Revlon ColorStay Makeup for Mixed/Oily Skin

First things first! So Amazon has the best prices for this product by far, BUT it's very hard to get the colour correct even using swatch images on Google. I'd highly recommend going into a pharmacy (boots, Superdrug or any store that stocks this brand) and matching up your colour. If you've never done this before then here's how you go about it! Go into the store armed with face wipes and a small mirror compact, and with no makeup on. If there is no store assistant to help, there will be testers. Pick three that look similar toned to your skin. You will be one of three tones; warm, cool, or neutral. Google can help you figure out which tone, but if you're unsure, don't worry! Open the first tester and apply a very small amount from your jawline (around where you'd put your bronzer) downwards, til you have about 1 inch on your neck. Repeat with the other two testers, so you now have three different colours on your skin. Don't bother trying on your wrist or back of your hand as the skin will be different colours of course. Open your compact and check out the swatches on your face/neck. Now, and this is important, go into the daylight at the front of the store (don't feel silly, makeup counters often recommend this!). Now choose the colour which looks the most natural across the two. If you're unsure, go with the one that looks best in daylight as you're not likely to be under those overhead store lights with your full face of makeup on, and if you are going to be you can always add some bronzer :) This foundation works really well for my combination/oily skin. It lasts, manages shine, doesn't cake, is blendable whilst applying and you can have it from a light to full coverage. For a light coverage apply 5 minutes after your moisturizer. I usually go for a medium coverage so standard rules apply; cleanse tone moisturize and prime (Maybelline fit me is here on Amazon and rocks, but primer is optional with this). Apply your moisturizer, wait ten minutes, then, optionally, apply a primer suited to your skins needs. Wait two minutes and apply your foundation, I use a stippling brush, but, sponges, foundation brushes etc will work just as well. Apply from the center of your face outwards. Lots of tips on Google :) I always set this foundation with a translucent setting powder but that is also optional, I use elf brand also available here I think. Then add your bronzer, blusher and a little highlighter. That's my advice to make this awesome foundation last aaaall day. I occasionally have to top up the setting powder if it's a very hot day, other than that I get 10 hours out if it, possibly more if I tried it which I have not. Have fun!! ♥️

Have been using this foundation for years. Was very pleased to find it online when the shops stopped stocking it. Goes on lovely with good coverage which I need. Won't even try another make

Great for oily skin

I like this foundation as it goes on smooth. It doesn't last too long on my very oily skin but nothing ever does. It's a good price.

The product arrived within 24 hours and was exactly how I was hoping and expecting it to be. Very good skin colour and light coverage. Best of all stays put all day. A very good purchase

I always use this Revlon colorstay foundation. The coverage is fantastic and it stays on until I clean it off.

The best foundation!

just what i ordered and came on time

Il prodotto è arrivato puntuale. Fondotinta molto coprente ma non appesantisce il volto, non segna la pelle, non va nelle pieghe e anzi rende la pelle molto setosa e luminosa. Ha una buona idratazione, ma per chi ha la pelle molto secca, consiglio di applicare sempre la crema prima. Ottima durata, mi rimane intatto per tutto il giorno . Consigliatissimo!

Melhor base que já usei, minha pele é extremamente oleosa e essa base consegue cobrir sem deixar com aspecto oleoso.

thank you for the prompt delivery

Repongo esta base una y otra vez, es un clásico que siempre funciona. Alta cobertura que sin embargo deja un acabado natural, no acartona y dura en la piel toda mi jornada. No he encontrado todavía otra que la pueda sustituir, siempre regreso a ella.

Best makeup I have ever used. I have been using this for many years and am a die hard fan. The coverage is amazing and stays on all day. It doesn't even feel like I am wearing makeup when I use it. Never creases or cakes. Just the perfect makeup.
