I have dry skin - with persistent irregular Feuchtigkeitspflege- skin cells on the nose, cheeks and forehead and minor redness. With some make-up products that my skin responded at times with strong greasing on the T-zone.
If it helps someone in the choice of color: I have the Moisture Rich Foundation Bobbi Brown in color 00 Alabaster and would assess themselves somewhere between 00 and 0 Alabaster Porcelain, the latter especially in the summer. All drugstore Foundations like the All Matt Plus Catrice are too dark in the brightest shade.
110 Ivory fits perfectly with my skin tone, I do not have to be great blind and you see no transitions to the neck.
I would describe the color against many opinions as fairly neutral, it is not great pink appearance in my eyes. I have a skin with easy olivem undertone ('m a typical winter type) and this Foundaton not bite with my skin tone.
Also darken it does not for me, what I find insanely great! This problem I have, in almost all favorable Foundations (Catrice, Max Factor, Astor etc).
I need a very small amount of the make-up to cover the whole face with it can be. After a short time you will find out, how much product you need and the removal can be done without the much criticized lack of pump dispenser afloat. I do it so: let run out a little make-up on my fingers, then it distribute in the face and "edited" the Foundation then go to the tool of my choice.
The Color Stay holds in fact for a long time on the skin, without running or crawling in wrinkles / pores. It is so durable that I easily can me blow nose or grab the face, without disappearing from these places. Also I feel that they are less rub off due to their adhesion to textiles, as other Foundations that I have so used. On Smartphone she leaves no makeup-Schlieren.
I do not need powdering as they damn long matted (on a "quiet" day without great Schwitzeinlagen it remains up to 10-12 hours as beautiful, as just applied - after which the skin has a slight sooooo "Glow" (no gloss) on the T-zone, but neither greasy nor greasy look, but of course). But even after Zumba or other physical exertion, have the sweating result, the make-up remains right where it was - the skin looks after the welding was blotted, still as good as before. What I also really great find - after you've been sweating, the skin has no trace of this typical lasting "Anstregungsröte" I had especially with the All Matt Plus Catrice all extreme.
Skin cells are stressed excessively, because I had much worse candidate in the test - very dry skin do not fall unduly or adversely affect, they completely "disappear" does not create this Make Up unfortunately, but this is not promised. It is very important for me that the Foundation after application, no new dry spots "dazuerfindet".
Applied over moisturizer or cream mixed with skin cells are fortunately still less noticeable.
Immediately after the order, I feel as if the Foundation "contract" my skin a little, but it will disappear after a short time and I can not feel the product on my skin. My skin, I would be described as sensitive, is not dried out (but not maintained!) And also impurities / lower bearings has the make up no given me.
When applying the Color Stay is unpretentious - with make-up egg, a Kabuki or with your hands, the order goes with everything quickly and easily. I've learned that you can still incorporate better and quicker the Foundation with slightly damp tool.
They can also submit well with oil (melaleuca did and rose oil used) mix or day cream, then it draws a felt better and leaves a more natural finish. Also on primer (use the Catrice Prime and Fine) makes them ideal.
It leaves a velvety feeling and Powder and cream products can be blind to her also good; Another big plus: Rouge and contour disappear or do not fade over time!
Redness it conceals excellent, as it balances the complexion of outstanding. Only at extremely inflamed pimples or severe dark circles I would still zusätlich use concealer.
The Make Up also contains fine shimmer, but I do not feel is intrusive or conspicuous.
The only thing I have to complain about is the packaging - a pump dispenser would have been yet more practical. But since it is whining at a high level and easy to outweigh the benefits of Color Stay, I give it no penalty. I would recommend the Foundation with a clear conscience!

One sees how the Revlon suggests in comparison to the other products and that they can be more than excellent)
My arm is as bright as my face roughly. So you see - light is not the same light, the darkening of some Foundations is very extreme (especially the Catrice representatives).
