Review: Revlon ColorStay Makeup Foundation for Combo/Oily Skin in Golden Beige

I’ve been noticing recently that all of my foundations have been too light for my skin tone. I guess I have been spending too much time in the sun this summer so I needed a new liquid foundation pronto. I wanted to try out a drugstore foundation because the only one that I still use is the Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Loose Powder foundation. However, I’ve been leaning more towards liquid foundations so I decided ColorStay was the way to go. I’ve heard nothing but good things about it so I was very excited to try it out.

Revlon ColorStay Makeup Foundation for Combo/Oily Skin is said to have “Longwearing coverage …

Anytime I enter a CVS, Walgreens, or Target, I always leave with some type of makeup product. Throughout the years, I’ve found a few favorites from the drugstore that I cannot live without. Here is a list of makeup products that I feel should be in your collection:

Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Mineral Loose Powder – When I am in a rush, I tend to just throw on some powder, concealer, do my brows, and put on mascara before I head out the door. I feel like powder foundations are faster and easier to work with than liquid foundations. I was solely a Bare Minerals foundation user but then I found this …

Review: Buxom Show Some Skin Weightless Foundation

Now that it’s getting warmer, it’s time to put away those full coverage foundations and bring out the tinted moisturizers and lightweight foundations! I like to use lightweight foundations during the spring and summer because I do get very oily, and the more makeup I put on my face the more likely it tends to melt off. I decided to go to Sephora and pick up this new light coverage foundation from Buxom.

Buxom Show Some Skin Weightless Foundation is said to be “A featherweight foundation with light to medium coverage and SPF 30 protection. Weightless …
