Rimmel London Stay Matte Foundation REVIEW


 Hi there friends,


So I bought my tube of Stay Matte Foundation from a local Boots store in good faith, and it hasn't let me down yet.
When I went into the store my intention was to purchase the same old foundation I get every month or so, as I was browsing I came across this tube right at the bottom of the shelf. The packaging didn't stand out to me so its strange that I even noticed it, after I picked it up and started investigating it came to my attention that this was a mousse foundation.
I have never bought a foundation from a tube before and the only 'mousse' type foundation I have ever used is the Dream Matte Mousse. (everybody has had this) What stood out to me was the word 'lightweight' which was wrote on the front, now it was about 25 degrees that day and it really intrigued me!

The price was £5.99, a bit cheaper than my usual foundation even though they both contained the same amount in them.
When I got home I decided to squeeze some onto my hand, the texture was lovely. So smooth and soft, it blended so well and a little went a long long way. I couldn't wait for the next day to actually use this on my face!! Again, a little went a long way and I found myself blending this in with my fingers rather than a brush which was a lot easier although I think a beauty blender would work even better. The colour matched my skin perfectly, and it was definately light weight but with very very good coverage.

What I really like about this foundation is that you can build it up, if you have broke out and you find yourself needing more coverage than you would normally, just put a bit more on and it covers lovely. 

The foundation definately gets rid of the shine of your face but makes your face look dewey. Some people do like this so if you do this would be everything you want! But for me, I like having a very matte face, so I apply the Rimmel Matte Face Powder over top and perfect!

If there are are foundations you guys recommend feel free to leave a comment and let me know, I love trying new things!

  1. I love the sound of this, the only mousse foundation I have used before is dream matte mousse like you, and that stuff was gross! This actually sounds really nice though, and i love how lightweight it is!
