About this deal

Another detail I noticed is that this foundation doesn’t need immidiate setting to work perfectly. It won’t crease right away, so you do have a little time to smooth rough edges up. Right off the bat, I could see that the foundation melted perfectly with my skin, not sitting on top of it but creating a perfect skin-like canvas to work with. Before continuing on, however, I may need to point a little something out. I have combination to oily skin, with an actively oily T-zone – particularly my nose – and the remaining oily point of my face are my cheeks (the area closer to my nose) and my chin. Compared to my nose, however, these two take a little more time to get oily throughout the day. My nose is definitely the most challenging, followed by my forehead, chin and cheeks.

The matte finish claim couldn’t be more on point, even when paired with a setting spray that leans more towards the dewy side. The Mario Badescu Facial Mist is my go-to for powder accidents and dewy skin, and for this foundation to mantain its matte finish anyway it’s kind of amazing! To set the base in place, I used the RCMA ‘No-Colour Powder’, which is a loose setting powder, and Mario Badescu’s ‘Facial Spray with Aloe, Chamomile and Lavender’, which isn’t really a proper makeup setting spray but I like to live dangerously. When I spritzed the mist and called it a day on my look, it was 9:20 am. 1 (very) small dot blended in with a damped beauty sponge (Real Technique Face & Body sponge)

minutes later, my forehead and my cheeks also started to get oily; the center of my forehead was kind of visibly so, but my cheeks looked pretty normal still.

When it comes to performance, I feel like that’s when the product actually shines the most. I always test my foundations without re-touching it to see how well it works, and I was beyond impressed with the resiliance of this one. You have to admit, more than 6 hours without a breakthrough of oil is pretty impressive! Moving on to the more aesthetic part, there is actually a few things one might say about this foundation. Looking for a full coverage, demi-matte foundation that doesn't crease? Introducing the Conceal & Define Full Coverage Foundation. This bad boy has an oil free, breathable formula that seamlessly blends out for streak-free application! If you have a combination to oily skin type, this is going to be your new holy grail. I believe it would work nice for a normal to dry skin type as well, since it’s not an overwhealmingly dry foundation, but I would recommend a proper priming and moisturizing routine beforehand.The Matte Base foundation promises not only a matte texture, but also a pore-blurring and full coverage finish. These claims are quite ambitious for such a low price point; so, how much of it is true? A sleek, soft and smooth base… What’s not to love!? Housed in a luxe glass bottle with a jumbo doe-foot applicator, this foundation offers precision and greater control. The highly pigmented, buildable coverage means that you can apply a small amount to allow your natural complexion to shine through or you can layer the foundation to achieve a more full coverage effect that conceals blemishes and evens out skin tone. Meet your matte made in heaven with our latest addition to the Revolution foundation family - Matte Base Foundation. Designed with team matte mantra in mind - because not everyone can do dewy! This foundation offers a mattifying solution for oily, blemish-prone complexions - or for those who simply prefer a matte finish. Launching in 24 skin-true shades and a range of undertones, this full-coverage foundation boasts a long-wearing, matte finish that still manages to feel lightweight and comfortable on skin, whilst diffusing the appearances of pores for a blurred, airbrush-like finish. Designed in a sleek, travel-friendly tube with pin-worthy rose gold accents.

My nose became visibly oily about an hour later, when the makeup had been on for roughly 7 hours and a half. At this point, you could really tell my nose was straight up oily and not just highlighted. On one hand, it’s very practical and easy to carry around. On the other hand, though, it gives off kind of a cheap-feeling vibe. In terms of coverage, I am definitely impressed by this foundation. I have to be honest and admit that I did not expect much out of this product, especially when it comes to coverage. I wouldn’t label it as a proper full coverage base, but it definitely is a medium to full coverage buildable formula.Since this product claims to be full coverage, I decided to start with a smaller amount and see how much I would need for a perfect base. I wasn’t really bugged about it, 6 hours without re-touches is a pretty good result in my book – especially considering how oily my nose is! After almost 11 hours, when I finally decided to take the makeup off, I inspected my face closely one last time. I noticed that my foundation had started to disrupt in the area around my nose. It was fading gracefully, I’ll give you that, but it was starting to become noticeable.

Offering a buildable coverage and available in 50 shades, this inclusive foundation is designed to suit all skin types and tones. The long lasting, creamy texture dries down into a demi-matte finish and the oil-free formula prevents the foundation from settling into fine lines or clinging to dry patches.The finish of this foundation is a proper matte one; not silky, not semi-matte: a proper, true matte finish. Much like with the coverage, I was positively impressed by the finish of this product. I sure did not expect it to be this opaque, and I am fairly pleased by this detail. Surprisingly, the two melted together perfectly. The spots where I placed and blended out the concealer were not only pleasantly highlighted, but also offered a nice silky (almost dewy, but not quite) finish. The ‘pore-blurring’ element of this foundation is definitely present, although not overwhealming. It does help a considerable amount when it comes to smoothing out pores, but it will work even better with a pore-blurring primer. Customise your coverage with this buildable formula by applying with a damp beauty sponge for a ‘real-skin’ finish. To amp up the coverage and diffuse over blemishes and imperfections, buff and blend the product into skin with a synthetic brush. Get a full face of matte base and follow with Matte Base Concealer, to conceal, contour, and highlight. For an ultra-matte finish and added longevity, finish with Matte Base Powder, to set and perfect your base.
