Revlon ColorStay Makeup for Normal/Dry Skin

I still remember when i was in my teens, i was pretty new to makeup and everything related to beauty. I have always had a hard time choosing foundation , It was hard to choose the right shade and something with the right  amount of coverage and of course with the affordable price. Then i was introduced to Revlon ColorStay Makeup for Normal/Dry Skin

I remember standing at Alfatah for hours, looking confused. Then came the day , when i was introduced to the magical world of Revlon Color stay foundation.When I first purchased this foundation back in I dunno 2006?? I got it in Normal / dry skin formula and Shade MEDIUM BEIGE. But now I am more tanned (NC35) and shade which suits me more is natural tan in Revlon ColorStay Foundation. Now let me share one thing I noticed when I was picking up this foundation at walmart. The shades are different in each formula e.g : the golden beige was tad lighter in Revlon ColorStay Foundation Combination/Oily compared to Revlon ColorStay Foundation normal/dry. So if you are buying this foundation online , do your homework and google as many swatches as you can to get your perfect match. My mom is NC30 and she wear Revlon ColorStay Foundation Combination Oily skin in golden beige.

Cons :

• Feels a bit sticky when you  first start applying. I recommended using a stippling brush or Fingers
• Harder to remove , use makeup remover wipes instead of washing face
• I wish it came come with a pump

I hardly wear makeup in summers, but when i am going out in humid , hot weather i take a small amount of Revlon Colorstay,  and mix it with my favorite moisturizer and apply with my Coastal scents Stipple brush / ELF powder brush. It gives me such natural glow . Love it
