I have to say drugstore products has definitely come a long way....I
get ecstatic when I find something from the drugstore that I actually
like and would recommend =)
I've always said, if you're going to
splurge on something, invest in a really good primer and foundation.
Well... not today =) This product undeniably competes with some of my
high end products if not better and withstands my day to day
undertakings.
I purchased this Revlon Colorstay Whipped Creme Foundation at my local CVS for about $13.99.
This
foundation has full coverage with just one layer, (at least for me
anyway) and perfect for Oily/Combination even problematic skin as it
contains salicylic acid and you don't need to set it with powder because
it dries matte for about 11 hours and I started to see separation at
the 12th hour mark (It claims 24 hours but who really wears foundation
for 24 hours though?!?!? lol)
Only slight trouble I had with
this is that, it was kind of hard to blend with my brushes or beauty
blender sponge, It blends well with fingers but I am one of those who
just uses my fingers to place the product on my skin and blend with
brushes or beauty blender sponge so I had to somehow figure out a way to
make this work with my brush and alas, one method I tried was
successful =) I added a small amount of moisturizer to give it a little
slip and help the foundation blend easier with a synthetic flat top
kabuki brush.
With the heavier and mattifying texture of this
foundation I wouldn't recommend usage under-eye or eye lids and/or if
you have dry skin.
Overall, I really like this foundation
and the way it just controls oil and definitely going to be my
non-special occasion day to day, warm/summer go to foundation.
Do you have this product? What do you think of this foundation?
