This really is a great foundation for a 'drugstore' foundation. The coverage is medium to full depending on how much you use, it definitely buildable but you have to work quickly as it dries/sets in no time!
I found this lasts quite well on my skin during the day, I tend to wear this over a BB cream and use my fingers to blend it out - a damp sponge also does a great job.
Tips: Work quickly when blending/applying.
I really love this foundation for a full matte coverage. They have a wide range of colors which was awesome for me as I found this was the first ever foundation that match my skin tone. If you apply it right it looks just flawless on the skin. This will be one foundation I will always have in my collection.
Tips: Stipple onto the skin first and then buff. Work in small areas. I always do one side at a time then my forehead just because I find this foundation sets quickly.
I found this foundation to be similar to the MAC Studio Fix Foundation Fluid. The finish is always really nice although it can be quite hard to work with as it dries quite quickly but it can also be mixed with other foundations to get really good coverage. I always love the way my skin looks after using this, it’s a classic foundation that I always have a bottle of :)
I used to use this consistently a few years ago as it's affordable and does a pretty good job. Nowdays I only purchase this when I've run out of my Napoleon foundation and can't make a trip to Auckland to get any more.
Revlon colourstay has a good coverage, esp if you suffer from red veiny cheeks as I do and is very easy to apply, with either fingers, a sponge or a brush. They have a good colour range too.
The main reason I stopped using daily was I found it was rubbing off during the day around my chin and tip of my nose and I just don't have the time for touch ups during the day.
It's a good all rounder foundation, esp for those just starting out. I like that it has a fairly matte finish, as I'm not into the dewy look at all.
Tips: You may find you have to use powder over the top if you need this to last all day.
I use this foundation everyday and love it. The colour selection is fantastic. 150 buff is the perfect shade for my skin as unlike my other foundations it is not so much yellow based, nor red based... just natural brown skin colour. It gives me good coverage for everyday and is dirt cheap. I buy mine of Trademe for $18. Only con is it does not come with a pump unless you buy instore for double the price. This means I have to clean it off the back of my hand after application. It feels nice on my dry skin and does not go cakey on dry areas.
Tips: It does feel sticky after application so you must alway use a powder on top.
This is a basic staple for any foundation collection. The product provides great medium to full coverage and has a matte finish to it. The colour range is very good and I have found my perfect match of 110 Ivory. It does set quite quickly but it is not a major issue. This foundation also has good staying power and requires minimal touch ups throughout the day.
I recently switched to this product from Revlon photoready. I have tried this product in both formulas but still unsure I which one I prefer. This foundation is a medium to full coverage and applies nicely. I find that it lasts a full day on my face but don't know if it would last 24 hours like it suggests that it would. I like the colour range of this product I wear the lightest shade and its a good value for money because one bottle will last me at least 6 months of everyday use.
Tips: Get colour matched to find your correct shade.
I use this foundation as my backup.... I do like this foundation but I do find it to me very cakey on me and half way through the day it seems to come off.
I find it very hard to work with as it dries quite fast, but it does do a full coverage and leaves a nice finish. Also for the price of it l, which you can get for $22 on sale I find it a must have for a make up collection.
All in all I do like this foundation but I wear it more in the night if I'm going out :)
Tips: Much easier to work with, with a foundation brush or even your fingers!
Defiantly long wearing and non-transferable. I have normal skin and I find that colour stay for normal skin does make my skin quite dry and flakey. I used the combination to oily and it fits me MUCH better!
Tips: Make sure to contour and/or blush and highlight. Since it literally covers every flaw on your face it can look ghostly if you don't contour and blush effectively!
Since discovering this foundation it is the only one I use! Light weight and smooth, when applying this foundation never looks cakey! I like that you can build up to the amount of coverage you want and the product doesn't settle in to your fine lines/wrinkles. I like to pump a small amount of product on to my fingers, stipple this on to my face and then use a flat top brush to buff out. Although the bottle is small, you dont need a large amount of product so this foundation will last you quiet a while, which is a bonus for the price!
