eveinheaven: Review: Revlon ColorStay Foundation

I have been testing out the Revlon Colorstay foundation now for almost 2 years and wanted to give you a quick review on this product.

This foundation is designed for combination to oily skin. It claims ot be longwearing, lightweight, non greasy and won't rub off, cake or fade.

I have to say that I am in a love-hate relationship with this product. It is my favourit foundation on some days and on others it drives me crazy.

Pros:

full coverage
nice finsih
very blendable
cheap
good color selection
stays non greasy for a long time

Cons:

rubs off in very oily places
settles into fine lines
cakes on spots
oxidizes a bit

If you dont have super super oily skin and not that many spots you will love this foundation. But I for myself am not blessed with such skin. Around the eye area the foundation rubs off really weirdly after about 2 hours. You can see a very obvious line and sometimes you find foundation patches all around your face. The most problematic area to apply this foundation for me is the chin. It sattles into lines, cakes on spots that I almost only have them there. My face looks really nice with this foundation on except of my chin. I look like a doll with a very caky chin.

Conclusion:
On good skin days this foundation is gorgeous. So if you have a bit oily skin without a lot of spots and you want a flawless foundation which stays on for a long time you will love it.
