Revlon ColourStay Foundation For Normal/Dry Skin...

I've had a love hate relationship with this foundation, at times I've loved it and thought it applies brilliantly and sometimes I've really disliked the way it looks. 

The one thing I hate about buying drugstore foundations is got to be the colour matching. I've always thought that to be an absolute mission, until someone told me that the best place to colour match is your inner wrist. And trust me that works brilliantly.

This foundation has definitely got to be one of the most long lasting/wearing foundations out of not of the drugstore foundations and even some of the high end ones. This foundation is super runny and can get messy and we all don't like that. But the way I use it is by shaking it, then opening it and using the product in the lid. You don't get too much product in the lid and it definitely doesn't get messy. To be honest I'm not a super fussy person and I think the finish is fine and it looks all great until you try to build on it. I find that building on his foundation makes the colour darker, and the one time I tried that it looked like I had got a nice tan from a holiday. Don't get me wrong, this foundation is brilliant but only if you apply a little, I wouldn't recommend putting more and more on. Maybe if you do want to build on it a lighter colour maybe a better option to go for so when it darkens it matches your skin tone, however I don't know if you'd like the finish. I haven't tried a lighter colour and building personally but you can try it out if you want. Another idea is that if you want more coverage you can use a BB cream under. I do think that applying little is good enough and that this foundation is good for everyday use. To be honest I like it enough to still be using it. I think is a type of product that you need to get used to and find the best way for you to apply it, to get that perfect look and for you to love it. I've gotten used to it and have had no problems with it recently, and have been liking the way my make up looks.

This ColourStay foundation costs £12.49 and can be purchased from Boots and Superdrug. It might be a bit pricey but both these stores do have offers such a 3 for 2.
