Didn't Work for Me

I heard great things about this but I was disappointed, it felt really cakey and heavy. It was hard to blend and it did not sit right with my acne and scarring. I would not recommend this to people who have acne scarring or breakouts.

Cake face

I picked this up on sale from Farmers for $12, so cheap! I had high hopes for this but unfortunately it was not good on my skin.

I like the squeezy tube as it makes it easy to get the right amount of product out, I selected the shade ivory which was a tad dark for my complexion. I tried applying several ways, it looked great for about an hour but then I looked like a cakey mess.

It settled into my pores and really badly around my nose. It felt heavy and mask like. Each time I put this on I couldn't wait to take it off again. I would not recommend for dry skin. Not a good foundation for me.

Good upgrade

It is a really good upgrade from their old stay matte foundation, it now delivers what it promises. It gives a really matte finish without looking cakey if applied sparingly with a brush. It is NOT the foundation you can quickly put on using your fingers. Only need a small amount to give really good coverage and it keeps the shine at bay. I don't recommend it to dry skin, it is best for oily, acne-prone skin. It didn't break me out.

Tips: Apply sparingly with a damp sponge or with a brush and don't forget to moisturize underneath.;)

Hi girls! I think it would just sit in fine lines on mature skin and also would be very drying. I can only use it on days I have no dry patches. I think they made this for young & troubled skin.

Oh poop, I was going to get some until I read about not recommended for dry skin. Does it make it look all cakey or flake if you have dry skin. I always fully moisturise and prime before using foundation, will it be okay as long as I do that? :-)

A lovely surprise!

I bought this off ASOS which has Free Shipping and great prices (yay!) and I have to say I am in love! It absolutely works exactly the way it says it does! It's almost got a mousse-like formula which seriously does stay all day! It provides a flawless, long-lasting finish, which - for me - is often difficult because I have combo skin. It minimizes not only pores, but also any pimples or bumps on the face! A little goes a long way as well. As for the packaging - it almost has a matte look about it. It's in a squeezy sort of BB cream type bottle which is great for getting every last drop of product out! The ONLY downside about this product is that the shade ivory is not that light so I think the shades might run fairly dark - so maybe not so great for fair skinned beauties! Overall though, a FANTASTIC foundation and I recommend 100%! Cheap and cheerful

Tips: Don't bother using this with a sponge as it doesn't apply like normal foundation. I'd definitely use a brush to blend the product into the face.

Rimmel Stay Matte Foundation

Perfect for when I want a matte look,Purchased from Asos a few months ago super cheap and free shipping cant complain,Prefer to start off applying this with my fingers then with my brush to buff out I find it had amazing coverage and as long as you don't use too much like most things...,Love the packaging with the squeeze tube means you can get all the product out but you cant put it back in so be careful with how much you squeeze out.Priming is a must!!!

so good

bought this for 5 dollars from kmarts huge makeup clearance. it was amazing!!! good colour match :) a very tiny pea size manages to cover almost my entire face! super matte, in fact could go without powder if you wanted to but i always use powder anyways for lasting a longer time.

Tips: use your fingers, if you use brush it will be too sheer and since its matte aka more cakey, it has more obvious brush marks

argh what to say!!!

omg the best foundation that i have ever used!!! its so feathery and feels light on my skin. lasts all day without sweating. its completly matte, you only need the tiniest amount and will cover everything, its a full coverage foundation which i live and having oily skin theres no shine or flashback. only warning would be to people with dry flakey skin i dont think it would work on. this is blendable and just amazing for me. It is nearly all il use in my makeup kit and everyone i have introduced it to loves it aswell. I couldnt be more happier with this product and for less than $20 how could you go wrong. it hides imperfections so well.

Tips: use a primer. rimmel also has the matte foundation primer which is for this foundation range and is also fabulous.

matte mousse for sure

This is a amazing product for such a small cost in store at farmers it is only $19nzd so worth it. I find it light weight and easy to wear. But if I apply in the morning then set it with the stay matte powder by mid day I have to blend it out abit as it goes quite patchy but then it lasts all day from there on. So easy to remove.

A nice everyday foundation

I recently purchased this product and having read mixed reviews approached it with some caution and not much expectation.

After using it though, I felt it was actually a very good product for the price. The product has a nice creamy consistency, gives you a lovely matte coverage and you don't have to worry about adding any setting powder to it. I felt even on my dry skin, that this works quite well so long as I moisturise with a good moisturiser. The foundation doesn't feel heavy at all and you just have a nice,easy, comfortable foundation that you can wear every day and have in your bag.

Tips: If you have very dry skin, make sure you use a really good moisturiser to make sure your skin doesn't dry out and the foundation goes on smooth. Use a hydrating primer as well to give your skin a beautiful finish once you've completed applying the foundation.
