Maybelline Superstay Better Skin Skin Transforming Foundation in Classic Ivory
Bought from: Chedelyn Cosmetics
Bought for: P480
So, I have this holy grail foundation in my
stash. Can we keep it in the name: Maybelline Superstay Better Skin Skin Transforming Foundation? To know why
I love this, please keep on reading.
When my boyfriend and I went to Pop Culture,
Trinoma to visit Chedelyn Cosmetics last June (whoops, I already have this foundation
for like, 4 months), it was not in my intention to buy this Maybelline
Foundation. I was eyeing the Revlon one, but the seller insisted I get it along
with the Milani Conceal + Perfect Foundation because she said it's better. And
so I was sweet-talked into buying both. Now, I regret even regretting buying
this because it is so amazing!
The shade that I got here was the Classic
Ivory (120), perfect because I usually purchase classic ivory in most
foundation shades. Still, there are times when I get a different shade
especially if Classic Ivory is not among the options. Please be reminded that I
am not an expert in getting the right shade (I am so sorry huhu) so most of the
time, I had to ask the seller which fits me best. By the way, I have a fair
complexion with a yellow undertone. I think it's partly luck that this Classic
Ivory feels and looks like my skin.
Like most foundations, Maybelline Better
Skin Foundation is stored in a glass bottle with a blue plastic pump. Sometimes,
there is something wrong with it as it feels lose and its sometimes kinda hard to
dispense product. Sometimes, I have to pump twice or thrice to get my desired
amount. But at least, it does come out, right?
I guess the most intriguing part about it is
its claim to make your skin better-looking after days of continuous use. I mean,
who else bears the same claim? I won't trick you into buying this by saying
that this claim is true. No, it does not make my skin looks better in a span of
a month, not even after using this once in a while in four months. However, it
does not cause me zits, nor any skin imperfections probably because of the Salicylic Acid content. Also, I did not consider
using it just because of this kind of claim, but because it is such a nice foundation
that would back you up every freakin' day!
Are you aware that I have oily skin? If you
are having the same, oh well, this is extra plus for you as it dries fast and is
matte! This does not exactly delivers a flat matte finish unlike the Fit Me
variant though. This one still feels hydrating and moisturizing despite being
formulated oil-free. On the other hand, it may not be for those with dry skin
or those who undergo peeling as it tends to emphasize dryness.
The formula is very lightweight and offers light
to medium coverage. It is so easy to blend as well. In my case, a drop-sized
amount would be sufficient for my whole face. Longevity wise, I would pretty
much say it did pass for that matter as it can withstand humidity in the
country for a good 4-6 hours without retouch. Well, I don't really do retouch,
just a few blotting papers and loose powder to absorb excess oil then I'm good
to go.
Overall, I love Maybelline Better Skin Foundation!
And I highly recommend it to those with normal, combination to oily skin types.
It dries matte, easy to blend with up to medium coverage, long lasting, has no
pungent smell, affordable and hypoallergenic! I swear, this is one of the best drugstore
foundations that I have tried!
