Revlon ColorStay Makeup for Combination/Oily Skin

Great coverage, blends smoothly, and lasts all day. Lightweight feel with a flawless, natural finish. One of the best affordable long-wear foundations!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reliable Foundation Revlon ColorStay Foundation (Nude 200): This has been my go-to foundation for years, and it never lets me down. The coverage is medium to full but still feels breathable, and it keeps my skin looking matte all day without getting cakey. I have combination skin, and this foundation really controls shine without drying me out. The shade is just right for me and blends beautifully—plus, I appreciate the SPF protection. I’ve tried a lot of foundations, but I always come back to this one because it’s reliable, affordable, and looks great.

I've tried it all...but keep using this! I'm almost 61 & have had so many people comment on my "beautiful skin"...which if they saw my real face without this foundation, they would not be saying! It makes my face look evened out all day! Of course I powder over it 1-2x's/day, & use blush, but I do have spots from tanning a LOT when I was young (inside & out). Covers all up! Just "set it" with a good powder (I recommend Neutrogena Shine Control which I've also used for years & N.'s "Healthy Skin Blends" nayiral radiance bronzer which works even on my fair skin! Ķsorry for double review, but you must have a good, clear palette to work on b4 you use powder & blush & this foundation is IT! (From an artist's daughter." When I say years, I'm talking 15+ years!! I'm no young bunny. If it works I stick with it! This works! I'm fair skinned & use a #220. Also, has sunscreen in it - a great bonus!! Great product that's worked since day one... many, MANY years ago!

I likethe product but the color in the picture in nowhere near the same color. More of a medium Ivory color.

First, about me: light to medium skin tone, neutral undertones, 30 years old, female, combination/oily (mostly oily in T-Zone), acne prone (mostly hormonal), and I experience redness by my nose and cheeks. What I was looking for in foundation: medium/buildable coverage, controls oiliness, long lasting, doesn’t transfer, doesn’t budge, doesn’t settle into my pores or lines. What I have tried: - MAC prolong wear nourishing waterproof foundation in color NC27 — this color was great for the winter/early spring. It matched perfectly and didn’t oxidize. However, it did a terrible job with controlling my oiliness & shine. After a full day, it started to fill my pores and lines on my forehead. I was not even going to test it’s waterproof ability because it was just sitting on my face and would wipe off with just a light touch. Perhaps it just needs a good setting powder or spray (which I have not found yet). - Kat Von D Lock-it foundation — Um, this was a joke. The colors are not great. I tried two (I used online tools to find the right shade) and one was too yellow. The other was actually fine, but I had already tanned quite a bit by the time it was delivered, so it was a bit on the lighter side. I tried this product several ways, with and without primer, with and without setting spray, with and without setting powder... this product just will not “lock” down. It just sat on my face and was so much worse than the MAC. It was so disappointing. I almost feel like KVD means well, and the models on the site are diverse, but her products are just not meant for all skin types. I’ve definitely tried other products, but I wanted to mention those two because they kept popping up on my search for foundation and they are on the higher end of my budget. Finally, I came across this product: Revlon ColorStay for combination/oily skin. I’m not sure what you are looking for, but here is what I love about this product! This goes on so easily, smoothly and lightly, but with medium coverage that I can easily build. It looks so natural! It definitely controls my oily skin. There is a bit of shine after 10 hours, but I don’t look oily. If it bothers me, I just blot a little and it stays matte for even longer. Regardless of whether I use primer, or setting spray/powder, it does the same job! I love it! I got it in the color 310 Warm Golden, which is actually a perfect match. However, in case you didn’t catch on before, I tan very easily, so I just ordered it in Rich Tan. This foundation does not budge and I haven’t had any dramatic transfers like I’ve had with the other two products that cost almost 5x more than this product. I definitely recommend this for everyday use. I have not had any breakouts and I love that it has SPF. It feels natural and I forget I’m wearing makeup. I think this product went on best when applied with a brush with micro bristles (I ordered this flawless foundation brush on Amazon for about $7). One more thing, I have textured skin (pock marks from acne), and at first, I tried to use more product to fill it in, but it didn’t work. However, over time during the day, my skin looked flawless! One thing I did not like, but I’m willing to live with: for some reason it fills my pores a bit on my chin. I don’t know how to fix that other than to touch up or blot, but I have been searching for so long for something that I really like, I’m willing to hang on to this one. (I haven’t broken out from it either). If you’ve read this far, thank you. And good luck finding the right foundation for you. Hope this was helpful.

I love this product. It's not expensives, goes on smoothly and stays on well all day. A good buy.

Love this foundation! My favorite and I've tried many! Goes on smoothly and lasts all day. Never blotchy and feels great on the skin. Makes skin look perfect! The right amount of coverage.

I have a very oily T-zone, even when using my Becca mattifying primer. I was using Chanel Lumiere liquid foundation before this (not the one for oily skin, because I bought it in the winter when I was on a medication that gave me dry patches), which I loved, but I ran out and thought I'd give this much cheaper drugstore foundation with rave reviews a try. This foundation does prevent my typical t zone oil slick from developing when I wear it, even without mattifying primer. The coverage is great, especially with a couple of layers--a little of this goes a long way, so I would say that my typical application is thin. Since the bottle has no pump, I dip a clean q-tip into the bottle instead of touching the foundation and bottle with my fingers. I know that a lot of people hate foundations without a pump, but I like the fact that I can get EVERYTHING out. It kills me that I couldn't get to all of the makeup in my $60 bottle of Chanel foundation. That being said, this foundation feels SO thick on my skin. Maybe I'm just spoiled from using such a high quality liquid foundation before this, but I feel like my face is suffocating when I wear it. It feels like I'm covered in petroleum or something. I wore some just under my eyes, under my powdered mineral foundation yesterday, and when I tried to blend my eyeliner after this had dried, I realized how bad the consistency was...it was just sticky and thick. I guess the plus side to that is you definitely don't have to worry about transferring. It looks so unnatural to me. When I wear it my skin tone is even, blemishes and dark circles covered, but at a price!! My skin looks...weird. Older? I don't know. Just off in a bad way. I actually felt self conscious when I went out wearing this. Speaking of unnatural, the chemical smell of this...the chemicals IN this...I couldn't get over it like I thought I could. I used to be a nut about chemicals in my makeup and body care products....apparently some of that stuck, because I worry about my health when I put this on. My skin tone is hard to match because I'm biracial, so I was impressed that their golden beige worked well for me-- but it became too pale after I went to the pool one day. After that, this stuff really wasn't working for me. I've gone back to using Mineral Fusion loose mineral foundation (warm 2...you can buy this brand at Whole Foods or on Amazon!) instead of liquids in general. My skin looks flawless and natural while I still get full coverage and perfect color match. So Revlon Colorstay for oily/combo skin gets more like 2.5 stars despite my bad feelings for it because of how well it holds back oil, redness coverage, color range, low price....I gave this 3 instead of 2 stars because I was very impressed with the oil control and rarely find anything for oily skin that actually works. I'd rather apply a mattifying primer and pay more for a higher quality foundation than wear this, though.
