RIMMEL STAY MATTE FOUNDATION



I love love LOVE this foundation! I only bought it yesterday but I wore it for the whole day today. I applied it at 7:30am and now it is 18:40pm and I am still impressed with it. It lasted me a good nine hours which was really surprising to me. I got a tiny bit shiny within the last two hours but it wasn't bad at all. I tried going over it with a powder to see if that worked and it did to an extent but I wouldn't wear it any longer than 10 hours. Which is perfect for me because it lasted me from when I left for college to when I got home.



This foundation has quite a thick mousse like consistency but even thought it's thick it's still pretty easy to work with. I applied it on one side of my face using my real techniques buffing brush and on the other side I used my real techniques complexion sponge. Both of these worked quite well but I prefer using the brush because I feel like it gave more coverage and a little really goes a long way with this foundation.


I set this foundation with a powder even though it's not wet or sticky, I'm just used to setting all my foundations with powder. It gave me a really flawless looking coverage and I'm really happy with the result.
I will definitely be repurchasing this when it runs out because I am obsessed with it! Thanks for reading :)

  2. I quite like this foundation as well, although it felt really thick when I applied it, it actually felt really light on my skin!
