Revlon ColorStay Foundation - Combination/Oily Review

This is such full coverage, I can almost get away without using concealer most days. It survives the worst weather and with my oily skin, I don't find myself having to use blot powder later in the afternoon either. It doesn't move, melt or look patchy and a little bit of product really does go a long way! Buff is a perfect match for my skin colour and in photos, it looks flawless. I love to apply this with a sponge to give a truly flawless finish and set with powder.

This was given to me by the Revlon rep because I was saying how much I loved double wear. She said this is Revlons answer to double wear. She gave me the colour sand beige and I was excited to try this. I always use a primer so I went about applying this foundation. I found it went on very smoothly and evenly. There was no shine and it gave a good coverage. I use my fingers to apply foundation. It lasted all day long and was easy to remove with my usual cleanser. I am happy with this foundation and will repurchase.

This is a really good cheap alternative to my favourite foundation (Estee Lauder Double Wear), however I find it doesn't last as long and tends to discolour a bit during the day - it can leave me a bit blotchy and orange by the evening. However overall a really good value product.

This foundation is the one that I always come back to. I've tried many but this one is the most consistent. It's great to wear all day long with no touch ups needed, it doesn't cake on the skin and it has really good coverage. It is very similar to Estee Lauder double wear but I actually prefer Revlon because it applies a lot easier - the double wear tends to sink straight into your skin before you've got a chance to blend it around!

I bought this product twice to get the right match. I even when into farmers to get colour matched and when I tried it at home I found that it had a pink undertone. The coverage for this foundation is good and it is very buildable. I found that this foundation is very shiny after applying so I used a powder to set it and it lasted all day. The smell is foundation wasn't too strong either. I don't think I would buy this product again as I couldn't find a yellow undertone colour that would match my skin tone even though when I researched it online it said it did have a yellow undertone.

I use this product when i cant afford to buy Estee Lauder or Mac, I find the coverage great but it doesnt have the lasting power of the two foundations mentioned previously. Would still recommend to anyone with oily skin as it does hide it well.

I first used this foundation about 15 years ago and have since flirted with many other brands. It was recently on sale and I decided to revisit this old favourite. The formulation has changed for the better over the years and I just bought my second bottle. I find that it lasts all day and does not transfer onto telephones, clothes, etc. It provides great coverage and I like the inbuilt SPF as an addition to my normal sun protection. There are a range of wearable colours to choose from and for the price, I think it is good value for money.

For me - someone who typically works a ten hour day - this foundation is amazing, since I do not need to reapply it and it stays on for the whole day!

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
