Revlon ColourStay Foundation

This little product was from a recent Boots browse, you honestly must think i shop no where else... however i have ordered a couple things from Superdrug this week. Anyway i originally ordered the No7 Matte foundation but this came in the post, so i thought i would try it anyway.

I was pleasantly surprised, as with most (basically all) of the products i have reviewed on this blog has been mentioned by some other bloggers, where-as this has been mentioned by everyone. Even my friends, which is some sort of revelation as they never want to talk about make-up.

This is the Revlon Colour- Stay foundation in shade Buff 150, it is usually £12.49 from Boots. There are two versions of this, i have got the oilier skin type version. 

To start with the packaging is OK, however i hate how there is no pump! I end up pouring out too much on to my hand (as i am awful with measurements) and wasting it!
The foundation itself is lovely, it is very smooth and looks flawless on the face. I have found the best way to apply it is with a brush (Real Techniques expert face brush).
Throughout the day it seems to wear very well, however if you do have one or two spots i recommend wearing a concealer as-well because they will start to show nearing the end of the day.
I do wear concealer under my eye as it will not cover those, however my under eye circles are very dark so i would not hold it against this foundation.
The oil control is better than most foundations, though i did need to apply powder to my face.
Overall this is a lovely foundation, it didn't break me out and makes me look lovely in pictures! What more can i ask for? 
This is a definite recommendation from me!

Benefit Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow Foundation - Sample

Just before the summer holidays i went to the Benefit Counter to buy a few skincare bits, anyway i got talking to the Benefit lady about foundation and she ended up giving me this sample to try. It is a 3 ml sample, so can last quite a while.
I wanted to talk about this as it retails for around £20.00, which is a lot so my question was, is it worth it?


 The shade i was given was 'i am so money- honey', and if i bought the foundation i would get the lighter shade.
A great thing about this foundation after wearing it for a couple of days, it did not break me out!
But i found it quite hard to blend, and it dried fast on your face.I definitely did not feel that it brightened my face up, just it covered up what it needed to.

This is definitely a medium-full coverage foundation.

 For those with oily skin (like myself),  it is oil free but not matte!
Overall i probably at the moment would not buy this product at full price, but things could change!

What did you think about this foundation? Have you tried it?
