Revlon ColorStay Whipped Creme Makeup

Great drugstore foundation!

I love the coverage and finish of the liquid colorstay, but it always gave me horrible breakouts. The whipped version has salicylic acid in it which I think helps me not to breakout. This foundation is VERY heavy in silicones so I don't use a primer underneath. This foundation controls oil almost as much as the liquid version, but I prefer the oil control in the whipped colorstay because it gives a more natural look. The finish is matte but gives a radiant look to the skin. The best ways I have found to apply this foundation is with your hands or with the elf powder brush! I find the look of this foundation gets better as the day goes on. I wore this for homecoming and it truly stayed on for over 10 hours looking great! Definitely a must try! I'm giving it a 9 instead of a 10 because the packaging is not the most hygienic, but I guess it's the only option because this foundation is so thick. Also, it gives slightly less coverage than the liquid colorstay. (I would still consider it a medium-full coverage foundation)
