Revlon Colorstay Foundation Review!!
OMGGGGG now this shouldve been my first post! So we all have our holy grail of foundations and for me personally I swear by Revlon Colorstay Foundation. I have researched, tried and tested so many foundations out there; M.A.C Studio Fix Fluid/ Face and Body/ Studio Tech, Estee Lauder Double Wear etc...and I always always come back to this, and have done since I was 15- when I was very acne prone and needed maximum coverage to give me a confidence boost :( poor me...It's quite pricey for a drugstore brand £12.99 at Boots (they do have 3 for 2 across products quite often though) but I always try to source it for cheaper, yep you guessed it eBay!! You can get it for a few pounds cheaper but its so worth it.
Pros:
* Stays on for 12-16 hours plus! And it really does, I'm NEVER one to be touching up on nights out or during the day because I dont need to!...enjoy your day/nigh without having to check your skin constantly!
* Gives medium to full coverage - you can look clear and flawless with this foundation without looking cakey
* Doesnt dry your skin out - I have problem areas around my eyes and mouth but never have this with Revlon Colorstay
* Comes in a variety of colours
Cons:
* Smell isnt great but hey whos smellin your face, spray some perfume ;)
* Some might say the packaging, but I don't see it as a problem, probably because Im so used to it. If it's a problem for you maybe get a travel pump bottle from Superdrug or something?
* Can be a little tricky to blend and layer when dry so you have to move quite quickly
* Tad pricey for a drugstore brand
Its probably worth checking out other reviews, my favourite is Makeupalley for reviews, it useful for almost every beaity product out there!
I will and always will give this foundation 10 stars. If I could add this to my professional kit I sooo would but its not very economic - spacewise...ah well I shall keep it for myself ;)
