Step away from the highlighter: After years of gleaming, shimmery skin being in fashion, matte face makeup is finally in vogue again. But this isn't a retro, I-was-assaulted-with-a-loaded-powderpuff matte face; the modern matte look demands that skin looks flawlessly airbrushed, but still completely natural -- no easy feat. Rimmel London updates its best-selling Stay Matte makeup line with new Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation, a feather-light formula designed to deliver a matte look without a cake-y texture. We asked top bloggers and TotalBeauty.com reviewers to try Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation and give us their honest feedback: Is this their matte makeup match? Read on to find out.

A Drugstore Steal
"I have used other liquid foundations from Maybelline, CoverGirl and Revlon. Nothing works as well as this! I had no shine whatsoever, no matter how often I looked in the mirror. This is a great product and worth a try!" --Angelamay14, TotalBeauty.com reviewer

A Perfect Matte Match
"The cool thing about Rimmel's site is that you can actually upload your own picture (or use a model that has a close skin tone to yours) and test the foundation shade. I picked out ivory since it looked great when I "tried it on," and wouldn't you know, it was a perfect match! This medium-coverage foundation was pretty easy to apply and kept my face nice and matte." --Noelle Pereira, blogger, XONoelle.com

Sticks Around Until Happy Hour
"I think the foundation lasted very well through these ridiculously hot and humid days we've been having. I got a good eight to nine hours of wear without much fading or quality loss, and I have insanely oily skin that most makeup just slides right off of. I think it's definitely worth a second look at the drugstore." --strawberrytime, TotalBeauty.com reviewer

Shows Off Your Face, Not Your Makeup
"This foundation has a mousse-like consistency which I really enjoy. The matte finish leaves your skin feeling soft, and with the coverage being lightweight, you can definitely still see your skin -- not a thick layer of makeup. For those who prefer a lightweight makeup with light coverage and a matte finish, this is a great product." --Angela Lanter, blogger, AngelaLanter.com
