Revlon ColorStay Foundation - Normal/Dry Skin Review

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.

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.

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!

This is one of my backup foundations if I cant afford to splurge on my normal foundation. I like to switch up between mineral and maximum cover but this is a nice go to sometimes. Not sure about 24hours I would never wear my foundation that long lol but it did last a full work day for me. I don’t use a powder or anything to set so I would imagine if I used powder to set it would last a lot longer but it wears the whole work day for me so I’m happy with that. It has a lightweight feel on the skin (doesn’t make me feel cakey and too done up) it evens out my skin tone well. I do need to add extra cover to my dark circles unfortunately these are genetic and require some serious work to get rid of !. Med-full coverage on me, matt finish. It was very easy to apply (im a hands on applier but would be great with a beauty blender). I didn’t get any breakouts or anything from it which is good. All in all this product lasts really well , good colour match for me I would highly recommend it.

love revlon have used it for years. great coverage, I didn’t get any breakouts or anything from it. its not to heavy on your skin. lasts all day. love love love it!

I tried this one and the combination/oily and both worked great. I found that different days my skin needed a different make up. I liked the feel and look and the fact I didn't break out using it.

Right off the bat, when I opened the bottle, I noticed it had an extremely powerful smell! I wouldn't go as far and say that it was unpleasant however I would have preferred that it didn't have a smell at all. Once you apply the foundation and let it sit on your face for a while, I noticed that it (the scent) seemed to simmer down then almost disappear after a while.

The foundation was very watery in the bottle and, like many foundations, a little cold when first applied on the face. I got the shade 'Caramel' and slightly regret it as it was way too red-toned for my face and made me look not great, to say the least. I guess that's what I get for buying online!

I like the consistency and the coverage. The foundation has reasonably good coverage and conceals any pimple scarring I may have attained.

I do wish I had the perfect shade for me then I would call this foundation a winner! Maybe I might attempt to put a powder to mattify it a bit slightly - I need to invest in some Stay Matte!

This is my favourite foundation that lasts all day (judging from my facial cleansing wipes) and is not greasy and I've found the perfect colour for winter and I change the shade slightly in summer. I try and buy when it is on sale but the price is on a par with other well known brands.

The reason why I love this foundation is because it comes in a great range of shades! it comes in numerous shades that would suit most skin colours. It has really good staying power, and is very hydrating on the skin. it is super buildable coverage too. i would definitely set it with a powder in the summer because it can get quite hot and sweaty. It has a very flawless finish and erases redness and scarring really well. would repurchase, it is worth the $40. it also lasts very well because you don't need to use much product to get a great coverage

This was my go to foundation it has good coverage, I do find it does wash me out and u look very mono-toned so if you don't contour/blush you may look very washed out.

It is great for its staying power without needing to be set which is a great advantage, I barely need to use concealer either with this product as does have the full coverage effect and hides blemishes well.
