The First Review. Revlon Colorstay Foundation for Oily/Combination

Hi, it's Thursday afternoon. today I am gonna do some review of Revlon Colorstay Foundation for Oily/Combination. 

Alright, first thing first I have very oily, acne-prone and sensitive skin. How great is that, to have those three on somebody skin. hence, I have to be very careful ingredients of skincare and makeup product that I use. when I was looking for a great drugstore foundation for oily skin, some beauty blogger, YouTuber recommend The Revlon Colorstay Foundation for Oily/Combination. So here it is. 

Okay, I bought it for IDR 145K on the Revlon Counter on the shade True Beige (320), which even though it's the darkest shade available in Indonesia, it still a little bit light for me 😣. 
The formula is liquid, and it says it offers 24 hours long-wearing with a flawless matte finish look. Hoho let's see how long it will really last on my super oily face in Yogyakarta where the temperature usually ranges from 25-34 Celcius (from morning to night). 

  • Without Primer 
After I blotted my face with a tissue to remove the excess of my sunscreen and moisturizer, I apply the foundation using a wet beauty blender. You know, it does really look flawless even though it didn't give much coverage. my acne and my pores are still very visible. Lastly, on top of the foundation, I give a RCMA translucent loose powder.

- How long it last? 
after almost 3 hour my face becomes really shiny, especially around my cheek and my forehead, and when I blotted my face with tissue some of the foundation left on the tissue. Oh No!. And it's cakey around my mouth area, I am not impressed. 
  • With Primer 
Again after using sunscreen, moisturizer and primer ( I use Catrice Prime and Fine because it's water-based primer the same with the foundation) I apply the foundation on my face and top it with RCMA.

-How long it last?
after 2 hour, my cheek starts to shine a little bit. after 4 hour my whole face becomes so shiny, so shiny that it can light up the dim room. It's also cakey on around my mouth and my cheek. I don't know why the foundation won't last longer though I already using primer. 

After all, I don't think this foundation work for me, I don't like how it makes my skin cakey, and seems flat plus still looks oily. it also cause acne on my skin when I didn't clean it properly (which meant cleanse my face a few time). but my sister seem to like this foundation, well her skin is good (no acne, no big pores and not oily). Well, I guess what works for me may not work for others. 

Well, that's all I can tell you about my personal review of Revlon Colorstay Foundation for Oily/Combination. Thanks, bye bye. 

Edit: Turn out The Revlon Colorstay foundation is silicon-based, so that's why when I applied it with my Catrice prime and fine primer (which is water-based) they didn't work well and my face start to get oily much quicker than when I'm not using primer at all.
