Makeup Spotlight: Maybelline Super Stay Foundation in Classic Ivory

Hello Awesome Readers~

Here's yet another foundation review for all of you! Don't you just love heavy duty and long lasting makeup? For a tropical country like Philippines, makeup that lasts longer and has better coverage yet lightweight is what beauty enthusiasts look for. Something that will still let our skin breathe at the same time evening out and covering our imperfections. Well ladies I can say that search is over with this foundation that I will be featuring today.


Meet Maybelline Super Stay Foundation! Liquid foundation can't get any better than this! Let's get to know Maybelline Super Stay Foundation closer.

What is Maybelline Super Stay Foundation? (400+php)

According to the website, Maybelline Super Stay Foundation is a Do-It-All, Through-It-All foundation. It has micro-flex formula that provides 24-hour wear that guarantees no transfer. It claims to withstand heat, sweat and humidity. It's also oil-free, dermatologically tested and fragrance free. This liquid foundation is suitable for all skin types. It is available in 12 different shades.

Here's what I think about this foundation.



Packaging:

PROS
simple yet classic packaging
glass container
slimmer container compared to my other liquid foundations but has same content
travel friendly because of it's packaging
properly labelled 

CONS
this is one of my major concerns, it has NO PUMP
tendency to get messy upon application

Product:

PROS
feels light on skin - almost like your wearing nothing on
good coverage
smooth consistency and easy to blend
definitely buildable
doesn't really tranfer
long wear I didn't need to retouch every couple of hours. 
really fragrance free
No skin reactions

CONS
too runny formula you need to be careful when puting some on the back of your hand




Pigmentation:

PROS
really good pigmentation and even if it's lighter than my skin tone it somehow blends on my skin well
good coverage

CONS
none

Longevity:

PROS
really heavy duty foundation
it lasts really long but not totally 24 hours. 

CONS
can get oily on some areas when it wears off



Application:

PROS
super easy to apply brush or fingers will do
easy to blend and not cakey at all
buildable

CONS
can be a little bit hard to control the product because there's no pump

Now time to get this thing tested!!











CONCLUSION:

Maybelline Super Stay Foundation is my new found love liquid foundation. I think this beats if not levels at par with Revlon Colorstay foundation which I happen to have reviewed HERE. I love the fact that it is really light weight. It almost feels like second skin. It has a really smooth finish and it doesn't create an ashy finish. I'm also hands down to its staying power. It is indeed a SUPER STAY foundation. It lives up to if not all most of what it claims to be. Definitely a keeper! The only thing that saddens me is that it's not available locally. I only got this through an online private selling click HERE to read my post about this and it's not widely available in the market. That's the only thing that sucks but the product itself and it's performance is beyond compare! By the way the shade I got which is in Classic Ivory was a tad lighter than my skin tone but i didn't have any issues on it. This defintely got my APPROVAL and I would really suggest to get your hands on this! Again it's way better than my Revlon Colorstay Foundation I assure you!

Have you tried this?
