So this is going to be a post on what foundation I prefer out of-
Maybelline 24HR SuperStay Foundation and Revlon PhotoReady Foundation.
So first up is the Maybelline foundation (I am in the shade 30 sand) - the claim is that it 'lasts for 24 hrs, transfer resistant, and moves flexibly with your skin'. Ok, it does't last for 24 hours but it does last a good 6 hours I would say. It isn't entirely transfer resistant as I was once left with foundation marks on a white t-shirt. However I love this foundation. It comes in a glass jar (not so great) but it has an easy to use pump that dispenses just enough product. The fact that it has SPF 19 in it is amazing as that gives your face so much protection and you don't even need to worry about putting another sun protecting product on. The formula is great, it's so easy to work with. Whether you use a foundation brush, a stippling brush, a sponge or your fingers to apply foundation, this will work anyway. This foundation gives pretty full coverage which I love. It also covers most imperfections and large pores and it gives your face a real matte finish. Where I live, I can pick this foundation up for £9.19. I think that is an amazing price for what this foundation does. I can't rave about it enough.
Now onto the Revlon one. I saw this on a YT video and it looked great. So I picked up one in the shade '007 Cool Beige'. I tried it out and was really disappointed. Normally I apply my foundation with a sponge but that didn't work. Neither did applying it with my fingers, a stippling brush or a foundation brush. It was so hard to work with and blend. It looked patchy on my skin and didn't last long at all. It claims to give you an 'airbrush finish' but it didn't make my skin look smooth like the Maybelline one does. Also this foundation is more expensive. At £12.99 I really don't think it's worth the money.
Stay Glamorous,
