I'm so disspointed by this foundation, I had such high hopes. I bought the one for oily/combination skin. It firstly oxidized 2/3 shades darker on my skin after it set, it then melted/disspeared on my skin leaving it looking so oily, i had to blot my face several times by the time it was noon. Not worth the price, never even reached half the bottle before i gave it to a friend. Possibly works better on people who have dry skin. Also the coverage was not great, was not even good. My cheaper Maybelline superstay foundation outperformed in terms of coverage and finish.
My shade is Medium Beige 005 - Oily/Combination
This foundation stays out without needing a touch up for about 10 hours.. never tried it for 24 cause that's just a bit gross haha but I'm sure it lives up to its name! Shine is significantly less while wearing colorstay oily/Combination but doesn't dry skin.
It doesn't cause breakouts either.
And it doesn't run off into clothing easily.. so snuggle away ;)
It also covers marks well.
So happy they have put it in a pump bottle cause to me that was the only down side to this foundation.
I wish I had the same result as the rest of you guys. I went to buy this because all the reviews keep praising this foundation. However I was disappointed with coverage and the formulation.
It is very runny, if it was not for the pump I would have had it everywhere. Yes it disappears into my skin but I can pretty much still see what's underneath and I would hate to pile up concealer. It would be good for skin that does not have a lot of blemishes.
I don't have all bad news. I love the fact that it does not transfer at all, and wears all day. Though I have a lil bit of shine.I will try to build it up a bit next time. My colleague said she likes that it gives a neutral look, not too much make-up look.
This foundation simply disappears onto my skin and takes care of any imperfection without being obvious, which is exactly what you want in a foundation. The formula of this foundation is really nice to work with and I find it’s very easy to blend and works great with my beauty blender.
This foundation is great for oily/combination skin and my skin looks absolutely amazing when wearing it. There is no shine or any sign of imperfections. It also lasts me the whole day (even in summer) which is a great plus point as I don’t want my foundation to flake off in the middle of the day.
This foundation really provides excellent coverage, but the only issue I have with it is the bottle. I would have loved a pump to dispense the foundation instead as this controls it a bit better and it’s less likely that I will spill it out (I can be quite clumsy at times).
Best foundation out there. I have used Estee Lauder's double wear foundation before which is rather pricey but does the job but the Color stay foundation is half the price and does the job even better! I have very oily skin and when I use any other foundation even if it has "oil control" it doesn't last more than two hours but this Revlon Color Stay foundation glides onto your skin - you don't even use a lot of it as a little goes a very long way. It doesn't give that caked look, but still covers perfectly. It lasts the whole day, just need a bit of a powder touch up at around 1pm then you are set again for the rest of the day. Your skin is still able to breathe through the foundation so it doesn't cause those nasty breakouts. It looks natural and blends in perfectly.

This foundation is one of the better on the market. It is a bit expensive but since I am not a regular user and only save it for special occasions it lasts and lasts. It provides a smooth finish that is even and matte. Is definitely recommended.
I've been using this one for a long time so haven't tried much else. It goes on evenly and covers a multitude of sins. It's also last long. I do find it a little heavy so don't wear it every day.
Doesn't interfere with my skin in terms of drying or itchiness. They have the perfect colour for my skin.
I LOVE THIS FOUNDATION =) its perfect for everyday use and isn't harsh on skin. I use it everyday to campus and on weekends, the foundation blends in smooth and flawlessly while the bottle last long for the price. It retails around R200 per bottle
While I love this product, the crux is that It appeared unnatural on my skin. However, that is my only quibble with it.
The nozzle gets a thumbs up because its hygienic. The foundation feels very light, provides medium coverage and really stayed put the whole day. Good for a drugstore brand:)
