Revlon ColorStay Foundation - Combination/Oily Review

I am not using this foundation at the moment because I am currently trying out another but this foundation was my go to for years and years! It was great at keeping my oily skin at bay and at the time of using it I didnt find it too cakey. It is definately a foundation that looks best if applied in a full coverage which was great because thats the look I go for every time. One thing I found with this foundation is that they do come with a red undertone to them (correct me if Im wrong) so for someone who has more of a yellow undertone or someone who is wanting to cover their redness it may not suit their skintone. Also now that I am currently using another foundation which does have similar benefits as Revlon Colorstay I do find Colorstay to be a bit on the thick side. However I do find this a great foundation as it does provide full coverage, controls oil and stays all day with a matte/semi matte finish. In my eyes it is up there in the "cheap foundation catagory" in the way of quality and quantity. In my personal experience if you are wanting a great foundation unfortunately you do have to pay the money but Colorstay is a good start!

I was turned onto this type of foundation by a friend and received excellent help from the sales assistant on the right type of foundation for my skintone. While this product has excellent long lasting coverage and an even tone, I find my skin is very very dry by the end of the day and in need of a very strong night moisturiser.

This foundation was bought last minute as I had no foundation left but it surprised me as it turned out to be a great foundation. It was a good coverage and meant that i did not have to reapply throughout the day. The colour was very natural and meant that i did not have to use other products. It was well priced and I was very happy with it throughout the time it lasted. I would recommend it to others and would consider buying it again. Good Product!!

I bought this for about a year before deciding it probably wasn't for me. It is a really great coverage and I liked that there was a decent amount of colours and shades to choose from, as I prefer more of a yellow base foundation and this had a good range.

It did last all day with minimal touching up to be done which I was pleased with

The price was good but my only problem was that I have very dry skin and this really did make it worse I found. Even with intense moisturising regimes I would end the day with my skin feeling so dehydrated and thick with color stay. This is ultimately why I changed but in saying that it is probably the perfect foundation with combination and oily skin types so each to their own.

Was a great foundation over all.

Revlon color stay is one of the best most affordable foundations available, it doesn't leave your face shiny like some foundations and has complete coverage highly recommended

I've tried this foundation twice. First with the normal formula and again when the foundation came out with oily/combo. Its quite a thick formula and definitely has a full coverage and sits beautifully on the skin. BUT the colour range isn't that fabulous especially for people with a yellow undertone. Its quite pink based which is a shame. It also broke me out so badly when I used the oily/combo even though that is my skin type to a tee. I don't know why, but my skin just hated this product as much as I loved the finish. This foundation will work wonders for some and be a nightmare for others!

This Foundation lasts for ages which i found so good. It has a great full coverage finish to it. This is my favourite foundation, even over the many ones from sephora and mac that I've tried. It stays matte all day and lasts about 10 hours on my oily skin. I didn't rate it a 5 because I would like it to have a pump, and also it's pricey for a drugstore foundation It's very easy to apply, not too thick, it didn't oxidize on me and looks natural. Coverage is medium but is buildable to full coverage.

This is my everyday foundation and has been for a couple of years now. I love that it provides a medium/full coverage where you can still see my freckles underneath (lightly). It is also non greasy which is a plus. My only problem with it is that when you apply setting power on top it tends to cake up quite a bit :( Otherwise it's a great products!

It's amazing. It provides excellent coverage over my acne scarring. It lasts for hours without any touch ups which is great. It doesn't make my skin look oily at all. It is very light on my skin.

However, because it is 24hours it can be quite hard to get off. I also think it is quite pricey. When I purchased it, it cost me $45.00. I wouldn't purchase it as often based on the cost.

I've been using this product everyday for 3 months and I still have 3 quarters of the bottle left. If you only apply a small amount you will be able to get great coverage and the product will last a long time.

It is really full coverage. I don't use it often because I prefer a more natural medium coverage so I only tend to use this if I'm going out clubbing or if I'm having a bad skin day (acne) If you like full coverage foundations you should like this one :)
