Revlon colorstay is probably the most famous drugstore foundation in North America. It's a liquid foundation that comes in a wide range of color and two finishes, one for normal to oily skin and one for normal to dry skin. The former offers a bit more coverage.
I own the normal to dry skin version in the color 150 buff which is an ivory color.
What I like about this foundation is that it gives a medium coverage and that the color I chose is great for covering redness. It has a satin finish.
Here's my face prior to application of the foundation
And now with the foundation
As you can see it does highlight a bit the redness around my eyes, but it covers redness quite well.
Pros
- Extensive color range
- good staying power
- Provides a solid medium coverage
- Natural satin finish
Cons
- Can be a bit drying
- The coverage is not buildable, it becomes cakey when you layer it
- No pump
I think this is a very good foundation for the price, and it's quite hard to fin a drugstore foundation with neutral or yellow undertone in the fair shades. I wouldn't say this is my HG foundation for my skin type, but this foundation is a great value. I think it's better for less dry skin tones.
