Product Review: Revlon ColorStay Makeup For Combination/Oily Skin, Medium Beige (#240)

This has been labelled as a "Holy Grail" product by so many bloggers and vloggers, so when I saw 50% off at Chemist Warehouse I took it as my prime opportunity to test it out.  Prior to trying this I was switching between Dior and Napoleon foundations, so I have to admit I am probably a little more critical of this product that I should be.

My initial opinion; considering the formula is specifically for combination/oily skin, on the first day I used it I was somewhat disappointed by the sheen which developed across my T-zone by lunch time. The only other product I've used where I've needed a powder touch up was Nude by Nature.

So day 2 & 3 I used a different moisturiser & primer and while I'm still working through the ultimate combination of products, I think I'm starting to appreciate this product more, mostly for the longevity. I have never had a foundation stay put for so many hours. It really is Colourstay!

So my plan is to continue using this while I work on the ultimate formula or moisturiser, primer & foundation.

I'll keep you updated when I finally figure out my optimal combination of products, however until then I highly recommend giving this product a try.

On another note, I had a highly anticipated purchase arrive in the mail yesterday, and I'm hoping I have a chance to use it in the next couple of days so I can share it with you.
