Golden Beige

This light way formula is beautiful when on the skin. Awesome coverage but light enough on the skin without looking cakey. It gives your skin enough room to breathe.

Applied to the skin with a mock beauty blender it was easy to blend out and not to hard to get an even look across my face. My noticeable blemishes hidden and a nice dwey look to my face was given. A flawless finish.

I don't like a dwey finish with my foundation so set it with a finishing powder which worked amazingly. It didn't transfer and it didn't shift for quite sometime...but it didn't last the 24hrs as stated.

Wears up to 24hrs is what is stated on the bottle but I can assure you this is not the case. After a day in this foundation it had shifted from my chin and cheeks. Applied at 9am taking it off at 9pm there were noticable patches where the foundation no longer sat. However that is 12 hours of staying power which is pretty amazing! And a foundation I can work with, especially with how affordable it is x

Light Coverage

I picked this bottle up in Splashstore sale. I couldn't resist the 70 % off too good to pass. I love foundations and I'm still hunting for my perfect full coverage foundation.

The bottle of this foundation is pretty average crew top lid. I prefer pumps as it's easier to manage the amount of foundation coming out. The consistency of this liquid is smooth . I can't remember what shade I chose at the time. I know it was a dupe for Mac NC40.

With application I find it easy to spread out across my skin. I have a lot of spots and pigmentation to hide. This did nothing to hide. It faded within an hour of wear. I even put two different primers on at the same time to layer it still no good. I've almost finished the bottle results the same.

I'm glad I got to give this foundation a try at an affordable price. I think drugstore make up is too expensive in new zealand. I still haven't found a good one yet. Ive spent heaps now trying to get an affordable drugstore foundation . I'm definately going to save up for a high end foundation.

best foundation.

I got this product on sale at my local chemist about 3 years ago and I swear by it! the coverage is amazing and it sits SO nicely on the skin. The formula is fantastic, very lightweight and not cakey. It has amazing coverage with just a thin layer but can easily be built up. As a very very pale girl, it's hard to find a pale foundation that doesn't oxidize and this foundation doesn't. The staying power of this foundation is very good, not 24hrs but more like 15hrs.

Tips: there is no pump so be careful when pouring out the product!

Worth my money

This foundation has two packaging, the one with the pump and the one without. It's easy to use because of its new packaging(with pump). I used to have the old one without a pump(yes! thats how long i've been using this product).

This product doesn't actually stay for 24hours. This is long wearing but not to the extent that it stays for a whole day and night. I can say that this product stays on my face for about 10 hours or so. That's why I like it because I hate retouching my makeup whenever I go out.

It's a perfect formula for those who have combination skin type like me, I am actually not sure with those people who have oily skin.

For the price, I really think that it's worth my money because it's really affordable and I don't have to put a primer whenever I use it. Yes! That's how intact the formula is.

High quality, budget friendly

I have used Revlon Colorstay Combo/oily foundation for about 6 months now. I find this foundation easy to blend (referred method being beauty blender). I have found the shade range a little limited but have been able to easy find shades when needed (pale, fake tanning, summer tan). The foundation lasts a full day with primer and does not sink into pores or break down. Revlon colorstay has been my go-to foundation for everyday. I make sure to buy the foundation with a pump!

Tips: Damp beauty blender for easy blendability Set with powder for extra matte finish

Good quality for price

I've used Revlon Colorstay on and off for a while now and I think for the price your getting a reasonable deal. It has a great colour selection and is super cheap! I do find though that when applying it goes very streaky as in you can see the brush lines and sometimes would be slightly patchy on my skin. Also once your face has any shine to it, it does wipe off quite easily. If I found myself unable to afford my double wear I would buy this again but probably wouldn't choose to. Medium coverage to buildable but can look cakey. Also made me sneeze every time I used it hahah.

Tips: Have a clean brush to buff it out once you've applied to get rid of brush strokes!

Revlon Colourstay Foundation - My go to foundation

I use Revlon colourstay foundation in oily/ combination medium beige. This is my go to foundation as it is suitable for my skin tone (olive) and the hue of many foundations are often to orange for me. It has good coverage, especially when matched with the Revlon concealer and a flawless finish when blended properly. Works best when finished with Revlon powder to set the foundation as it can be a bit oily if you don't set it. I also have sensitive skin and a lot of foundations will often give me blemishes but this doesn't as I think it is oil free (don't quote me on that) but I do also use a silicone barrier cream as well.

Tips: I have found blending of the foundation works best with fingers (not a sponge) and you don't need much of this, if you use to much the makeup can look over done.

best foundation

one of my favourite easily available foundations. they have a pretty small colour range but they do have some good pale shades as i am very pale and they have a shade that is perfect for me. very long lasting and doesnt dry or look oily or anything.

Great for the price and availablity

Revlon is great for being easily accessible from local Farmers, even the smaller branches carry at least Revlon so this foundation is my favourite option when I need something to grab quickly, I first found this when shopping in Ashburton whilst visiting and loved it said it was for combi skin and the shade range was quite good, easily found a shade that matched.

The application is good when used with either a brush or damp sponge, it settles nicely, is long lasting, doesn't sink into the pores and gives a nice soft look to the face without being too dewy or too matte, a nice healthy medium. Doesn't break up around the nose or smile lines until well after the 8 hour mark and by then I am ready to be rid of the makeup anyway.

Only Foundation I will buy!

This gives great coverage, the color matches are wonderful the range is large and its the only product i have used for 4 years now!

Tips: Apply with a sponge it goes further! and it can be tricky to wash off your hands.
