Poor. :(

This makeup is only good for people who have very very clean, blemish free skin. It is probably a medium coverage, but when you have any pimples or scarring, it shows through and looks cakey even when its not. Even though it does have a very nice matte finish, it look a bit plastic-like so I only wore it a few times until I bought some new foundation to wear instead of this one.

Tips: Looks amazing on my friend who has very clear, smooth, pale skin!

Rimmel Stay Matte Foundation

this is definitely a matte foundation, the coverage is also a full coverage which was awesome! the only thing i didnt like was that the color range is crap the darkest shade i could find anywhere local or online was a few shades too light for me and i am a medium tan, but i really wanted to try it so i mixed it with a darker foundation of mine, i definitely did like this foundation though for sure :)

Tips: work really fast lol

My Favorite Everyday Foundation

I love this foundation and it's the one I find myself reaching for every single day. It has a nice full coverage with a matte finish, it's a mousse formula and feels light as a feather on the skin, its super easy to work with and blends with minimal effort. I set it with a powder and it lasts the full day at work. The packaging is simple but effective, it's in a squeeze tube which is perfect as its a thicker consistenty so it's really easy to get the product out and control how much you are using. The only downside is that the colour range is very limited and the shade I have isn't a perfect match but it's still close enough to be wearable.

Cakey and heavy feeling

When I first swatched this foundation at the store, it looked so smooth and perfect, and I got so excited. Then I got home, applied it, and I was so disappointed. It wouldn't blend on my face and got stuck on all my imperfections. Furthermore it looked cakey and after applying it all, I could definitely feel, that i was wearing foundation - and a lot of it. Not my favourite at all and i definitely won't repurchase.

Tips: Might work for very clear skin

Stay Matte

This used to be my go-to foundation. I even have backups of this. However, I haven't been using it as much lately. I still really like it but I have found better ones.

This is great for my oily skin. However, it feels quite heavy so you know you have makeup on. It has good coverage too. Since this is a heavier foundation, you need to work harder in blending it on the skin to create a flawless finish. It can look cakey if it isn't applied well. I recommend a sponge rather than brushes. I use a beauty blender and it works better.

For the price, I like this for my oily skin but there are better foundations out there.

Holy grail! Saviour for oily teenage skin

I own the foundation in the shade Fair Ivory. The product comes in a simple, yet attractive purple and white tube. It is easy to squeeze the foundation out of and the tube always dispenses the correct amount, so there is no wastage. The foundation has a slight fruity scent to it which I really enjoy the smell of on my skin. The foundation has a dreamy texture and blends out very easily to a perfect colour match for my skin. It dries really nice and matte and works so well I can get away with not using a setting powder, which I've never been able to do with other matte foundations. (My skin is ridiculously oily). The foundation stays all day without oxidizing or going shiny and I am impressed. The coverage is also quite full and allows me to skip using concealer. It's actually managed to make my very oily skin feel normal and now I actually need to use a primer to soften my skin up. I would definitely repurchase this product as it is affordable and it stays matte and has good coverage.

Tips: Use a primer before applying to prevent the foundation from clinging to the hairs on your face.

rimmel stay matte

love it! i have used this for the last week,i have been putting it on my face with a blending eyeshadow brush in small swirls around my chin,forehead and cheeks.it goes in any large pores like a primer.i then apply my usual foundation.the finish is flawless as the rimmel stay matte has smoothed out the imperfections on my face.its better than most primers for a stay matt foundation.TRY IT THIS WAY.IT WORKS. also the packaging is great being a squeezy tube.

not for me

I brought this before i had to go out and needed a cheap foundation. Its okay, for its price its an okay foundation. But i felt it just went on a bit heavy and it was really easy to make it go on uneven, im defintley a liquid foundation girl so maybe that was it. However when i did manage to get the hang of it it did create quite a flawless look but felt quite heavy and cloggy.

Tips: Use a blender to apply it defintley helps

Cake cake cake cake

I love Rimmel! Howwwwwever, this foundation is so meh. I was recommended it as its a full coverage foundation. The texture is like a thick mousse. It covered everything and lasted all day but I looked super cakey and found that even set with trans powder or setting spray it way so thick and transferred onto everything.

I suppose if you didn't need full coverage but wanted a matte finish, this would be a good one for you. Just make sure to blend blend blend ❤️
