    not worth the time, effort, and money

    by foxyfairview (12 reviews)
    If you compare this to the price of bareminerals or something like that, its waaay cheaper. So I gave it a shot. I know about the exfoliating, pre-moisturizing rule so I'm not lacking in that department. With that said, I dipped the brush (which is very akward to use) tapped the excess off, and started going at it with ciru... June 3, 2008, 12:46 pm If you compare this to the price of bareminerals or something like that, its waaay cheaper. So I gave it a shot. I know about the exfoliating, pre-moisturizing rule so I'm not lacking in that department. With that said, I dipped the brush (which is very akward to use) tapped the excess off, and started going at it with cirular motions-between my eyes also. After dipping and applying for about 5 minutes (which is too long just for foundation), I looked like I was wearing a mask, felt skin felt tight, and my eye lases were caked with this stuff. Throughout the day, it blened, then went sliding off. (I have combination skin) So this is a definite no. The bush also raises every peice of dry skin off of my face. It's a nightmare to use, and horrible when you get to lunch time. June 3, 2008, 12:46 pm

    not worth the price

    I paid $13.99 for this small bottle and was disappointed. The first application you put on will be nice (if you can get the powder to come out in a decent amount on the brush).

May 30, 2008, 9:56 am I paid $13.99 for this small bottle and was disappointed. The first application you put on will be nice (if you can get the powder to come out in a decent amount on the brush). It wears off very fast and I find myself applying it a LOT throughout the day. Also, pieces of the brush bristles would sometimes come off and stay on my face. i would not recommend or purchase this product again. May 30, 2008, 9:56 am

May 8, 2008, 4:56 pm I never use foundation. I cannot stand the feel of it on my skin. I saw this product and decided to try it and see how it made my skin look. I am getting older and noticed that my skin was uneven in color. Well I am very happy with this product. It lasts all day and my skin looks so nice. Its not thick and it doesnt feel like you have anything on it but it evens out your skin tone. I am very happy with this product. No problems. I have recommended it to my friends..

    Horrible product

    by moszk22 (4 reviews)
    Mineral foundation is supposed to not get oily during the day - this stuff is worse than wearing cheap liquid foundation. By lunchtime, I was a walking oil slick. I tried it 4 days in a row and couldn't stand it anymore - there's more $ down the drain... What a waste! April 24, 2008, 8:13 pm

    Get a new application brush!!!!

    by jillf22 (13 reviews)
    The brush for this mineral powder is horrible!! It is too small and stiff,it actually hurt when I was applying it. It also didn't cover well or last. I threw most of it away. The Loreal brand is much better!!!! May 20, 2008, 2:53 pm

    Not if you have dry skin!

    by kesaiz (4 reviews)
    This might work for women who have normal skin, but noy dry skin. It does not want to adhere and more ended up on my clothes than my face. If you try a heavier moisturizer first than watch out, because if you apply this foundation before it fully sets the foundation will only stick to the moisturizer February 26, 2008, 11:37 am

November 27, 2008, 12:25 pm alright i'm surprised at all the bad reviews im reading because i have this foundation because i absolutely LOVE the revlon colorstay products . this is by the far THE best miineral foundation i've had . i've tried bareminerals & it felt too heavy . i tried physicians formula & it did not last whatsoever so i decided to try this . & i love it . it's lightweight , provides AMAZING coverage with revlon colorstay blemish concealer , & my skin has been very clear lately . the secret to getting this foundation to work is to use a high quality powder , or kabuki brush . the brush that comes with this is USELESS . trust me & try it before you throw this amazing product away .
