My quest...for the perfect EVERYTHING

It's been awhile. I've been so busy with life, working hard, playing...not so much hahaha. Hey, I need to save money to buy my car in a month, so I've been neglecting the makeup quest for a little while. I've been searching for the perfect foundation foreverrr. Personally, just for myself, I love mineral foundation. ELF makes a good one for cheaaap. And most drugstore brands are making them now. However, for photoshoots, and sometimes every other occasion, clients don't like it. So, I'm going to do a review on my lastest purchase. Revlon colorstay foundation.



Price: $13 at most drugstores and grocery stores
Overall Rating: 4 1/2 out of 4
Packing: 5 out of 5
Product: 4 1/2 out of 5
would I buy again: Yes

Pros: formulas for all types of skin( oily/combination, dry etc)Good range of colors, goes on smooth, super blendable.

Cons: price. Maybe it's just me, but $13 is a little more on the expensive side for a liquid foundation. Most higher end foundations are just $6 + more expensive than this.


Revlon Colorstay foundation has become a sensation with MUA's around the world. You can definately find several reviews on youtube, and if you watch tutorials...A LOT of people use it. I most certainly understand why. The liquid is not too thick so it blends very easily. I apply the product with my fingers or with a damp sponge. The great thing about drugstore brands is that there is always plenty of color options. I've had a hard time buying concealer or foundation from some high end brands( ie benefit) that only supply 3 or 4 shades. I use the formula for oily/combination skin, which is also a good option to have available for consumers. The makeup lasts almost all day. I give it a little credit, since I work in a cafe and I'm always perspiring and running all over the place. I would definately recommend Revlon Colorstay Foundation to anyone. GO OUT AND TRY IT!


Hope everyone is having a good week and keep smiling.
