I'm gonna go and get this foundation later tonight or tomorrow. I've fallen out of love with my MUFE HD (I'm so fickle). I'm so annoyed I missed the BOGOF @ CVS Grrr!

For me, the most effective way of removing stubborn silicone-based makeup (e.g., Revlon Colorstay on my stippling brush and gel eyeliners on my eyeliner brush) is by first dissolving the makeup with a few drops of oil (I use grape seed/rice bran oil) before washing off with mild shampoo.

Nevertheless, over time, the white fibers of the stippling brush invariably absorb and retain some of the pigments from the makeup no matter how anal I am about cleaning them. The downside of having white bristles, I suppose.

Re: Revlon Color Stay Foundation

So I don't think this foundation is working out too well and I can't find the receipt for it. This sucks. I really wanted to love it cause its cheap lolz!!

Re: Revlon Color Stay Foundation

I just picked this up today from Walgreens. I've been matched as an NC25 and an NC20 by different MUAs, so I'm probably somewhere in between.

I got Buff in this. If it's too light, I'll probably go with the sand beige. I think I have more pinky undertones to my skin - so would I go with something more or less pink to even it out? I've only used BE up until now, so I'm really new at all this color matching stuff, lol.

I read somewhere else (can't remember where now) that the Neutrogena cleansing wipes are good for taking this stuff off. I grabbed a pack of those too; they're six bucks for a pack of 24 (I think).

Re: Revlon Color Stay Foundation

Just got this in Fresh Beige in oily/combo today! I'm NC30 but this past winter has made me more pale. I tried this when I got home and looks like it should be a match. Hopefully this will work out since I'm trying to incorporate more wallet-friendly makeup into my collection.

Re: Revlon Color Stay Foundation

i have been using color stay for years - i did like the old formula better though

i am glad everyone else seems to love it, too!

Re: Revlon Color Stay Foundation

Not liking it so far, but maybe I was just expecting too much OR I didn't use enough? I never ever ever use liquid foundation, so it'll pobably take me a while to figure out how much to use, I guess.

The color match seems to be alright, but it's accentuating my pores like whoa.

Re: Revlon Color Stay Foundation

I used this for the first time today in 110 Ivory. I had bought this shade and Buff when CVS had their BOGO sale (I wasn't sure which one would work out best for me). Ivory was an excellent match for my NC15/NW15 skin. The coverage was great and I loved the way my skin looked with this foundation (for my first application I just used a makeup sponge...went on flawlessly)! I ended up exchanging Buff for another bottle of Ivory. So far I'm liking this much more than MAC's Studio Sculpt

I'm not sure about a drugstore foundation, I've hear dmixed views on that brand

Re: Revlon Color Stay Foundation

Re: Revlon Color Stay Foundation

Grrrr..I've been in 3 stores and all have been out of Caramel! The search continues tomorrow.

Re: Revlon Color Stay Foundation

So I've used it for a couple days now and I really like it. I worked both Sat and Sun and my makeup looked the same, minus some smudged eyeliner. I'm thinking of picking up golden beige in case I get darker during the summer.

Arrrrgh!!! I feel your pain!

I managed to get the last 2 Caramels (one in each formula) in the nearest Duane Reade to me this afternoon.

I'm gonna try and get one more oily/combi bottle though. Fingers crossed I'm able to get one before Sunday (when I fly home

).
