completely matte more of a satin finish but after being set with powder is matte. Great coverage i'd say medium/full defiantly buildable to a full coverage! Applies smoothly and effortlessly and lasts a great amount of time, i always wear this when going out for the night, it stays on and stays looking good through a full night of dancing! Really like this foundation!

Tips: i wouldn't recommend this one If your looking for a more natural everyday foundation and your not wanting full coverage , as it is full coverage and quite thick.

Great product

This is a good, cheaper option to the Estee Lauder double wear with equally good coverage and consistency. The product is easy to blend and lasts all day when set with a pressed powder. The pump bottle is also perfect for dispensing small amounts. I have oily/acne prone skin and this didn't break me out and also reduced shine.

WOW

Pros: - great full coverage - blends in really well - havent found that it oxidizes - lasts most of the day - good for my oily skin - love the pump - not as heavy as other foundations that ive tried - I tend to touch my face a lot during the day (i know its bad but i do it a lot) and i find that this foundation doesnt come off as easily as the others ive tried.

Cons: - I find towards the end of the day that it hasnt lasted the specified 24 hours... but i dont mind that because its the end of the day and i dont plan on wearing it for 24 hours. - might not be for extremely pale people - my friend said that she didnt find any in her shade because she was too pale for it. - also not sure if the foundation suits darker skin as i have lighter skin and so didnt particularly check out their darker shades.

Would definitely recommend it to others who want full coverage foundation - bought it online for $20 which is great.

Incredible foundation

I have now used a whole bottle of this product and absolutely love it! It gives me a near flawless coverage and lasts me a good day at work. I use this product on my clients as it really evens out their skin tone and gives a good amount of coverage

Worth my $40 all day everyday!

I found this last year in the local chemist. I asked the retail assistant for her advice on a good coverage foundation for combination skin. I wanted something light weight but still able to hide all my imperfections whilst still looking natural. After noting all my desires she quickly pointed me in the direction of Revlon Colour-Stay. She gave me a small pot of three colours to use so I could find the perfect or closest match. I ended up going with medium beige. After trying them all I found that I have been using a shade or two lighter in every foundation which is why people comment that I look pale. Ah-ha moment!

The price at first made me hold my breath when I swiped my card but it was what I had to do to get my much needed foundation. The bottle is a little less pretty than I am used to with my foundations. But as they say you can't judge a book by its cover. It's what is on the inside that counts. It is cylindrical and simple yet chic.

The foundation itself is very smooth and creamy. It comes out of the pump bottle very easily,with no clogging. I use a brush to apply to my face in dabs then use my beauty blender to give it a flawless look and no streaks.

The foundation blends almost effortlessly. I find that I use far less product than most other foundations because a small bit goes along way. Especially when using a blender. The coverage is exactly as promised. It is medium to full which is what I was after. The best part is it feels as though I have no makeup on, it's just that lightweight.

The true test will be if it lasts a full day in summer when I am walking around and sweating alot. I am pleasantly surprised by just how longwearing this foundation is. Although it has some wear, especially on my cheeks and forehead; it is for the most part in tact. I am impressed. Who knew a brand like Revlon could outlast other higher end brands like this and give better coverage to boot. The combination type foundation is perfect for my dry and oily patches skin. It doesn't make me look like an oil slick but still gives me a glow so my dry parts don't stick out. Gimmie moooore!

Tips: Use a primer to give it a flawless base

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.

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.

By far my favourite alternative to Double Wear

I have been using this for about 2 years now - I was searching for an alternative that would give me the same coverage and length of stay as the amazing Estee Lauder Double Wear. This one ticks all the boxes!!! The coverage is really good, and it literally stays on all day. I get home from work and my skin still looks great. The bottle usually lasts me a few months as well which is great. It has an easy to use pump that dispenses just the right amount as well.

Tips: Look around for better pricing - ive found Farmers to be the most expensive so fart. Chemist Warehouse is cheapest i've found :)
