Unlike the foundation, I’ve had success with almost every form of application, including my fingers, brushes, a dampened beauty sponge, and my Blendiful. This means there’s ample play time to work it over the skin, blending out the edges to nothingness. It doesn’t dry down too fast either, which I’ve experienced with most of the drugstore concealers I’ve tried.

What I love about it is how light and thin the consistency of this formula is while still providing close to full coverage. Though it’s not quite to the level of my all-time favorite Frankie Rose My Lil’ Secret Concealer, it’s right up there.
Dare I say, it’s the best drugstore concealer I’ve used yet. While the foundation took some time getting used to, this concealer was an immediate smash hit for me. Revlon PhotoReady Candid Antioxidant Concealer ($9.99) Ultimately, I do recommend this foundation for lighter makeup days, but I’ll also be on the lookout for a better alternative. That’s much preferable to a foundation breaking apart and settling heavily into fine lines.

On the plus side, it doesn’t look bad as it wears off. It doesn’t last a whole eight hours on me, though, without fading away. I’m really digging the less-than-full coverage look right now, and this one is just heavy enough to suite my taste. I used an equal combination of the shades Ivory 130, which was a too light for me, and Nude 200. As you can see, it does result in a healthy, skin-like finish. In the picture below, I applied the foundation to one side of my face (your right) and left the other side of my face bare. The bristles strike the perfect balance between being dense and flexible, making it perfect for this stubborn foundation. Most brushes resulted in a streaky finish, with the exception of one: my Morphe X Jeffree Star JS1 foundation brush. Using a beauty sponge sheered out the foundation too much, and my Blendiful (which I love using with most foundations) didn’t spread it out easily enough, since it is initially thick in texture. It took several attempts to land on a tool that applies the product evenly and smoothly on the skin. The one source of frustration I have with this foundation is the application. If I do have any dark spots showing through, I simply cover them up using Lisa Eldridge’s pinpoint concealing technique.

It adds a subtle hydration to the skin without being overly dewy. Under those circumstances, this foundation is lovely. I like wearing this best when my skin is mostly clear (and, knock on wood, it has been lately). It is not sheer, but any breakouts I’m experiencing do peek through. This foundation is a true medium coverage. Does it enhance my skin and last a long time before breaking up? For the most part, yes, it does.
What I care about is how it works on the face. However, I’m no scientist, so please do enlighten me in the comment section if there’s some truth to this whole anti-pollution thing that I’m missing.Īll that being said, I don’t really mind if this foundation doesn’t have the anti-pollution powers it claims to possess.
It’s unlikely that the antioxidants in this foundation are doing much of anything. They are relatively unstable and require protective packaging (think vitamin C serum being stored in a darkened or opaque bottle) to maintain efficacy. While antioxidants can be beneficial–particularly in skincare–they aren’t necessarily a great addition to makeup. From what I understand, it is largely an empty term that usually means antioxidants have been added to the formula. What a name! The “anti-pollution” descriptor makes my eyes roll. Revlon PhotoReady Candid Natural Finish Anti-Pollution Foundation($10.99) This past year, they have begun to refresh their offerings, coming out with a line of foundations and concealers that created some buzz in the beauty community. Revlon had been lagging in that area for some time. Needless to say, it holds a special place in my heart.īase products, however, are not the first thing I think of when it comes to this brand. In fact, I wore a Revlon lippie in Blushed on my wedding day. They are especially known for their lipsticks, certain shades of which have been in production since the 1950s. When it comes to drugstore makeup, Revlon is a classic.
