Hey for anyone that's used revlon Colorstay foundation, what did you find we're the pros and cons?

Pros.. It has a matte finish.. It has a good color range (not too orangey).. It really does last awhile on.. It is full coverage so it pretty much covers all discoloration pretty well.. It's pretty affordable
Cons.. You have to spread it pretty quickly because it sets in fast.. It sometimes can emphasize dry patches on your face (make sure your face is exfoliated and moisturized
But yeah.. Overall I love it :) it's my favorite foundation. I apply it with elf's powder brush and love it
Hope this helps <3

I went to sample this at the store and was disappointed at the lack of a pump. then I tipped it up to try a bit and all I got was this clear oily stuff so I didnt buy it. seems like too much hard work!

Its long lasting, covers everything and didn't irritate my super sensitive skin. but it is a little heavy and I hate the lack of a pump. overall it is one of my favorite foundations, buy I go for a lighter one in the warmer months.

I love it! I stopped using my MUF foundation since I bought it actually. I found it looks best when I use either a stippling brush or my beauty blender though. My fingers and other flat foundation brushes made not look unnatural. It's full coverage and super build-able. The only cons I have are that you get a lot less product that the packaging would have you believe, and I can never get away with skipping a setting powder with this stuff. (I'm referring to Colorstay whipped).

Pros:
amazng staying power
good coverage
inexpensive
cons:
looks unnatural and sometimes too matte (it takes practice to find the right application technique)
has alcohol which can dry out skin
hard to blend
smells like paint
feels heavy on skin

even if you have oily skin I recommend the formula for dry skin because it looks a lot more natural, doesn't suck the moisture out of your skin, and is easier to work with.

I don't recommend using it in the summertime. It's a good foundation, but it can feel really heavy on the skin..

Pros: lasts all day

Doesn't break me out
Buildable coverage
Looks most natural with a beauty blender

Cons: can look cakey
Feels kinda heavy

Bottom line I love it over most other foundations, even high end ones. :)

Pros: lasts me up to 10 hours.
Medium to almost full coverage.
Easily mixable with a moisturizer to make tinted moisturizer.
Not too thick not too thin.
Cheap (saves $!)

Cons: no pump so it gets messy.
Sometimes it's hard to find the right shade.
