Revlon ColorStay Mineral Mousse - a review

I have been using Revlon Colorstay for combo/oily skin, and I really like it, so I decided to branch out and try the Revlon Colorstay Mineral Mousse.

I really don't like it. I feel like I need to use a lot of product in order to get the desired effect. Plus I fell like this makes me look too matte, which can make the skin just look dry and in some cases flaky. Even early in the day it seemed to make my skin look dry and flaky. I don't know if maybe it is the application, but I have tried everything, brush, fingers, sponges, and I always seem to waste more product than I use on my face. Plus I have to say I feel like this transfers a lot easier than the regular Colorstay liquid foundation. I am just not a fan of this product. I am sure there are people who like this, but it isn't for me. It is simply too matte and too much of a hassle to work with. If you want to try a Colorstay foundation, I say stick with the liquid foundation.

For reference, this is what I looked like after application this morning.



This is what I looked like after about 9 hours of wear

I will admit, this does seem to last throughout the day, but the liquid Colorstay beats the Mineral Mousse in that department hands down. You may like this foundation if you love a really matte look, because the Mineral Mousse delivers in that department, but stay away if you don't like that look.

Revlon Colorburst Lipsticks

I have been trying so hard to save money for the MAC Venomous Villains collection. I've been doing pretty good, but when I went shopping with my mom the other day, I just couldn't stop myself from grabbing some Revlon lipsticks and a Grow Luscious Mascara.

Peach


Soft Rose


Carnation

I bought Carnation before I bought the other shades, and I just love it. It is such a wonderfully bright pink. I like the Peach and Soft Rose, but I don't think I like them as much as Carnation. I would definitely recommend Carnation if you are looking for a good pink. They are fairly moisturizing, and look just lovely on.

I actually saw the lipsticks and the mascara mentioned on Melissa's channel. She loves the mascara, so I am looking forward to trying that out!

Now I need to go back to saving for Venomous Villains.
