REVIEW: Revlon Colorstay Whipped Creme Makeup Foundation

 

Review of Revlon Colorstay Whipped Creme Makeup Foundation

So today I’ll be reviewing my favourite drugstore foundation. Revlon Colorstay Whipped Crème Foundation has been there for a while. I’ve been wearing this daily since last 4 months. I have oily skin and having to find a good drugstore branded foundation has always been a difficult task for me. So when I bought it, I was a little apprehensive but it surprised me and surpassed all my expectations.

 

It comes in a thick glass tub kinda jar with black screw cap. The jar in itself is quite heavy. Inside there is a soft plastic cover provided to prevent spillage of the crème. Inspite of these the packaging gets messy. The texture of the foundation is of a thick crème, yet it’s not heavy on the skin. It gives a velvety finish. A little goes a long way.
The foundation gives a fairly good coverage, though it doesn’t conceal spots and pigmentations totally. I don’t need to apply too much powder after this as it makes my skin look too matte. Just a little powder on my T zone and I am done. It has an amazing wear time. I have worn this for good 12 hours and it was still there without much oxidisation. The foundation needs to blend quickly as it tends to set. Once the foundation sets I’ve never faced any problem of cakeyness. It looks like second skin.

I generally use this over my sunscreen or serum. But dry skinned women will need a moisturiser underneath. It contains spf but still photographs well.  I generally use my fingers to apply this. But it also gives a beautiful finish when applied with wet sponge.

I am using the lightest shade that is Natural Ochre which will suit every fair skinned women with warm undertones.
