Has Anyone Tried Rimmel London #StayMatteSwitch?
In my VoxBox from influenster.com, I received a full size tube of Rimmel London Stay Matte foundation. For a grocery store brand, it's pretty awesome. It is insanely light. It feels like a mousse. My sample was True Ivory 103. As I started to apply it, I thought for sure it was going to be too light. But, it blended beautifully. It is so soft and light on my skin. I did learn the hard way that a little goes a long way. Which, is good now that I know. It should last quite a long time. My skin is a bit on the oily side naturally, so I did notice it was a bit greasy after extended wear. But, even after blotting, it still looks pretty good. But, for a price tag under $6, it worked better than most of the drugstore brands I've tried. (That's saying a lot since I was the cosmetics manager at a grocery store for years. I've tried almost all of them!) So, here is my "classic go to look". I try to keep it pretty mellow for days up on campus. :)

Does it dry like powder? I'll have to try this one!
ReplyDeleteNo Lourdes, that is my single criticism of this foundation. I have naturally oily skin. By the end of the day, it's pretty greasy using this brand. It definitely isn't powdery. But, if I use a good powder over top, it holds on for 6-8 hours without looking shiny. If you have dry/normal skin, I would bet you could go a lot longer.
